The Hunt for Red October
Gone with the Wind The Black Stallion (loved both as a kid but the beach scenes on the desert island were lovely on film) This is a show but "Jeeves and Wooster" series did the best job of being true to a book I have ever seen. Though nothing is better than Wodehouse in print. So witty! |
