About this episode
Annie is joined by guest Rebekah Arwood, manager of The Bookshelf in Thomasville. Rebekah and Annie chat about that ever-controversial topic: Is the book better than the movie? The discussion runs the gamut, from the newly-released Gone Girl to The Hunger Games , Great Gatby to Little Women (which Rebekah and Annie both identify as a wintertime classic). - Gillian Flynn wrote her own screenplay for her bestselling novel Gone Girl ; here are more novelists that could follow in her steps. - We think Jane Austen would love both The Lizzie Bennet Diaries and Emma Approved , two web adaptations by Pemberly Digital , a company devoted to using new media to adapt classic works of literature. - The Bookshelf Film Society meets once a quarter to discuss the film adaptations of books; local film professor Lisa Mitchell guides the discussion each month.
