Yes! You said it. Sometimes the book and the movie can be different yet both good. I know of two very good books where the author was on set, made sure the store was done correct. Yet, people said the movie was nothing like the book or other bad things, and never knew the author was on set to over see and that is how the person wanted it for whatever the reason. For me, I just want to enjoy something because I like it. I am discovering Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Gertrude Stein, and Sylvia Plath for the first time. Its wonderful but some see it as you said. A snob or simple and don't read good books. I just like things that bring me joy, peace, and a sense of being. THank you.
The only argument I’m going to give about turning books into movies is that a lot of times the movies take out important parts of the plot/story which then weakens the story and essentially the movie itself.

This is lovely and you’re so right, whatever brings you peace is what’s important!

I can see this too so I agree and that can sometimes make the film less enjoyable. Totally get that!
Yep! Let us enjoy life! Xx
