29 APR 2024 · Book Vs. Movie: The Natural The 1952 Novel Vs. the 1984 Movie "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Natural_(film)l" by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernard_Malamudand its 1984 movie adaptation directed by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Levinson offers different experiences despite sharing the same storyline. The book delves deeper into the psychological aspects of the protagonist and explores themes of fate, ambition, and the corrupting influence of success. The film focuses more on the romantic and mythic elements of the narrative and simplifies certain plotlines and characters. However, it's visually stunning with a powerful score that enhances the story's emotional impact.  Which did we (the Margos) prefer? Have a listen to find out.
