Awkward interpretation

Under discussion:
It was basically what you would expect from TBN when they throw a bunch of money at a movie. It was well made and the CGI wasnt entirely cheesy, but it was still piles of kitsch and over-acting. One Night... is the story of Esther, except shes apparently oblivious to the fact that women of her day didnt speak in public, and certainly didnt prance about the marketplace cheerfully. Also, nobody told her that she wasnt supposed to hold western democratic philosophies and Anglo-Protestant individualism. Also, the writer of the story must not have read the original story because they threw in a sub-plot that involved a young male friend who has a crush on her that ends up a eunuch in her court. There is a level of tension between Esther and the King that hints at what the story could have been, but they dwelt much too long on side events that never happened for the story to blossom the way it should have.
