Hollywood releases dozens of movies based on books each year, but lately the theaters seem to be brimming with films based on the classics. Some movies to look forward to in the near future include Les Miserables (12/25), The Hobbit (12/14), Anna Karenina (11/16), and The Great Gatsby (summer 2013). Our book club is reading The Hobbit in preparation for seeing the movie. Which movies are you most excited about? Are you nervous about how true they hold to the book? Or do you see the movie as completely separate from the book?
