didn't live up to all the hype - was definitely not earthy or steamy enough - nothing like the book :-( |

Over rated book, it was "bigged up" by critics in order to boost it's chance of beating the Obscene publications act, in the interest of freeing up publication laws. |

I thought like you, AnnC, it did not live up to its hype. In fact, I thought one of the main characters acted so badly he needs to give up and get a new day job. The clue is 'He' - and it was not JN. Never mind, he may be more suited to comedy than drama. |

I actually enjoyed it! For once it was good to be able to enjoy the story instead of concentating on the mucky bits :-D ;-) |

It was televised in 1993 with Sean Bean - I did watch some of that but am not keen on DH Lawrence :-( |

I remember the version with Sean Bean and Joely Richardson. It was a bit more risque than this new version, and they made a very handsome couple :-D :-D |

I remember the trial and all the hype . How it was full of four-letter words etc etc. At the time I didn't know what most of them meant!! |
