Rose Hill Reviews

---

what happened to you people who thought this was bad
I agree with Newsiesgirl this was great, but I have not read the book.

HOW COULD JULIE LET THEM DO THIS TO HER WONDERFUL BOOK!!!!!
When I saw the movie Rose Hill was an adaptation of one of my favorite author's book, I was very excited to watch it. I should have skipped it. The only thing they got right was the make up of the family. Two of the main characters from the book are killed off in the movie but Julie actually wrote separate stories for them. It has been a while since I read the book but who the heck is Fergus. I don't remember him from the book but the movie implies that he ends up with Mary Rose. Look, I understand that when a book is adapted into a movie there will be some artistic license taken, such as the deletion of minor characters or the addition of others; but when you totally change the main characters and what happens to them, you are not taking artistic license, you are telling a story that is totally different from the original. Give me a break. The people who made Rose Hill need to talk to the people who adapted the John Grisham books into movies. I watched some of those movies before reading the books and vice versa and although artistic license was taken, the movies pretty much stayed true to the books. I don't know how Julie Garwood could have put her name on this movie because it was no where near the wonderful story she wrote. Didn't she read the screenplay before she agreed to this movie. I hope, if she agrees to have another one of her books adapted into a movie, she ensures that the movie comes somewhere close to resembling the book in someway or form, such has having the main characters who are suppose be alive stay alive and having them marry characters that were actually in the books.
