Movie Wondering...

In Angela's Ashes, the story itself is depressing and each page presents a whole new insight to the gloominess of the McCourt family's lives. I wonder if the movie adaptation will uphold this mood and this atmosphere which was so readily displayed in the story. I also wonder whether it will capture the essence of their struggles or whether it will just present the series of events and nothing more, hoping that in itself will bring the story to life.
In Angela's Ashes, the supporting details and intricate moments of these boys' lives prove their strive for survival. It proves the lowest form of poverty and strife exist even in what we consider to be developed countries. Their story takes place in Ireland and America- neither of which brings the family any luck financially. Hopefully, the film adaptation I will watch later on will draw details from the book I read, like for example:
When Malachy and his family came back to Ireland, he asked: "What are cows?" And his father was wondering how to answer such a question that he simply answered: "Cows are cows, son."
This snippet of dialouge showed the lack of experience and knowledge of these boys because of their poor lifestyle. Another time, the boys didn't know what a banana was so they had started eating it without peeling it. These what may appear to be small details, actually contribute to the whole picture, the whole story. I hope such subtle yet important touches will not be left out of the movie.
