adapted from the novel by Thomas Hardy
I am a sucker for BBC's adaptations of 19th century novels, and thanks to Netflix I have a ready supply to "Watch Instantly" whenever I want.... usually when I'm folding laundry. Though I wouldn't call it a masterpiece, this one was not disappointing. It's a sweet and simple story, the characters are interesting, though not well-developed, and the love story is nice. Thankfully it wasn't a mini-series, so I didn't have to get sucked in to 8+ hours of...... what am I talking about? I love the long ones! Who doesn't love a good romance?
I also love these because I know they will be clean. Modern romances are.... well, not so clean.
