Books turned into movies tend towards being the opposite if good. The directors will usually leave out significant parts of the book, that can help you have a better understanding. "The Goldfinch" by Donna Tart, is a lengthy book, having a total of 780 pages total and being turned into a 2 hour and 30-minute long film. I have a feeling that they might leave out important parts of the book. Because the book is long and they have a time limit with the making of the movie. The film is officially coming out in theaters September 13, and you bet that I'm going to be there watching the movie, in hopes that it's not as bad as I think.
The cast of the movie has some well-known actors. Such as Finn Wolfhard from Stranger Things playing the young version of Boris and Ansel Elgort from Baby Driver playing the older version of the protagonist, Theodore Decker. There are also other good actors to be seen in the movie. But even with such a good cast, it all comes down to how the film was made.
The book goes throughout Theodore's life from being young and being a survivor to a tragedy to growing older and living with it. He moves with his dad after his mother dies and he goes on an adventure with a stolen painting from a museum.
There are multiple minor parts of the book that, in my opinion, are important to be able to understand it. Since the movie isn't out yet I don’t exactly know what they decided to include and what not to include. But the cast overall seems pretty well-chosen so, I’m more at ease about how it might turn out. Bottom line, I’m going to be sitting there at the back of the theater, munching on overpriced wack popcorn watching the movie September 13.
