Replyi haven’t read too many books including the shining but thought he was gonna say that. it’s the first movie that comes to mind for me as far as novel-movie. i got the lead actor right.
ReplyI liked your Snow Falling on Cedars and Great Expectations, Ethan.
ReplyThe only beef I had with the film was the change in Murphy’s attack on Ratched.
ReplyBTW, a good side read is “The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test” by Tom Wolfe. Chronicles the adventures of the Merry Pranksters. Kesey wrote a good deal of the book while tripping on acid.:)
Now I just want to know what came second and third. 🈚
ReplyWhatever, Eth.
ReplyOnly the shortest of novel can be faithful be adapted to a single film of two and half hours. Once you go longer more and more things have to be cut out. That’s something that should be taken into account for any adaptation, if it’s longer than 40k words best to make it a series format moving forward. IMO a premium series is just a better format in general for story telling.
ReplyWhat role is Ethan doing now? His personality seems a little different. I wonder if that is effecting him.
ReplyWow, Ethan Hawke agrees with me. Sometimes a Great Notion, Kesey’s other great novel, is another amazing book.
ReplyEthan Hawke looks like he once sold a mogwai to somebody in a basement shop.
ReplyLord of the Flies. 1963 film version of 1954 novel by William Golding.
ReplySome other good adaptations
Sideways
ReplyEverything is Illuminated
Requiem for a Dream
American Splendor
O Brother Where Art Thou?
I agree with Hawke on Cuckoo’s Nest. Into The Wild was a great adaption of a superb book as well.
ReplyEthan Hawke, a fine line between SANE and INSANE. 😏

Replyhe looks like an axe murderer
ReplySay Ethan, it’s been a while. Looking umm umm grownup? Umm like my neighbor kinda older ish?
ReplyGuess I need to look in the mirror myself
I completely agree with what he said. I’ll take it one step further and I think the movie is better than the book.
ReplyI want this to be a regular thing Stephen!!
ReplyI’d like to see the movie from the chief’s perspective.
