Q.
Serious question : movies based on fictions r never as good as the books they are based upon. I wonder whether it is possible for our film makers to do total justice to the novel in movie adaptation without disturbing d real essence. But without any doubt, it is a tough job. Toughest when you want to satisfy those who loved reading the original story. What do you feel on this?
Two questions based on the same theme:
a) Which is the best screen adaptation you have seen till now? Why??
b) Which is the worst screen adaptation you have seen till now ?

I hope this will give you clear picture of pictures based on books as far as question of my elation is concerned.

I would like to differ with you- have you tried to read the novels written by James Hadley Chase and Ian's Flaming? 99.99% of all the novels written by James Hadley Chase is thrilling and eminently believable and Ian's flaming novels are not so thrilling - but when they tried to take the film based on the novels of Chase-they ended up in heqavy loss, but novels based on Ian's flaming even now had a huge fan following and the fils have earned several billions-
