Adaptation

What a freaking weird slash good movie. Adaptation, featuring Nick Cage. An adaptation of a screen play.

It was a good movie that talked about how a book could never be formed into a movie because it lacked action and intensity. The movie was good though, it kept me watching throughout the movie.

I particularly liked how Nicholas Cage's character was going crazy trying to get it all to work and eventually ended up following his brother's advice and seeing a screenplay guru. When he finally starts writing everything he ended up changing everything from the original to make it into something viewable. Which was against everything he planned on doing at the beginning. He eventually went against everything he planned on doing. Instead of keeping the film of the book as it was written, he had to add action and everything to make it into a film people would go watch.

The poor writer had her book completely demolished. The sex and everything that started to creep into the movie also symbolizes how the book was changed. The action made the movie good though!!! at least in my book! A movie about flowers would suck. no doubt in my mind it would suck. But a movie about sex and affairs and deaths is always entertaining.

There should be more movies like this... o wait.
