What a difference one director can make! I'm a fan through the books, and although New Moon was my least favorite book, I have to say the director did a great job of expressing Bella's depression after Edward leaves. I think Jacob's part was done perfectly. I also like how the director incorporated more of Edward into the movie... in the book he wasn't seen as often as she sees him in the movie, so the flashbacks really helped the viewer become more connected with how she really felt. Anyway, great movie! I recommend to all!
