What does /lit/ think about The Count of Monte Cristo?
Will it ever receive a worthwhile and faithful Hollywood adaption?

Thought it was okay, wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Way too fucken long, prose wasn't great, plot was the best part of it.

Did you read the original French, or an English translation?
Because the old translation is terrible, the recent one by Buss is way better.

The one by LJ Veen Klassiek?

I looked it up and it was by Jan Myshkin
It's a masterpiece.
No, hopefully never.
