Pages to Scenes

Just as the title suggests, this post is about 5 movies which are book adaptations.

Book-to-movie adaptations aren't the best thing there is in the whole of a book junkie's life. Most of the time, the sentence "the book was better" is the best way to describe one's feelings about a movie adaptation of a certain book. I've certainly had times I felt that way but here are 5 books to movies that I like talking about in 4 different categories.

Book = Movie (I loved the book, and I loved the movie just the same.)

Pride and Prejudice(2005)

A lot of people have mentioned about the 1996 version being better than this. I have yet to watch that adaptation but this version has captured my heart just as the book. Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfayden melted me the moment they were portraying the timeless characters. Not only were the actors great and astounding in their portrayals, but the setting was very much captured properly. The scenes felt very Regency era, and I think to feel like being able to go back to that time is really a beautiful feeling to have.
