I think the neverending story is the only time I felt the film was better than the book. 99.99% of the time it's the reverse
in a fantasy tale so heavily reliant on imagery to convey the point (basically a case study in dealing with depression and embracement of those unlike ourselves) they knocked it out of the park in the film. the book felt was pedantic in comparison
incidentally the film is available for free on yt, as it should be
and everyone needs a Falkor
PS if you like reading check out Fight Night by Miriam Toews. SO badass, cannot rec it highly enough, if you've read something newish that's awesome, reply rec's appreciated. might take the sting out of the death of cams
