Las bucaneras

... Wharton died before finishing-writing The Buccaneers, Wadey finishing her story for this screenplay, many viewers and Wharton fans thought her version too "Hollywood," too unrealistic, as ALL of Wharton's previous novels, have markedly realistic & distinctly solemn endings for all their characters & plot lines

... finding the ending suitable or not, it's a decent adaptation for TV, and the cast does good work bringing it to the screen... set in a time one-hundred-fifty-years ago, it's a timeless work that would hold up whenever viewed

... if viewers and fans didn't like the '95 version, can't imagine they'll be viewing the 2023 one any better at all, as they are night-n-day-different... better-or-worse, ur-call.
