 | A Hard Day's Night
Buy new: $8.49 / Used from: $5.94 The 1964 paperback was delightful. However, there were lines that one Beatle said in the book, but another Beatle said in the movie. Also, any excuse to watch Beatle footage; listen to them singing and watching the Fabs interact works for me!

 | The Beatles - Help!
Buy used from: $20.99 The 1965 paperback was delightful, but the film was infinitely better. Viewers are treated to Beatle footage; hearing the Beatles' music and watching the Beatles interact!

 | Bette Davis Centenary Celebration Collection (All About Eve / Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte / The Virgin Queen / Phone Call from a Stranger / The Nanny)
Buy new: $25.99 / Used from: $23.39 The 1965 movie "The Nanny" with Bette Davis was 100% better than the book, which was a stinker. This excellent movie changed the story's locale and scrapped the irrelevant subplot with Roberta.

 | Charly
Buy new: $7.49 / Used from: $6.45 Although I didn't like the book "Flowers For Algernon," the movie presented the story in a tad more palatable fashion. I still didn't like the story.
|
 | M*A*S*H (Widescreen Edition)
Buy new: $10.49 / Used from: $5.97 The 1970 movie was infinitely better than the book. Also the 1972-83 TV series exceeded the movie!
|
 | M*A*S*H - Season Nine (Collector's Edition)
Buy new: $31.99 / Used from: $15.77 The TV series M*A*S*H* was far better than the movie ever was. The cast was also far better than that of the movie.
|
 | A Clockwork Orange (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Buy new: $19.99 / Used from: $15.75 Although this was a very violent story, the movie was far better than the book. The movie was easier to follow as the book was bogged down with neologisms. I felt the neologisms detracted from the story.
|
 | Little Children
Buy new: $8.99 / Used from: $2.43 I was disappointed in the book, but I liked the film adaptation. The characters were much more appealing and sympathetic in the movie version.
|
 | The Nanny Diaries (Full Screen Edition)
Buy new: $17.99 / Used from: $4.84 I thought the film adaptation was far better than the book. The characters and story line was presented in a much more appealing light.
