Review by ejamc

I have loved the book that this movie is based since I first read it as a child, so I was ecstatic to see that it was at last made into a feature film! It's just as funny as the novel, and Catherine is the same scheming teenager that she is in the novel, going to any lengths to avoid being forced into an arranged marriage! Lena Durham is a genius, and I am glad to learn that she holds this book in the same high regard as I do! Read the book, then watch the movie to see the antics of Catherine, a modern girl that just happens to live in the late 13th century, it's worth your time and attention!
