After giving up on "The Glass Bead Game" decades ago I have eschewed heavy lit.The Captive's fault may lie in casting. They were all light weight, mono-dimensional--nearly vapid. I felt no pain nor learned anymore about human nature.
If this is the best adaptation of Proust I won't be seeing anymore. Color me boor.
