i think that the actors, writers, producers, and director did a lot to convey a story that is not as easy to translate to film. a lot of the "story" is told from bella's perspective, and her internal thoughts and reflections. it's not as easy to pull that off. i wish that there had been more interaction with the rest of the cullens, as i don't think that those relationships were as fleshed out as they could have been. i think that the actors and actresses picked for their roles did a fantastic job, and i can't wait for "new moon"
