Sandra in Sydney BS: Novels made into films (77* d) RE: BS: Novels made into films 14 Apr 14

Some time back I borrowed a book from my local library on the different types of movies made from a book. It depends on the words used by the movie maker (or publicists) how true the movie is to the original - 'based on ...', 'inspired by ...', 'from ...' etc. I can't find the book in the catalogue & as I can't search my Past loans (500+ books) I gave up.

Based on the Book is a compilation of over 1,450 books, novels, short stories, and plays that have been made into motion pictures. Utilizing the Internet Movie Database as the authority, all movies in this collection have been released as feature-length films in the United States, in English, since 1980.
