Re: Alfonso Cuaron's A Little Princess

Having seen the movie first, I will say I liked them both. (It's easy to like both the movie and the book when one sees the movie first, I have found.) But I think I do like the novel more. It was a lot more conceptually complex, and I was surprised by how different the two were. The movie feels like it was inspired by the book, but not much more than "inspired by."

I was amazed by the degree to which the novel was a commentary on society's attitudes towards the wealthy, as well as the nature of living in poverty vs. living in wealth. The movies (IIRC) cut so much of those themes out that they really didn't come through at all.
