Really good, complex, film, with lots of good characters, plot and acting. I've not read the book, and I understand that even at nearly three hours long the film leaves a lot of complexity out, but it's still very good. Split narrative going backwards and forwards between time-periods, with different actors playing the younger and older versions of some of the characters - though not Nicole Kidman, who manages to play both versions of her character.
I won't try to summarize the plot, but it's well worth watching. I understand it was a box office flop, which says more about audiences than about the film.
Watched on Netfix.
