I know what you mean. I haven't read the book, which I'm sure offers more information about the situations and the characters than the movie does, and of course the movie adaptation rarely is exactly as the book...

As I said in the post, I haven't seen it too many times, probably just a couple and long time ago, and I don't think is the best movie ever but it has some very sad and touching moments... and for me Daniel Day-Lewis is an incredible actor but I don't always like the projects he works in... This one is kind of nice. And, I do like the music very much ;)
