    You have done a brilliant job in comparing and contrasting this book and movie. I do know that I have watched the movie at least five times and the book only once. I find both wonderfully uplifting and life affirming. Thanks for all the effort you put into your channel.

      Thank you so much! Yeah when though I may not have been over the top about either one, they are still great, uplifting stories 😊

    I like the Life of Pi comparison, where an important character is given a choice between believing the plausible and the incredible.

    Great vid! I’ve just finished The Book Thief, which would be great for this series.

    Hi. I am a new subscriber. I feel embarrassed to ask if you can do a book to film comparison of Under the skin. I just finished the book and watched the film. I would love to get your perspective. Appreciate the work you do for book and film lovers!! You do a great job!! 😊
