I agree with Janet Maslin, writer of "Movie Review - Beloved - FILM REVIEW; No Peace From A Brutal Legacy", that the everyone that helped put this movie together was able to portray the feeling that times were hard and that people had to make sacrifices, so they could protect their loved ones. That people should read the book before watching the movie because even though depending how old you are it might be confusing. It is worth the effort to read the book and spending time reading passages over more than three times, because you are able to learn more about the characters that way. If you still are confused about the book by the end, the movie is a like a little review of what you have just read. A novel like this, thats very descriptive and makes the reader imagen in the head what is happening. It is better to watch the movie after so you can see how much description in a novel can really affect how much emotion and personality the actors have to have. After watching the movie you really notice the them of the novel which is when the supernatural and natural worlds meet, its can make people happy for a certain period of time but it does not specifically lead to happiness in life. I agree with Maslin, that because the movie begins calm and slow, it helps build the plot of the story . It leads to the reveal of the supernatural world as more dramatic and brings a lot of creativity to the film.(Maslin).
