Behind the scenes of the silver screen, there is often a delicate dance that unfolds between artists and authors, where books are read and studied to understand one simple thing: can they be made into movies?
While there isn’t a lot that’s different between making a normal movie and making one that’s adapted from a book, the creative process is what sets the two apart. Adapted movies are more likely to be viciously analyzed to make sure that the original story is respected, and so crafting a book’s visual cinema requires a lot more thought!
