Some films, like \u003ci\u003eClueless\u003c\/i\u003e--Amy Heckerling's interpretation of Jane Austen's \u003ci\u003eEmma\u003c\/i\u003e--diverge wildly from the original source material, while others, like \u003ci\u003eOne Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest\u003c\/i\u003e, shift the point of view to craft a different experience within the same story. Author Kristen Lopez explores just what makes these works classics of both the page and screen, and why each made for an exceptional adaptation--whether faithful to the book or exemplifying cinematic creative license. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Other featured works include: \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChildren of Men\u003c\/i\u003e -\u003ci\u003e The Color Purple\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003ci\u003eCrazy Rich Asians\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003ci\u003eDr. No\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003ci\u003eDune \u003c\/i\u003e- \u003ci\u003eGentlemen Prefer Blondes\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003ci\u003eKiss Me Deadly\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003ci\u003eThe Last Picture Show\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003ci\u003eLittle Women\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003ci\u003ePassing\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003ci\u003eThe Princess Bride\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003ci\u003eThe Shining\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003ci\u003eThe Thin Man\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003ci\u003eTrue Grit \u003c\/i\u003e- \u003ci\u003eValley of the Dolls \u003c\/i\u003e- \u003ci\u003eThe Virgin Suicides\u003c\/i\u003e - \u003ci\u003eWuthering Heights\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Running Press Adult\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/07\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780762480975\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2022 pg. 106\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Kristen Lopez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42589635870901,"sku":"9780762480975","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_19f65cbf-cc67-4a95-827b-62d319a70af1.jpg?v=1673327769","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/but-have-you-read-the-book-52-literary-gems-that-inspired-our-favorite-films-9780762480975","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
