Title:
Books that were better movies, and vice versa
The UPS guy was just by to deliver a copy of "Bright Lights, Big City" by Jay McInerney, which I ordered on a whim this week to reread. ($2.68 used from Amazon -- can't beat it with a stick). The cover photo is of Michael J. Fox in the movie version, which was in my opinion dreck. It got me thinking it might be a fun, non-combative thread to list books that were better than the movies made from them, and the other way around.
Two starters --
"Bright Lights, Big City" by Jay McInerney -- book better
"The Godfather" by Mario Puzo -- movie better
