SeattleUte has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Default The movie is better than the book?

The old saying is the book is better than the movie. But not always. On rare occasions the movie is better.

Here are some:

The Godfather

Ben-Hur

The Maltese Falcon (just barely; it's close but the movie noses out the book)

Bladerunner

Lord of the Rings? (blasphemy I know but I bet a case could be made)

Others?
