House of the Spirits | Adaptations
Danish director Bille August made a film version of The House of the Spirits in 1994, starring Jeremy Irons as Esteban, Meryl Streep as Clara, Glenn Close as Ferula, Antonio Banderas as Pedro Tercero, and Winona Ryder as Blanca. The film was not particularly successful, with many critics claiming the Anglo actors were hopelessly miscast. One critic even suggested that the only worth of the adaptation was as a "potential camp cult film."
