If I didn't know the true story, I probably would have liked it better. Why did they have to change Rachel's profession which in real life is an English Professor and a writer? I don't want to be a spoiler so I will present this as delicately as I can. I don't see why they had to kill off a character who wasn't dead in the book?
I confess that I taped this movie, editing out the commercials as I went along, making the film only 96 minutes long. I have been dying to see it. It is a nice little film that follows the book except for a few things that I mentioned earlier.
As far as judging Rosie's acting goes, one would have to be able to compare the real-life Beth to Rosie's portrayal of her to give a fair assessment.
