One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish
ReplyDeleteAnything that isn't a comic book would be a good start. And not Caitlin Jenner's life story.
ReplyDeleteCamille, Alex, Irene
ReplyDeleteIt's 3 books in The Commandant Camille Verhoeven Trilogy series. Great books
"The Stars My Destination" by Alfred Bester. Classic fifties science fiction. "The Great Gatsby" has been made into a movie several times, every one of them terrible. I'd like to see that made into a good movie.
ReplyDeletearundhati roy's "the god of small things".
ReplyDelete"When Life Hands You Don Lemon, Make Don Lemonade"
ReplyDeleteNone. Book --> movie is never great. Bad for the reader, bad for the movie-goer, annoys the book.
ReplyDeleteI don't like fish, I don't like turkey,
ReplyDeleteI do not like them, McLurkster, Lurky.
How about my book?
ReplyDeleteMylon Sinclair: Space Cowboy! https://www.createspace.com/3599036
And it's available for Kindle.
Catcher in the Rye, although Salinger allegedly wrote a script for Samuel Goldwyn in '52 to possibly star Farley Granger as Holden the Production Code rules put a kibosh on the project
ReplyDeleteYay!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't say *never* Philip K Dick's DADOES made a fine movie.
ReplyDeleteThe Radium Girls, by Kate Moore
ReplyDeleteNONE! every book made into a movie has been total SHIT! Please leave good books alone and force screenwriters to actually use their brain come up w/ something new.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, what an easy fucking job hollywood has...just copy a book into movie and you're a genus. GMAFB!!!
UGH. hate being on my high horse and then have typos! LOL! Totally ruined my soap box moment! Hahahaha! =
ReplyDelete**genius....not genus.... /embarrassed/
The River at Night, Spaceman of Bohemia, Idaho, The Hearts of Men, The Girl Before.
ReplyDelete"This Perfect Day" by Ira Levin. Not his best work, but vividly written. I go back to it every couple of years.
ReplyDeleteThe Thrones of Glass series would be great.
ReplyDeleteMarilyn In Manhattan-Her Year Of Joy by Elizabeth Winder. You MUST read this beautiful book! Casting the young Marilyn would be tough, though.
ReplyDeleteGood omens but I hope it is never made into a movie. My absolute favorite book
ReplyDelete"Orphan Train" by Christina Baker Kline. There was a movie about the historical fact in 1979 (the Orphan Train ran from 1854 to 1929), but I've never had the chance to see it. CB Kline's book was fantastic - it was reported in 2015 that a movie was in the works, but I haven't heard any more about it.
ReplyDelete"The Alienist" is way, WAY overdue to be made into a movie. I have said this before. It is a turn of the century "Silence Of The Lambs" type story. Frickin' red tape held it up for years and it has some sort of cable movie deal now, IIRC. It deserves to be BIG SCREEN.
ReplyDelete*edit* just read it is headed to TNT as a series. If it is done right, it could be PHENOMENAL watching.
ReplyDeleteOr ACOTAR!
ReplyDeleteGood god, none of them. It would inevitably be a disaster.
ReplyDeleteHas "Franny and Zooey" been done yet?
ReplyDeleteClint Eastwood managed to ef-up Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil royally. Don't let him near any books.
ReplyDeleteEvil at Heart but Chealsea Cain. The whole series is a great read
ReplyDeleteNone. HWood can't match my imagination.
ReplyDeleteYo. That's deep.
