In the novel, this event is related by Ruth, the story's narrator, as she had heard it growing up. For the film, they had to move away somewhat from Ruth's subjectivity in emphasizing the scene's specificity and immanence, a salient illustration of the differences between literature and cinema.
My English class was watching this movie, and when we got to this scene the class was laughing like crazy and asked the teacher to replay the part where she drove into the lake. She was so disappointed in us, but did it anyway. We asked her to replay it again. That was a lit English class.
One of, if not my most favorite movies of my life
