It was amazing. Sets, costumes, music, story, were all amazing. It was so worth it. Even Shawn enjoyed it.

There were parts of the story that annoyed me, especially from a feminist standpoint (and especially when people tout it as having a "girl power" theme). Also, there was a bit of cognitive dissonance having read the book - that is so very, very different, in every important way. But I was still in awe, enchanted, and amazed. I got teary twice. And I was buzzing after.

And I really, really want to see it again.
