When a
filmmaker is making a movie that is based off of a book, there are a lot of
complications. The number one thing a filmmaker has to make happen is picking
out actors that really understand their character and actually transform into
that character. The next thing filmmakers have to understand the book and
decide what is needed and what isn’t needed. This is difficult because if you
cut out a certain part of the book, the audience will either be okay with it or
get infuriated.
In the book “Fight Club” this is
very difficult because there are so many small sections that play a big part in
the book and it is also quite confusing at times. So the filmmaker has to keep
the plot the same but also make sure it isn’t confusing. It’s a difficult task. They also have to
remember they can’t make it 3 hours long (Gone with the Wind), no one wants to
sit through a movie that is that incredibly long.
