    The book is fabulous - way better than the film, and I'm a huge fan of the film. The same is true of "The Hunt for Red October" and "The Englishman who Went up a Hill but Came down a Mountain".

    There are other cases where the film is better than the book, but specifically those three favourite films of mine are genuinely better in the book version.
