Surprised at how much the film actually improved its story.
Rare when a film improves upon a book, but it happens. Case in point: THE GODFATHER.
Sure, it was a runaway bestseller, especially in paperback. But to be honest, it was pulp fiction masquerading as literature. My point is, if the films didn't become such a HUGE part of 20th century pop culture, I doubt the novel would still be in print.
