Much as I enjoyed reading the novella, I was blown away by the film.” ( Mark Harrison)ĭirected by François Truffaut written by François Truffaut and Jean Gruaultīased on: Jules et Jim by Henri-Pierre Roché (1953) “I’m astonished to not see The Shawshank Redemption on this list. Benjamin in the book is a little bit of a jerk and the movie is funnier, sadder, and a perfect expression of its time.” ( cynesthesia)īased on: Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption by Stephen King (1982) “I found Mike Nichols The Graduate to be more fully realized emotionally than the book. Best music nomination by Elmer Bernstein, Best writing award to Horton Foote.” ( Eric Mustard)ĭirected by Mike Nichols written by Buck Henry and Calder Willinghamīased on: The Graduate by Charles Webb (1963) Great acting by all including best actor award for Gregory Peck. Beautiful Oscar nominated black and white cinematography. “Shocked that no one has mentioned 1963 To Kill a Mockingbird. Seriously, that book is bad and I am in awe whoever managed to make the amazing series out of this dreck.” ( Jens Raab)ĭirected by Robert Mulligan screenplay by Horton Footeīased on: To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee (1960) I found Candace Bushnell’s book on which the series is based on a thrift store. The TV series is pure alchemy, transforming cheese into (TV) gold. Based on: Sex and the City by Candace Bushnell (1996)
