This movie took me at least three days to get through because of its poor quality. The actors didn't seem to quite understand the true meaning of their characters, and many moments almost felt comedic in a strange way. At least my favorite character, Madame Defarge, was taken seriously. I will always remember this film, not as an adaptation, but as a parody.
