Write Film

writefilm
Is the book always better than the film? Surely this can't always be the case? We look at a range of popular fiction and compete over plot, characters, fun facts and the best bits then score them to find out the true winner...the book or the film?

18 - Write Film - Mortal Engines
Finally, it is back to business as usual as our intrepid duo dive back into the world book to movie adaptions.   This week, they look to a futuristic dystopia where cities have been given wheels and naturally 'eat' smaller towns. A world driven by Municipal Darwinism and the past is conveniently forgotten.   Yes, this week, we look at Philip Reeve's 2001 novel Mortal Engines and Christian Rivers (yes we know its really Peter Jacksons) oh so disappointing 2018 big screen adaptation.   But which is better; The book or the movie?   On a side note, we are currently locked down like so many of you, so the sound is not perfect here as we are learning about remote recording. So please bare with us, you may need to listen up at times. We are working towards sorting this issue out.   Stay home and stay safe everybody.   Lee & Steve x

17.75 - Write Film - We are back! Stay Safe!
Our duo have returned! Sorry we have been gone for a while. One of us (Me, Lee) has been facing some issues which sadly mean this has had to take a back seat for a few months.  I am happy to say, these things seem to be in check now and I am happy to back! Thank you for holding on in there. This is a welcome back episode to catch up with all of you and to see how you are all doing in this very strange time! Enjoy the show and stay safe.  We have missed talking to you and look forward to lots more new episodes!   This week we look at the shows, movies and books we think you should be taking the time to watch and read during the lockdown (we are sure you are locked down upon date of release) The shows and books you never got around to watching or reading.  Rest assured, our normal format is going to return very soon!   Cheers   Lee & Steve
