Pride and Prejudice, Princess Bride, Lord of the Rings, and West Side Story… what do these have in common? They all have been made into movies. Many people think that the movie can never be as good as the book. What do you think? Read the book, watch the movie, and then weigh in (on these books/movies and more):
–what version (book or film) do you like better?
