From Book to Film.
I was just having a look at some of the older threads and came across the one regarding the Bourne Supremacy. The people who had read the book first, seemed to be disappointed with the film; that started me thinking about recent books I have read and the quality of the resulting film.
I have recently seen two films from books that I really enjoyed. The two films and books being, John Grishams The runaway jury and J K Rowlings Prisoner of Azkaban aka Harry Potter.
I thought that the Harry Potter film was excellent, with the books original work followed as closely as could reasonably be expected.
The Runaway Jury however, was a huge disappointment to me with the some of the central themes and characters deviating greatly from the original work.
I am interested to know what books to films you can tell me about, would you recommend both formats or do you have a preference; over to you.
