I am close enough to the industry through my work in media production to know that a million compromises come with any momentum to turn a book into a film. Technical, artistic, philosophical, political compromises, any one of which can turn something great into something bland.
I just finished CC. Read it all yesterday and today. If it were possible to make the movie for the screen that I made in my head as I read the book, it would be a blockbuster.
I am ready to start CC2 tomorrow. Get busy!
I’d love to see it as a film, but I’ll probably have to be satisfied with the film in my mind.
