Stephen King Goes to the Movies


<p>Stephen King revisits five of his favorite short stories that have been turned into films: <i>The Shawshank Redemption</i> (based on the novella "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption") was nominated for seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture and best actor for Morgan Freeman. <i>1408</i> starred John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson and was a huge box office success in 2007. The short story "Children of the Corn" was adapted into the popular <i>Children of the Corn</i>. <i>The Mangler</i> was inspired by King's loathing for laundry machines from his own experience working in a laundromat. <i>Hearts in Atlantis</i> (based on "Low Men in Yellow Coats," the first part of the novel <i>Hearts in Atlantis</i>) starred Anthony Hopkins.</p> <p>This collection features new commentary and introductions to all of these stories in a treasure-trove of movie trivia.</p>
