I always have this problem when watching a movie based on a book - for me the original has to be as untouched as possible.
This is why I love "Dawns are quiet here" (my pathetic translation of "A zori zdes' tikhiye") and why I hate all american versions of "Three Musqueteers".
For me the problem with AT is how freely he treats the book his film is based on. If I did not care for that particular book I would probably think different of AT.
But then again - even his non-literature-based movies are too far from my understanding and my style in movies.
