If anyone ever wants to make movies of my novels, I would want them to make my novel into film, not their idea of my novel. I would want them to follow the story in the book rigorously, not remove or add material. Filmmakers have a horrible tendency to do their version of a given story, usually ruining it to various degrees, and often completely. They demonstrate that they haven’t understood it at all, a fact that should embarrass them to no end.
