I saw the ITV adaptation of EM Forster's novel today (taped from Sunday) and was most impressed. Some of you may recall that my first (and only) job as a professional stage actor was in an adaptation of A Room With A View and so I have something of a soft spot for the story. Although the ending wasn't in the novel, I felt that it made perfect sense within the context of the piece (ie. Lucy's journey of self-realisation) although the cut-scenes in the first half I found very irritating..

In terms of characterisations, I think everyone did a creditable job, and I was heartened to see that Mark Williams (Mr Beebe) made pretty much the same character choices that I had in the part, which pleased me no end. All in all I heartily approved and I think it did a much better job all round ... with the possible exception of the camera work ... than the Merchant Ivory version.

Now, must get writing!
Many thanks to clawbeastClawbeast for this enchanting little meme-thing.

I have a spicy personality. If you can take the heat, you'll love me, if not, I'll probably make you cry. I am not for the faint-hearted. What Flavour Are You?


Read the blurb at the top to find out why it's not even slightly as annoying as other quizmemes. I'd say it was quite accurate though.
