Obviously "A Room With a View" is a symbol for "a LIFE with a view" - which is what Lucy Honeychurch wouldn't have had with Cecil Vyse. The plot ambles along at a deadly slow pace. But such was the pace of life for many in this Edwardian era. I think I might have found the book even tougher going were I not familiar with the film and just embarking on watching it again - I grow fonder of the film with each successive viewing. Such a splendid adaptation - it probably wasn't easy.
