Re: The new Persuasion movie - thoughts?

Do they, the producers, directors, scriptwriters and actors ever read or know the original story or do they rewrite a classic to what will sell or appeal to the unknowing masses? If the trailer is a representation of the finished movie, it is so wrong! Where's the angst that the written Anne feels?
The casting - don't want to even go there! I love the 1995 version over the 2007 - Amanda Root and Ciaran Hinds are a perfect match for Anne and the Captain in my head.
