Movies Versus Books

After thinking about “A Worn Path,” and how the movie affected my point of view, it made me realize that watching a movie is never as good as reading the book it is modeled after. It seems like that for a lot of people. If a person that has read a book goes to see the movie, you always hear the person say the movie was not that great, or at least it wasn’t as good as the movie. The movie is never quite the same as what I imagine the book to be. If the movie does match up to what I thought the book should be, then something is cut out because movies can only be so long.
