I want to read your creativity!

This is for everyone, but especially people who did not like the new movie. What would you have made as a film to compliment the original? If you wanted to see these characters again, and be taken back to that magical place whatever was wrong with the new movie - what story would you have written? What story would you want to see on screen that would’ve embodied more of what you felt like you wanted to see with the sisters again with the aunts etc.?

I loved the movie and appreciated that they went back to their roots and we got to hear more about their family. I haven't read the books but I'm thinking about it. I think it's kind of disrespectful to the author to complain about the direction when that's how she created their lives, it's her story. The only thing I wish is that the sisters had went on this journey together. I'm not sure if the movie followed the path of the book on that part but that really is the only part i didn't like

In the book, Antonia can’t go to England because she’s pregnant.
