I don't believe for a minute that it will be even close to being as good as the book but I will give it a go.

I agree, but is anything ever as good as the book? Will give it go tooPosted 4 months ago # -
The book was excellent. I'm prepared to give the TV show a chance, just hope they focus on the interesting tunnel stuff (not a euphemism) and keep away from the boke kissy romance stuff. (Hey - I think I may have just spotted a metaphor)

Not a patch on the book. Pretty dire IMO.
Poor casting, poor scripting and poor sets/choreography (especially in and around the trenches). A real dis-service to Faulk's original.

Of course I've not read the book but I can spot something terrible. Why were both the lead actors twitching as though they were receiving ECT?
A gun shot in the top of the shoulder - is that where you keep your major organs?
..and why did he have his mouth sagged open the whole way through?

And they spent FAR too much time staring into each others eyes dreamily. Michelle Pfieffer and Daniel Day Lewis might have got away with all that gloved hand touching passion in The Age of Innocence, but they are good actors.
More tunnel action please !

In my humble opinion it needed a bit of tweaking..
Certainly needed more flesh.. a better looking leading lady.. and maybe a one on one with her and the french bird.. cut out all the trench stuff too (or at least put some chics in there to liven it up a bit).
Apart from that it was ok..

Bullets ricochet off bones, a bullet to the shoulder can end up in the chest.

Entertaining "light" entertainment for a Sunday night but not up to "expectations"!
Trenches too sanitised but at least Redmayne's blue and swollen lips suggested constant hypothermia throughout.
7/10 for a Sunday

There's been enough of that, they need to get digging underground... Posted 4 months ago # -
That's a good point Binners. The inclusion of Space Ships improves most TV shows, I don't see why that wouldn't have worked here. There could easily be some aliens buried in capsules in the earth below Flanders.

I cant believe I've just had a 'warning' for my previous post on this thread.
Are people on this site really that sensitive? I was commenting on a program that had LOTS of (lets call it 'intimacy' for the timid minds on here) in it.. IT WAS A JOKE FOR GOD SAKE!!!!!!

Blimey, a warning for a bit of humour. Wonder if hora's disappointment with Clemence's baps was punished...

Hels - I think on a Sunday evening you need to go one way or another. Its either space ships and aliens, or at the other end of the spectrum, some nice cute furry animals, maybe with a poorly paw or something...
How come Hora's been edited? My floury baps have been robbed of their context. How frightfully embarrassing!

There is nothing wrong with any part of Clemence.

Unbelievable.

I don't get it..... Posted 4 months ago # -
That answers my question!
Now I'm asking if someone's fussy about helicopters and aliens!
Posted 4 months ago # -
It was a tongue in cheek comment about the amount of 'intimacy' in the program.. I've never read the book (never heard of it) and only caught the last 15 minutes of the program but those 15mins consisted mostly of 'female chests' and 'intimacy'.
Apparently I have to tone down the 'sexist fantasies'.
