We asked The Atlantic’s writers and editors: What’s a film adaptation that’s better than the book?

The article explains why they consider the movies Jurassic Park, The Talented Mr. Ripley, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, The Devil Wears Prada, The Social Network, and Clear and Present Danger each to be better than their source material.

    Burgess is a TITAN of literature, Stephen King wished he was half as good as Burgess.

    Having said that I don’t think Kubrick made a better film but god dam his film is so good.
