I love the book and this makes the first contact with its adaptation to not be the most happy. In the structure of story, the presence of Britt Johnson, alive , and the golden coin are important.
In same measure, Tom Hanks was not the expected Captain jefferson kyle Kidd.
But... It is a real beautiful film. For compensations, from the coin battle confrontation to the Mr. Farley and his Erath (journal and town ) and the almost mystical scenes of dust storm , with Amerindians as shadows, the decision of Johanna and the sepia image. Not last, the nice portrait of John Calley and the beautiful art of Elizabeth Marvel to propose the fair portrait orf of Mrs. Gannett is a real good point.
But, sure, the great virtue of film is the inspired work of Helena Zengel.
So, just inspired adaptation at whole.
