About this product

Product Information

Stephen 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. This collection features new commentary and introductions to all of these stories in a treasure-trove of movie trivia.

  • A humbling experience for Stephen King that made for a great book!

    I bought this to continue my collection of Stephen King novels/stories, and am very pleased to have it on my shelves! I loved reading King's own thoughts about the stories and the movies made from them. He has no problem criticizing his work, making him more "real" to the reader. Though, these stories can be found in King's other books of collective short stories, the one thing that set it apart from the rest was his own input. He gave the reader a sense of being "there" while enjoying each piece.

  • Rare King book

  • Stephen King's 'Stephen King Goes To The Movies'

    Not really a review, by King of all the films made from his works. It's a re-publishing of 5 of previously published short stories, or novellas, with a one-two page critique of the films, according to King's views. Somewhat disappointing, in reality. I only wish he'd write a review of ALL the films made from his tales, maybe done much in the style of his previous works, 'On Writing', or 'Dance Macabre'. Actually a waste of my money.

  • Thrilling!

    Awesome!
