Isn't this definitionally impossible? Verisimilitude implies that absolute replication of reality is impossible. I agree with your point, but I think having this idealistic, impossible goal is worth of pursuit.

It seems to me that, if a goal is not only undesirable but also unachievable, there is no reason to pursue it.

A major character. A. Meaning that if you reduced the scenes around them, the movie would be significantly changed.

Besides that, I don't know what to tell ya if you can't see the inner life in Hirsch's or William's characters, or how they communicate that life through performance, outside of plot beats (ie, "facts").



Whaaaaaa? Absolutely gobsmacked anyone could say this, about either medium.



This suggests you're viewing the movie through the lens of the book.

(The movie is fine. The book is better bc it has more depth. The original story is about psychological distress, told in a medium that allows the reader direct insight into the characters' minds.)

Yep, you're right.

Yep, you're right.
