for me while i do love at times seeing a film based off a book. it really depends on the casting. the director and the #1 thing the writer, if the director or writer or both if the director also wrote it is really in love with the story and cares enough to want it to be good than we get a Shawshank Redemption or a Green Mile, Stand By Me. 3 films that really follow the stories they are based of off. than you have
the Harry Potter films where the first 2 films are pretty faithful to the books. but it also helped that those books are really short compared to the later books.
i do love Mini-series as well.. the book i'm reading now it's going to i think the big screen to take a guess 5 year from now. but on how long it is 702 pages with authors note included. it has to be 2 things like around 180 minutes long or 150 about or around there
or a really long Mini-series like The Stand was. though to be fair that's a longer book too.
