The Izzy and Murtada Picture Show
TV & Film:Film Reviews
From 'Jurassic Park' to 'Little Women,' what makes a book to film adaptation good?
Kristen Lopez, film editor at The Wrap, joins the podcast to discuss her book, “But Have You Read the Book?: 52 Literary Gems That Inspired Our Favorite Films,” a collaboration with TCM that explores some of the most famous book to film adaptations in American cinema. Izzy interviews her about her favorite and least favorite adaptations, what makes an adaptation successful, and the challenges screenwriters face when turning a novel into a miniseries. Murtada joins for the first half of the episode to chat with Izzy about some of their favorite adaptations and why they think they work so well as films!
