So poorly cast. Armand Gamache and Jean Guy Beauvoir are Francophones not an Anglos. Armand Gamache is much warmer, refined, and compassionate. And Jean Guy is so much more intense, clipped, analytical and impatient. Agent LaCoste is not a pretty white blond woman, but is from the islands. Olivier is so much more delicate than portrayed. Ruth Zardo is never smiling, but she seems so pleasant in this movie. Whoever cast Myrna obviously never read the book. Agent Nichol is just about the closest character to the book, eye rolls and all.
I love this series and had hoped for so much more. You would barely know that this was set in the Eastern Townships of Canada other than the beautiful photography. I would be happy to see the next book made into a movie with better casting or the cast more authentically portrayed.
And, by the way...WHERE ARE THE THREE PINES THE VILLAGE IS NAMED FOR?
