While I love the movie and the book equally, I thought upon re-reading it that there were a few things I would have liked Joe Wright to add, or emphasize at least

• Briony’s actual fondness for Lola: after the attack from the twins and one other scene.
• Briony’s complete lack of understanding about the “Fountain scene” I honestly believe if more people understood that Briony had no idea what she was seeing they might not see her as a girl who was just ”jealous”   
• Cecilia’s attempts to make contact with her family: in the beginning of the film. Which is why she was at the house in the first place, She wasn’t just there like hanging out
• Cecilia’s relationship with Briony:  I felt she was always portrayed as cold to the young Briony in the film, even though that is not how she was portrayed in the book
• Paul Marshall’s “dream” when he wakes up uncomfortably after hearing Lola and the Twins for the first time
• The Scratch: that Lola gets on her face which is said to have been from the twins, and Robbie’s confusion as Paul Marshall covers it up.
• Briony’s actual innocence: Briony is portrayed as very worldly and knowledgeable, but she actually has very little understanding of relationships or anything sexual, which is why she is disgusted when she reads the letter. Sex is so completely off limits to her that any display/description of intimacy seems to her an evil disgusting thing.

Like I said I loved the book, and the movie they were both wonderful. But I believe that in most cases Briony comes out to be a monster, and while she DID contribute to the horror of the story the movie  sometimes fails to bring across that Briony was a child and didnt fully understand the events that she saw.

Does that make it right? NO absolutly not, But is Briony a monster? NO. The real person to blame as always should be the wrong do-er himself the Rapist
