Love's Long Journey (2005)
Movie versus the book
I have read all of the Love comes softly books, and I have seen all the movies put out so far. While the movies by them selves can be viewed as good, I am getting more and more annoyed at the gap between book and movie. Not even all of the names are correct!
Many small things, but the main story line in the movie is not even found in the book at all. I can see why they may have done that to make it more interesting...but I think they should have written their own movie for that. I wanted to see the book brought to life, not just an interesting story line. This has the same name as the book, and SOME of the same characters. But after reading the book I was very disappointed when viewing the movie. I have no idea how they think they can go on to the next book when they don't even have what they need from this one to get there! So if you are going out for a good movie, go ahead you will probably enjoy it. If you are going out because you love the books, don't. Unless you are prepared to see one of your favorite story lines mutilated.
