There are the exact the same words but the meaning is different. There are not close ups from eyes or hands. There is no emotion there are just words.
So powerful was the original, so shallow is the remake. Even the little joke in the beginning, when Julianne Moore shows the view to Isabel. "At a clear day you can see New Jersey but who wants to see that" doesn't make sense here!
There is no undercurrent in this movie, no subtleties that makes the original so emotional! Don't make a remake of everything. Americans can't make remakes of European movies because they miss the same background in everything
