It really is a shame Natasha Richardson is no longer with us, as she would have surely enriched any such production with her warm, very heartfelt acting style.

As for the reviews at the time, I can't help but suspect that the critics simply found the content uncomfortable rather than objecting to any shortcomings in the film itself (not being an expert on cinema, I can't really say - although I found the movie just as striking as the book).

Of course, when one reads the above letter or looks at the changes in our very own GOP over the last 30 years or so, it's hard to argue with the fact that Margaret Atwood is a woman of vision.

Again, thank you for the heads up, BRDS. I don't have a Hulu subscription unfortunately; but this might just motivate me to get one.

Big hug!
