Books and Movies



I always thought that books and movies do not have any relation. The reason is that I always loved watching a movie but hated to read a book. It was unfortunate but very true. This is the reason that I have seen and remember almost every popular movie but I am still a rookie in books and authors.

I think this is true for most of the kids now also. However the fact is that most of the films are the versions of some or the other novel or at least they are inspired by some books. This makes us really feel that the best entertainment today, movies, is also created from books. It is strange but true.
So after knowing this fact I thought it is better that I start reading from now. Books are the best key to any success anywhere.

It all actually starts with a small word or any incident. How?
Let me explain you. A person starts thinking about a particular thing means that he has experienced something related to that recently. That thinking makes him remember that incident as he has given importance and a thought to that.
For authors, this same process continues a bit longer as they want to put down those experiences on paper. When they do this, they come out with a story to tell other people.
If that story clicks and people starts getting inspired or impressed by that story, it gets more and more popularity.

If the story is popular already among the people, then there comes a part which is film making and our directors and producers make most use of the fact that the story is popular already. So when the film comes out in theatres, people will obviously watch it at least once as they know that the story is good.

It is not negative to get the script from a popular novel or book. Also not all the movies are always based on some book. But in any case it is more beneficial for both film makers and the audience.

Here are some movies which are based on books or novels:

Harry Potter series, Water for Elephants, The three musketeers, Alice in wonderland, Chronicles of narnia, Kick ass, Repo Men, Shutter Island, Twilight Saga, Angels and Demons and many more.
Almost 10 to 20 movies every year are based on some books or novels. The moral of the story is the main inspiration to each and every thing is books.
