    I saw “A Wrinkle in Time” over the weekend, and I think it’s safe for lovers of the book to watch. (It’s one of my favorite books of all time.) They dumb down the science a bit (okay, a lot) and IT isn’t portrayed as a giant brain, but I think they did a good job retaining the bones of the story and fleshing it out with visuals a modern audience can accept. It is not the book. But it is good. (And the child actors — all three of them, since Sandy and Dennys are sadly not in the film — do a very good job of portraying their characters.)

      Oh, that’s good to know! Robin saw it over the weekend, too, and liked it very much. They concur that there are changes from the book (and they left out Aunt Beast! 🙁 ), but still thought I would enjoy it. A Wrinkle in Time and A Wind in the Door were two of my favorite books growing up.
