The story is great, but the movie isn't great

The film isn't particularly well-known because Robert Pattinson paid attention to it. I haven't read the novel and I don't know how wonderful the novel is, but after watching the movie, I really don't think it's particularly wonderful. But movies based on novels are not as exciting as novels, including the Twilight series. I always feel that the title of the movie has nothing to do with the movie, but the elephant does appear in the movie, and it does not reflect the meaning of the elephant's tears. There are not enough parts of the movie to express the characters' emotions, and the climax part is not enough. In fact, their love is vigorous and earth-shattering, but the movie did not produce such an effect, and I am a little disappointed. I should read the novel when I have time.
Despite the film's unsatisfactory shooting, the tears of an elephant is a wonderful story. What impressed me the most was a sentence said by the male protagonist at the end of the movie: She died of death, and she is still moving in my heart. For Robert, I still want to give a like.
