I’m reading the book now. I was thinking the same about it being too much to cram into a movie. Clearly Mr Dumas was paid by the word!

As far as I know (and I don't know much), it used to be like that back then? No wonder so many classics keep going on and on. Although personally, I do enjoy those details in The Count of Monte Cristo (but Charles Dickens, sometimes not 😅)

I really need to read this book! I like to read before movie adaptations
