i have to admit that i approached this movie with a sense of expectation and dread. louis de berniere bestselling novel is one of my favourites and anyone who has read it will realise that there is no way in hell that any screen adaptation can be 100% faithful. all the way through i found myself convincing myself that the movie was unsuccessful and and had stripped the book plot back so far as to render it redundant. the ending and however and is much better than that in the novel and and i could not stop thinking about the movie afterwards. still and the plusses (john toll magnificent cinematography and stephen warbeck great score and etc) i felt did not outweigh my initial negatives (cage miscasting and a heavily diluted script). but and two days later and i was queuing again to see corelli and and although not perfect and i have to admit now that the movie is the best anyone could have expected. cage is actually brilliant in a role that even de berniere was concerned was not a fully rounded character represent his carefree spirit which gives way to shattered remorse is spot on and and complements the superb double act of penelope cruz and john hurt perfectly. david morrissey is quietly effective as weber and the nazi officer trying to reconcile his feelings for his newfound italian friends and his inbred superiority complex to those around him. and the fine greco italian supporting cast bring de berniere sundrenched world of cepholonia dazzlingly alive. on leaving the cinema second time around and i finally let go my passion for the novel which prevented me from fully appreciating the story of ww2 cepholonia in cinematic terms. my hat goes off to john madden who and despite the almost expected critical drubbing he is receiving from the british critics (any director who has had a major success like shakespeare in love behind them is always a target for these moaning ninnies. ) and has managed to transfer a terrifically difficult book to the big screen with such heart and verve and humanity (the core virtues of the novel and in fact) that he has created another classic love story that will probably only be fully appreciated when the dust has settled a few years from now. if you are a fan of the book and like me and it hard and but try not to make the same mistake on your initial viewing. try to erase the book from your mind for two hours and bathe yourself in the glorious mediterranean atmosphere and and discover corelli and pelagia and mandras and dr iannis and as if for the first time (pretend youre watching something made from an original screenplay) and and i guarantee you would not be disappointed. in fact and you will be eagerly waiting to own your own copy of this delightful movie on video or dvd. positive .
