The tv remake of Black Narcissus has already been shown in the States. 

Look away now if you don't like unpleasant reviews. 

Roger Ebert: “Black Narcissus” struggles for three hours to justify its existence. Naturally, by virtue of length, some characters and themes get more screen time than in the 101-minute original. But none of the expansion registers as valuable.    

New Yorker: This is a landmark of Hollywood-on-Thames trompe-l'oeil.

New York Times: As easy as this “Black Narcissus” is to watch, however, you may find yourself wondering why, exactly, you’re watching a show about a bunch of nuns in the mountains in 1914. Telling the tale this coherently — Coe and Christensen have gone to a lot of trouble in terms of logical progression and cleverly incorporating the book’s themes — has the effect of exposing the plot contrivances that the emotional texture and psychological acuity of Godden’s book glossed over.
