Ray Bradbury had a believably difficult time adapting MOBY DICK to a script, he talks about it. And although the TV miniseries adaptation of The Shining was technically closer to the book, fans still consider the film with Jack Nicholson to be spiritually superior. Of course, in “Harry Potter 6,” they invented an incident that wasn’t even in the book and cut out much of the heart of the book–the search for Voldemort’s past. I’d love to have been in on those meetings. Thanks for the comment!
