My last final is about the book Paddy Clarke Ha Ha Ha, and wether or not it would be good as a film. Now, it's a story about the lives and interactions of 10 yr old and younger boys, and they do a lot of violent things to each other (in a joking way, but still very violent) like putting lighter fluid in a little brothers mouth and setting his mouth on fire.
Now, I know that there are enough visually exciting aspects of the novel which would make it an interesting movie, but a lot of it is also a collection of random thoughts and feeling from the main boy that would be lost in moving from page to screen. Those aspects are about even, so, I'll make it a yes, it can be successfully turned into a film from a novel if there are no laws in the movie industry that would make it difficult to show the boys being so violent towards each other (and some animals as well, mostly rats), adn I will make it a no i fthere are laws that will make it difficult to show the violence, even though it's all in play, between these boys.
Yeah, i know I could just make the paper about my own opinion, but I alwasy liek to put extra little facts in there- I swear this is why the professor loves me so much.
Thank's for any info you have![]()
