I listened to this on CD--- a total of 13 CDs, and as far as I can tell, the movie covered the last two CDs. And made up the beginning.

Probably because I knew the ending.

The second part was about Emma, and was only about 1/5 of the book.  The part about Aurora was too long.  It was mildly interesting, but nothing much happened.
