Never heard that name for it. But that’s perfect!

I’ve never heard of it before, but it looks awesome!
The Devil in the White City - would love to see the Chicago Worlds Fair brought to life in all it’s splendor, and to be directly contrasted with the horror that was HH Holmes murder castle. The book brought that history to life so vividly, and I feel like mini series with great casting would do incredibly well.
The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle - mysteries and whodunnits are popular again (thank god) and this one has such an interesting premise. When I first read it I was convinced it would be a great video game. But a movie would also be a hit.
Something Wicked this way Comes - not sure if this has ever been adapted, but I’ve never seen it. The book is so atmospheric and has such a rich cast of characters. We haven’t had a movie that really celebrates the moodiness of autumn in a while.
The Blue Grotto in Capri, or maybe some of the less famous grottos on the Mediterranean Coast. There is something so terrifying about being surrounded by rock formations, I’m not typically a claustrophobic person, but felt a visceral fear of being under that much rock with waves moving in and out of the cave. And yet the grotto is gorgeous because of the reflection of the light. The endless dark of the cave is lit by the most brilliant blue of the water.
I like to imagine the person who first discovers something like that, having to overcome the fear of the unknown and be rewarded with the best mother nature has to offer.
Long enough that by the time you were finished, you could return to the beginning and not get bored.
Alternatively, since it is so serialized, you could read individual chapters/sections and have a satisfying story conclusion. But nothing compares to the way all of the arcs come together for the final conclusion.
Agreed, the political posts are inevitable with a big election looming unless you filter a lot of subs you are stuck seeing the same ones. And lemmy doesn’t have enough content to turn over so you wind up seeing the same posts from 2 days ago with only 3 comments.
I figure the best thing to do is comment on anything I can and try to engage more people. I was such a lurker on Reddit, but that’s not helpful here.
I haven’t watched that in years! I’d almost forgotten how much young me liked it and now older me sees more wisdom in it.
