No one could be entirely satisfied if the standard of measurement is the one set by the master herself. My own level of dissatisfaction is low enough that I'm very glad to have bought, not rented, the movie.
On my wish list to improve Rozema's movie:
1. a closer portrayal of Fanny's humility
2. greater character development of the horrible Mrs Norris, one of literature's greatest fictional creations

. . . whose scenery will convince you to visit New Zealand. See instead Jane Campion's The Piano (see my IMDb review.)
You'll pack your bags right away.
I will say this about Peter Jackson--he's managed to make his movies here but the ocean doesn't feature at all--gives you an insight into the astonishing variety of the physical geography of New Zealand.

. . . then pair Music of the Heart with From Mao to Mozart, both of which feature everyone's favourite, Isaac Stern. In a sense, both movies are from the heart.
Make sure you buy or rent the DVD edition of From Mao to Mozart, which includes Stern's reprise visit to China in 2000.
