Stephen King Goes To The Movies

In Stephen King Goes to the Movies, King revisits five of his favorite short stories that have been turned into films: The Shawshank Redemption(based on the novella "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption") was nominated for seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture and best actor for Morgan Freeman. 1408 starred John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson and was a huge box office success in 2007. The short story "Children of the Corn" was adapted into the popular Children of the Corn. The Mangler was inspired by King's loathing for laundry machines from his own experience working in a laundromat. Hearts In Atlantis (based on "Low Men in Yellow Coats," the first part of the novel Hearts In Atlantis ) starred Anthony Hopkins. If you have all of King's books, you already have the stories in previous collections: "The Shawshank Redemption" appeared in DIFFERENT SEASONS, "1408" from EVERYTHING'S EVENTUAL, "Children of the Corn" from NIGHT SHIFT, "The Mangler" from NIGHT SHIFT, and "Low Men in Yellow Coats" from HEARTS IN ATLANTIS.

Only the most dedicated King fans will have read all of these stories, and even those who have will want to pick up this book to read King's reflections. Sure, it's obviously a way to sale copies of stories previously published, but the new reflections make it worth the modest price. I suggest it to casual and die hard Stephen King fans alike.
