While I, along with millions of others, feel a strong affinity for the Brideshead Revisited that first introduced many of us to Evelyn Waugh's classic work (not to mention to Jeremy Irons) 27 (yikes) years ago, I was heartened to read in today's New York Times that the new adaptation opening next weekend more closely follows the book. I read the book years after watching the original miniseries and remember being surprised by the differences. This new one looks like it's going to be quite good, plus it stars Emma Thompson, which always means an enjoyable night at the movies. Here's the trailer, let me know what you think!
