Just now, I learned that Veronika Decides to Die was actually made into a film. I'll try to get a copy of the movie to see if it's any good.

hi malounavarro, oh yes, Gone with the Wind! nice!
here's another one i found at Apple Trailers Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Bronte!! though i don;t know if it was shown here

Hi lizzie, just saw this Jane Eyre movie! It was very good, i cant say if it was a faithful adaptation because it has been a long time since I read Jane Eyre! But it did seem to follow the general flow. I liked the way it was made, not the usual romantic kind but bordering on suspense...thriller, maybe even gothic.

I think this is a fun topic so heres some more!

The Lord of the Rings - Tolkien
The Da Vinvi Code - Dan Brown
The Princess Bride - by William Goldman (oh, i love this! I remember watching this as a girl, now its still one of my favorites!)

Here's a nice video recommendation from Abe Abooks


The Time Travellers Wife

I Love The Princess Bride! It was such a blast from the past! I didn't know there was a book...it is still also one of my fave!

Dear John: Just finished reading the book and I must say I liked it better than the movie version. Ending was a bit different too.

wow, I didn't realize there were so many books turned into movies pala. There were also books by Stephen King that were turned into movies like Dolores Claiborne, Pet Sematary and Tommy Knockers, but I think the movies didn't do justice to the novels. ^^,

oh yeah! it also made me remember some of his scary works like "IT", "Christine" and "Dream Catcher"...that scary clown in "IT" made my hairs stand when I watched it as a teen...i vow never to watch that movie again.hehehe.

I love the book yet i despised the movie. The creators should have stick to the topic of complaining of tobacco companies to promote worldwide anti-smoking campaign.

This is the final scene of Blade Runner (Director's Cut) based on Philip K Dick's oevre DO ANDROIDS DREAM OF ELECTRIC SHEEP?. So far, one of my all-time favorite Sci Fi film. Some of PKD's works that were made into film are Minority Report, Total Recall, and A Scanner Darkly.

All good stuff for Sci Fi buffs.
