This is sooo different from what was one of my favorite movies. I‘m rethinking my love of that story now that it was Hollywoodized to a fare-the-well. In order to sell movie tickets I‘m sure, they cheapened Blixen‘s book & made it a love story. The author doesn‘t go there. There is another movie, a very different one, in these pages that focuses on the indigenous people who are mentioned on every page. We get no credit for our intellect. ☹️
