Movie...well I think Lord of the Rings trilogy. No movie has captured the essence of a book as well. And the special effects are just mind blowing!

Though when I was in school, Matilda by Roald Dhal was adapted into a movie!!!...And all i can say that it was a treat to watch!! 😳 😃 ...

Harry Potter Rulz, so that will be in my list as well!! 😳 😆 😉 ....

Something more mature, 🤔 🤔 would be the BBC adaption of Janes Austen's Pride and Prejudice, 👏 👏 😳 we had to study the novel at school as well, so I remember that clearly!! 😳 😃 ...

Basically all the BBC'c adaptions off all off Jane Austen's novels 👏 👏 was a pleasure to watch!! 😉 😃

Those are the ones I can think off now! Though i know there are many more! 😃 😳

⭐️⭐️⭐️Totally Agree with you!⭐️⭐️⭐️ The BBC adaption of Pride and Prejudice was absolutely splendid! It's in fact my fav western movie! The 2005 film on Pride and Prejudice was okay, but it lacked the romance and tang of the BBC version. I thought Keira Knightley was miscast in the role of Elizabeth, but the Jane actress was really good, and the guy who played Darcy was not that bad either (though I have to admit that I'm partial to Colin Firth big time!😆)

The Harry Potter movies aren't as great as the books, but it's still a great pleasure to see them every time they come out, and I own all the DVDs, so I guess you can say I like the HP movies.
