Literature Box 28 (Meme/Pic Dump)

Author Hated Movie Adaptations: Stephen King, The Shining - King didn’t think Kubrick understood the supernatural aspects, and he hated how it became a domestic tragedy.

Author Hated Movie Adaptations: Roald Dahl, Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory - Dahl wasn’t a fan of Gene Wilder’s take on his character and called his performance “pretentious”.

Author Hated Movie Adaptations: Anthony Burgess – A Clockwork Orange - Burgess said the adaptation made it easy for readers of the book to misunderstand what it was about.

Author Hated Movie Adaptations: Ken Keesey – One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest – Keesey, originally involved in the production of the adaptation, left after two weeks, claiming to have never seen the end product.

Author Hated Movie Adaptations: P.L. Travers – Mary Poppins - She hated the animated sequences, and the happy ending in Saving Mr. Banks was nothing like what happened in real life when Travers left the premier in tears.
