P.S. Never read books before watching the film adaptation. In 95% of cases, you will spit from adaptation. In my memory, only Flying over the Cuckoo's Nest turned out to be more interesting than the book, even if the director redid one important topic, which Kesey, the author of the novel, did not agree with. Well, the adaptation of comics / games is a completely different story, of course.
