Speaking of Movies

[peggy-2.livejournal.com]

This is sort of off topic, but addresses the issue of taking a beloved YA book/book series and making a movie out of it.  Tomorrow When the War Began by John Marsden is the first of a hugely popular Australian book series, and the movie is set in Australia (filmed near Newcastle).  The books were reprinted in the US about 8 years ago.

I thought the video clip did a fabulous job discussing the concerns and difficulty converting a book to a screen play... and those lovely Aussie accents are fun to listen to, just all on their own  : )
