Hey friends,
I need your help, consider it a small favor.

I need to present a novel vs. movie comparison for my Film Adaptation Class in College. Can you help me choose a nice piece of literature, which I can compare and sketch out differences/similarities to present?

Thank You! :D

Rosanna Threakall Peter Pan? Pride and Prejudice? Alice in Wonderland? :)

Anmol Sachdeva @rosie Someone already did take P&P, and Peter Pan. And I was thinking of taking a more mature novel.

OR I can compare two movie adaptations of the same book as well !!

Rosanna Threakall What about something like Filth or Trainspotting by Irvine Welsh?

Also Coraline by Neil Gaiman!

Anmol Sachdeva Okay. Filth surely seems to be an interesting choice. What are your views about One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest??

Never read it but I've seen the film of Filfth so if you want something gritty and mature than that's your best bet!

It's shame you cant do Shakespeare plays, SO many films and so many that aren't at first glance, based on his plays.

Anmol Sachdeva I can do a Shakespeare play and its film adapt, but I only have a week to read, see the movie and form an opinion! So, going with something a little LESS intimidating, but good will be a better idea!

Shakespeare plays are a lot shorter than novels!
