So many more questions

I think the director has to put in more characters or change the set so he can shoot an hour movie. In a short story the reader just gets a taste of what happened but in the movie, things hve to be remodified. For example if a shirt fits one person and doesn't another, the taylor has to modify the shirt so it fits the other guy. Sometimes this can make or break a movie. It can make it by giving it more action, detail, and drama which is what critics love, or it can be exactly the same, so if the book was boring to people, and they make the movie the same way people are not going to watch it as much. I do not know anyting about what an author thinks if a movie is way different from the movie. I think if the director did not include the author's input in the movie, the author has no say in the movie scenes. I think some authors are just happy they are making money and having his or her story made into a film.
