You can learn a lot from TV shows and films. I love those media. There's always much more in the book than the film. Impossible on screen to capture everything. I'm thinking especially of one of my favorites, To Kill A Mockingbird. So much more in the book, but I think it's one of the most successful and most wonderful adaptations I've ever seen.<br /><br />Great theme you're doing, Jemi. Pretty close to mine, as you know, but I'm just focusing on "old" movies I love.
