And Read the Book, Too

By: Uli Cain, Cinefid​el¹³

Here are some films based on books that I feel are either better — usually the case — or as good as the film.

The first two on the list are my two favorite novels, and the films, while good, barely compare.

Now, a film not on this list is The Ice Storm, which I feel is vastly superior to Rick Moody’s novel.

Then there is something like Strip Tease, which is a brilliantly funny book by Carl Hiaasen, that was turned into a horrendous movie.
