Having seen the drama series 6 years ago and having cried an actual litre of tears, I thought it was a good time to revisit the story but this time it's the film which aired at the beginning of 2005 few months before the series.

I do not know what is it, if it's my familiarity with the story, but I didn't cry at all. I swear I am not heartless and I am usually really moved by films like these but really it didn't happen this time.

It could be just me but I can see how the drama surpasses the film, both in production and acting. If you are to pick this title for the first time, I suggest the drama first.

All in all, it wasn't a waste of time, it just didn't live to my expectations.
