A wonderful book, and a superb film...and, for those to whom it matters...a
quite faithfull film rendition of the book...even a reading of the film
script itself helps understand the connections/the borrowings/the
transgressions/the additions...all that makes a film script from an original
story...I have not read the very shooting script itself (the one they used
on the set itself...usually different from the film script done by the
writer...different since it incorporates all the changes brought up by
actors themselves after rehearsals, changes brought by locations
discoveries, changes brought up by directorıs input as he advances in his
prep/scouting/rehearsals, changes brought by the editorıs ideas during prep,
changes brought by nasty producers cutting the budget....all that
stuff!!!....)...maybe one of you keen and mighty (and very well connected)
Rara-Avians has a copy of that all essential shooting scriptı stached
away???...I would love to read that!...because that is the script to
read...the only one that really tells you howı the job was done, ifı the
job was done...etc....
