Thanks for the recommendations though, I'll check them out :) I definitely agree with what you said about movies rarely matching the quality of the books. LOTR was a fantastic exception - I could watch those movies over and over again and never be bored. They did such a fantastic job!Soniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14180755111437637132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8131717329262322998.post-67959627663287578852011-04-29T01:37:23.532+01:002011-04-29T01:37:23.532+01:00I agree with you about The Shadow of The Wind; whi...I agree with you about The Shadow of The Wind; while complicated, it would probably be an excellent film. Better than the book, anyway, which I didn't end up loving as much as I thought I would.

Like Blood and Chocolate! Seriously, it was like they just took the names from the book and made a totally different movie lol! <br /><br />If I was adapting a book, I would be thinking how to keep as true as I could and keep in all the important plot elements. I thought Interview with the Vampire was brilliant, then again Anne Rice was allowed to write the screenplay. I think they should all be done that way. =)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8131717329262322998.post-35506980389047915112011-04-28T21:15:17.111+01:002011-04-28T21:15:17.111+01:00That's true, movie versions can hardly compete...That's true, movie versions can hardly compete with books.
