This is hosted by Royal Reviews for the year 2009.
The rules are simple:
In 2009 read a minimum of 6 books that have been made into movies and then watch the movie.
-
Write a review on the Book vs the Movie
-
Be honest about whether or not you think the film-maker was successful in translating the book to film. Please keep in mind that it is impossible to convey everything.
-
You must both read the book and watch the movie within 2009. All genres are acceptable and it doesn’t matter when the movie was made.
I have seen the movies of these titles…I haven't tackled the books. I really like The English Patient.
I find that if I have read the book within 3 months of watching the movie, the movie will always suck!
So maybe, in your review, watch the movie first and then read the book to see if there is a different in your opinion of them.
