Read the book? See the movie? Do both? In what order? The questions surrounding movies adapted from the page have no easy answers.

“Stranger Things” star Finn Wolfhard talks about his role as Richie Tozier in the upcoming “It Chapter Two” and his supporting role in “The Goldfinch.”

“Catch-22" isn’t currently at the top of my reading list, but if I abstain from the miniseries, I can at least pretend that sooner or later I’ll do things the “right” way — and when I do, you can be certain I’ll avoid buying the version with Hulu’s big green logo on the cover. Doubtless this is a kind of snobbery, and yet it feels somehow noble as well.

Occasionally the process goes in reverse. I enjoyed “Sideways” and “Winter’s Bone” enough to go back and read the novels on which they were based, in both cases finding the source material inferior to the adaptation — but were they really, or was I simply inverting the book-was-better axiom because I’d been exposed to the movie first?I didn’t entirely abstain while reading “The Goldfinch” and “It,” however: I caved and watched the trailers.

Doing so had zero negative effects on my experience of the movie, which I enjoyed enough to not mind how often I found myself thinkingon opening night. “It” is a deeply weird, ungainly novel, and a truly faithful adaptation would have not only the infamousto contend with but also a turtle god who created the universe by vomiting it up after a stomachache, among myriad other oddities.

Everyone Already Hates The GoldfinchEveryone Already Hates The GoldfinchThe Goldfinch, the movie adaptation of Donna Tartt’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival over the weekend to a warm round of boos from film critics. The cast—Nicole Kidman, Jeffrey Wright, Ansel Elgort in glasses, and one of the Stranger Things’ boys—apparently wasn’t enough to save the film from being “lifeless” and maybe even the worst movie of the year.
