Re: name a movie that was better than the book

Schindler's List.

I'll make a case for The English Patient but no so much better as running at the content at another angle.

Oscar and Lucinda - Peter Carey won an award for the novel which i wrote on in my first year English course. I prefer the book's ending Carey prefers the movie version ending. (change my mind the book's better).

I liked the movie version of Firestarter over the book - neither is saying very much but still Drew is addrable here and the booked dragged.

Gee you know I can't think of very many films that really blow the books away. Schindler's List was a dense book with more information and ordered in a different sequence but less powerful and a bit detached.
