The main reason for me is that it recreates so impressively the period it represents. I've always found that many non movie-lovers remember this film, for good or bad. Most importantly to me, the cinematography and set are sublime, almost unsurpassed in modern film to my mind, and still to this day amazing. The three screenwriters do an excellent job, of filming the almost impossible to within 2 hours or so. The book encompasses many other issues and plotlines, which could not be fitted into the film. The film quite rightly focusses on the human story within the book of a group of murders committed at an Italian abbey in the 14th Century, and the ongoing search for the purpetrator, by a Franciscan monk and his apprentice.
