Olimpia's Story
I felt Olimpia's story was much more poignant and touching than that of Fermina's. Also the actress playing her is much more striking. It has been years since I saw this, but I still remember her interlude in the film, the object of a jealous husband who eventually murders her and used by Florentino. I thought it was so haunting and sad. I haven't read the book (nor was I particularly inspired by the film to do so), but were the main character's meant to be portrayed so callously?
