Which movie was actually better than the book? Why do you think so?

Post by Laura Lee »

Most readers agree: "The book is always better than the movie made from the book!" But are there any exceptions to the rule? In your experience, what movies have been better than (or at least as good as) the book? What was it that made the movie better?
