If you hadn't read the book, the movie's dialog would simply not make sense. It's like someone ripped a bunch of key quotes out of the book and had the actors say them without any of the non-dialog context you need to understand why they're saying it. It was a terrible adaptation.

The only enjoyment I got from that movie was the thrill of seeing a book I'd read on the big screen. The movie couldn't stand its own.
