A new (non-music) vessel from the Sombrero harbour · Launching Friday 30 October
Which is better, the book or the film?
Every episode, Ian Deeker Forth reviews a book, then co-host James Hillhouse reviews the film of the book. One novel, one adaptation, and the oldest argument in the cinema foyer: was the book better?
How it works
First, the book
Ian Deeker Forth
Ian reads the novel and reviews it: the story, the writing, and whether it deserved a film at all. Ian also hosts Sombrero Fallout.
Then, the film
James Hillhouse
Co-host James watches the adaptation and reviews the film of the book: what made it to the screen, what got cut, and what Hollywood did to it.
