I've seen lots of movies that I later then read the book it was based on. In almost every case, I ended up liking the book more. Of course, I can't think of any at the moment. I do remember the few times were I thought the movie was better. Silence of the Lambs (shockingly bad book for such a great movie), Jurassic Park (book was kind of a downer), and The Ninth Configuration (My all time favorite movie, but the book was kind of experimental and half baked, but still a good read).

Need to be away from life to focus on the screen..never read a book after seeing the movie- too many books, too little time…when will we get a guest column by your talented wife entitled “ Writing about Reading while Living with the Author of Writing about Reading”?
