The Man Who Fell to Earth is an example of a movie that while different from the book, is a very good compliment to the book. By which I mean they go together well.
The Ninth Gate is probably better than the book which inspired it - the Club Dumas. I don't know because I got a bit bored with the book and stopped reading with about 1/5 of the book remaining. To be fair(er) the movie only deals with part of the book's plot.
