From page to stage: discussing penguin lessons with Tom Michell

Kova PR asked me a lot that he attended a previous view projection a couple of weeks ago from the new movie. Penguin lessonsStarring Steve Coogan and based on the book of the same name of Tom Michell, but I could not reach Soho in time after my regular meeting of the book of books. However, I am delighted to welcome Tom to Linda bag Today to chat with me everything about the movie and the book Penguin lessons.

Let’s find out more:

This would be Penguin lessons!

I thought it could be! What can we expect from one night in Penguin lessons – Both the book and the movie?

Becoming a book into a movie is a very interesting process, but not full of surprising things, everything is really logical.

  1. The movies have to eliminate a lot. A 2 -hour film cannot cover a 10 -hour reading.
  2. Much of my book is a description of what I can see, what I am doing and what I am thinking. That monologue has to be a dialogue and events have to pass people. That seems to require many changes. But … if you think about conversations with the fictitious people required for dialogue as nothing more than the monologue in Tom’s mind, then the two things, the book and cinema are very aligned. Think about him Pi life. Was it the huge Bengal tiger in the real life boat or in Pi’s mind? Without the terrifying man eating monster in the lifeboat with the child, there is nothing more than a child, passing in a boat for days, struggling to survive. That is not an interesting movie. But let’s see the tiger and bingo!
  3. The Penguin’s story is identical in books and cinema.

Interesting. I think the moment is one of the reasons why I prefer to read instead of listening to audiobooks (apart from the fact that I am in an age in which seat). It takes a long time to read me and, you are right, the movies must be selective.

What else have you brought and why have you brought it?

What brings me the greatest pleasure is the incorporation of Penguin lessons in the South Korean National Curriculum. I have the textbook.

Wow! That is amazing Tom. How exciting.

When a nation of about 50 million people (and possibly the highest educational standard in the world) comes to a totally unknown author and says: “We want to put its history in front of our most precious asset, our youth, our high school children from 14 to 16 years old, because it has something we believe is good and will help them.” That is orders of magnitude greater than any literary prize, even if it does not have all the razzamataz and the exaggeration of self -attack associated with those rewards.

I think education is worth much more than endless Tom Awards. Thank you very much for staying with me to chat about Penguin lessons. Congratulations on both the movie and for the book.
