But at the same time, I think Ginny is more of a *presence* in the 
book than she is on film.  She's not a major player in the scenes but 
she's there, lurking around the edges of the story's conciousness, 
hinting at the fact that *something* is bothering her.  And one of my 
nitpicks with the film is that we don't get much sense of that, of 
her increasing somberness as she realizes what's happening to her.  
Ah well...
