![]() I am glad I watched it, but I don’t consider it a classic or a must watch. They say it is a classic movie with great actors and directing. I know a lot of people and reviewers love this movie. ![]() It worked as a book, but I didn’t think it worked nearly as well as a movie. My issue with this is just that I didn’t think it made for a great movie in general. You felt like you really were in the bookstore in London or with the author in New York. It was much closer to the book than most movies based on books. ![]() The movie 84, Charing Cross Road, followed the book very closely. It is a book of letters back and forth between the author, a bookseller, and his family and co-workers. It is a book about books but also about so much more. I have mixed thoughts on this book vs movie. I did not even know that there was a movie based on the book until recently. I am not sure how popular the movie was at the time. It starred Anne Bancroft, Anthony Hopkins, and Judi Dench. The movie 84, Charing Cross Road, was released in 1987. ![]() It is a very popular book for people that love books about books. Do you love a good book vs movie as much as we do?Ĩ4, Charing Cross Road is a book of letters between a New York writer and a London used bookseller in the years following WWII. Today, we are doing 84, Charing Cross Road, for a book vs movie review. ![]()
