Henry Fielding's Tom Jones

I liked it the first time I saw it. I may even like it more when I get the chance to watch it again (5 hours) straight through. I mainly got it because I picked up the book and it was SO-- terribly long. I started to read it, but felt I needed a translator like in school for Romeo and Juliet. I decided to watch the movie instead. Maybe now that I have seen it, I can enjoy the book more. The characters in the movie were very likeable. I must say that all the ranting and screaming of Squire Western got old very quickly. Also, I guessed the main character, Tom's identity way before the 5 hours were up, although I will not mention it here what it is. I would recommend it to those who enjoy period movies. Worth watching.

Great movie: I just loved the story itself, as well as the culture of that time… it has all: love, intrigue, friendship, and of course betrayal…

) The movie is quite entertaining and a bit fun. My wife likes it for the way the movie is made. Sort of in a comic/dramatic fashion and pokes fun at mens infidelity and promescuity. I recomend this movie to those who like old settings and who like to laugh.

) Everyone's familiar with the Hollywood version of Fielding's book, and addmittedly it was entertaining. This one is a take, and the acting is excellent.
