Screen Time: V For Vendetta

After covering books one through three of Alan Moore and David Lloyd's graphic novel V For Vendetta, we are getting into the 2005 film adaptation, directed by James McTeigue, written (and perhaps shadow-directed) by the Wachowski Sisters, and starring Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving. We'll talk about this being a rare case where the film may be better than the book, and what changed from the page to the screen.Follow us on Twitter!<a href="https://twitter.com/DanaSchwartzzz">@DanaSchwartzzz</a><a href="https://twitter.com/JenAshleyWright">@JenAshleyWright</a><a href="https://twitter.com/koramadrama">@koramadrama</a><a href="https://twitter.com/melissaFTW">@MelissaFTW</a>and Tien has wisely gotten off Twitter but is on Insta <a href="https://www.instagram.com/hanktina/">@hanktina</a> Learn more about your ad-choices at <a href="https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com">https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com</a>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.

A group of smart, funny friends meet together every week to talk about the book they’re reading—a book that just so happens to be incredibly buzzy and in the zeitgeist because it has an adaptation coming up on the big screen or via streaming. Because when everyone at work is talking about it, we want to be the smug ones who can say we actually read the book first. Hosted by Dana Schwartz, Jennifer Wright, Korama Danquah, Melissa Hunter, and Tien Tran. New episodes every Monday!
