| Re: Golden Compass - spoilers (book and movie) discussion Until I read what you posted I had thought it was a fairly faithful adaptation, but I can't fault what you said, and I guess it is too long ago since I read the books. I had forgotten that Lyra ran away during the cocktail party.
Your comments from Movie Fan are still true in regard to time constraints though, and also I think there was some heavy pressure to water down this film for it to be successful. |
