The Hunger Games movie is 'VERY FAITHFUL' to the book

hungergamesphils:

In an interview with MTV, Gary Ross talked about how faithful the movie is to the book:

One of the main reasons for that is Suzanne Collins

“She wrote the last draft of the script with me,” Gary said. “We collaborated. We were in a room together! We locked ourselves up in a room and literally wrote the last draft of the script together.”

He added:

“It’s very, very faithful in the literal sense, but it’s even more faithful in the tonal sense. My job is to give you that same visceral feeling you felt when you read the book.”

t’s a faithful adaptation. There are obviously differences, because I’m adapting a book to the screen, but no. It’s not like Peeta leaves the story or anything like that.”

What can you say about this? Are you relieved?
