I've been hearing constant whining that the movie has done an injustice to the book by not accurately portraying it. While, I thought the novel was marvelous, the movie was just as beautiful - in a different way. Anne was portrayed in the book as the most selfish, craziest girl in the world, making the reader have no sympathy for her whatsoever. In the movie, they tried to show the viewers a more vulnerable side to Anne. Natalie Portman was devilishly good in this movie and you could really feel the pain she was in near the end.
Eric Bana (incredibly charismatic) and Scarlett Johansson played their roles well as well, but Johansson never truly shone for me. She was the background prop while Portman took the lead, perhaps it was more because of her manipulative role.
