The author basically says he was not in the loop as far as the screenplay, he never read the script. The principles went through 5 or 6 writers before they found one to deliver the desired slant. He didn't even own the movie rights. The prima donnas even asked him not to come to LA for the original screening because they feared he would not agree with the tone since it diverged so much from the book. They were afraid he would say so to the press if asked.

I think he just sees the process for the b.s. that it is and says so in SO MANY WORDS....
