The year 2019 can also be described as the year of film adaptations - the time to leaf through the books they are based on before their release is getting less and less. These books you have to read before they become movies.
In the course of the year so far, we have already been delighted by some film adaptations, such as, for example No touch (Five Feet Apart, 2019) and Best enemy (The Best of Enemies, 2019). In the second half of the year, we can expect many other films that are found inspiration in bestselling books.
You can prepare for them by reading books before their release, after of which they are recorded.
