I thought that Melissa Rosenburg did a good job writing the movie script. Reading the book, I had kept in mind all of the many quotes that all the readers love. ("Time passes..." "I think she's having hysterics..." "Before you my life was like a moonless night..."etc.) None of them were included which uspet me. Also, though it followed the book pretty well, there were some parts that would have confused me. Example: Bella going to Italy. Many of my friends had a hard time understanding why exactly she did that. Plus, they didn't include the whole ride back from Volterra. First she was in Italy and BAM she's back in her bedroom. It made you think that the whole thing was a dream. But other than that, the move was fantastic.
