    told that this movie was a modern retelling of The Scarlet Letter‚ and so I waited until after I read the book to watch the movie.

Well‚ while I thought this movie was pretty good‚ and certainly had some very funny scenes - it is definitely not a retelling of The Scarlet Letter.

    The film ran pretty close to the actual book. The dialogues for the most part were exactly the same and the scenes in the movies seemed to fit those of the book very well.
