[quote=Anonymous]Is anyone watching this with Ewan McGregor? I read the book and was so disappointed by the casting even though I think he's a terrific actor. He is nothing like a Russian count. And there was so much subtlety and nuance in the novel that is completely gone. It's a limited series so they had the space to do so much more, as the Talented Mr Riply has proven. Amor Towles must have done an exhaustive amount of research to get almost every detail just right in the book. As for the Metropol itself, they got the set so completely wrong! It's not a beautiful hotel, but it isn't garish and claustrophobic feeling. Maybe they wanted to give the audience a sense of being confined and wanting to get out? Now that I've vented, I'm going to keep watching because I loved the book and can't help myself. [/quote]
