Yesterday, we asked listeners to tell us what movie version of a book they like better than the book itself. Many of you responded with answers ranging from the classic “Shawshank Redemption” to the movie based on the graphic novel, “Persepolis.” Some of you thought movies can simplify a book’s sprawling plot, and others felt movies breathed life into their favorite characters. Listen to what listeners had to say and add your own!
At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.
Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
