Taking the extraordinary and making it ordinary!
If this movie is your first introduction to Zora Neale Hurston’s Masterpiece called Their Eyes Were Watching God, then you owe it to yourself to read the book. In fact, it’s the only way you’ll truly be transported to the another time and place. The television movie didn’t even begin to capture the spirit of the book. This book wasn’t about a great romance. It was about a woman’s self discovery. First off, it’s pretty obvious that more than two and a half hours were needed to adequately tell Janie’s story. Because the filmmakers didn’t take the time, viewers were left with a fast-paced, glossed over, cliff note version of Janie’s life. I won’t spoil anything if I say viewers were left with big gaping holes specifically what drove this central character. What about Janie’s background made her make the choices she made? Most glaring, is it possible to span more than 20 years and not get even a wrinkle? Come on! How can a character look exactly the same at the end of a movie as she did at the beginning? especially after enduring such hardships. I’ll admit my stomach turned flips when I found out this picture was being made. Our works of literature are precious and they should be treated as such. If you can’t make it better, then leave it alone. Zora deserved better!
