On the last day of the holiday, I watched the film adaptation of A Walk in the Woods "Walk in the Woods". Some movies are not suitable for watching after reading the book. They are as boring as chewing bagasse. The forest seen from the text is always bigger and boundless than the camera lens. The author's extensive narration of the natural and social history of the eastern United States is also difficult to convey in a short film line.
An interesting adaptation is that the author has been scared and silently looking forward to encountering a bear in the book.
In the book, he bought a bear prevention manual. In the manual, the experts said that you should not run away when encountering a bear. You must yell and confront the bear. He complained that you can do it. Anyway, I want to Running. Then in the last few chapters of the book, he finally met a bear while camping at night. He and his companion searched for a long time without finding the Swiss Army Knife, so they could only tremble while holding the nail clippers... After several pages of thrilling psychological descriptions, the bear, coldly and disdainfully, turned his head and left silently...
In the movie, they are like this:
Then I suddenly remembered the notice I saw when I went hiking nearby a month ago:
When encountering a cougar, try to be more fierce than it! If it attacks you, fight back! It seems that from 1996 to 2019, the opinions of experts are still very consistent.
