Best movies adapted from a book.

Apt Pupil - short story by Stephen King (part of the Bachman Books, if memory serves...) one of my favorite King stories and I think they did a fine job making it a movie... I actually like that they used a lesser known cast in this movie...

Apt Pupil was p[art of the "Different Seasons" collection which actually gave us two of the best king movies- Shawshank and Stand by Me. the fourth one was never turned into a movie. I thought Apt Pupil was a good movie but didn't go far enough into Todd's insanity and obsession as the short story did. it also had a better ending with Bowman going insane and shooting people on the freeway.
