What does the saying“There are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people's eyes” mean Do you know of any similar sayings in Chinese
What other reasons do you think make movie adaptations less satisfactory than the original books
Check the answers
It means readers usually have different ideas about how the characters from a certain novel should be like.
Similar sayings in Chinese include“一千个人眼中有一千个 林黛玉/贾宝玉”, “仁者见仁，智者见智”etc.
2. Because of the time limits and the aim of high profits, the filmmakers edit the storyline and remove most of the imagination.
Because the digital cinema technology is not mature enough.

1They say that “a picture is worth a thousand words”, but the briefest look at books and the movies based on them would have anyone questioning this common saying. All too often, great words end up being turned into cinematic “turkeys”．

2Good movies need good stories. If so, why has one of the earliest and greatest works in Western storytelling, Homer’s The Odyssey, never had an equally great movie based on it Movies need strong characters. So why have the movies based on The Great Gatsby never been praised as “great” Movies of course need impressive images, so why has Alice in Wonderland only resulted in movies best described as “interesting”

3One of the key reasons behind this is that while a book usually takes a few days to read, a movie typically lasts under two hours. This means that great books can lose plot details and characters when they move to the big screen. This is something that even the highly successful Harry Potter movies can’t escape from, with fans of the books disappointed not to see some of their favourite characters in the movie versions.

4Movies also disappoint us when things don’t look the way we imagined them in the books. Take, for example, the epic movie Troy, which is in part based on Homer’s The Iliad and was met with mixed reviews from the audience. The most questionable issue was the actress chosen to play the part of Helen. Many people thought she didn’t live up to Helen’s title of “the most beautiful woman in the world”, influencing opinions of the movie to some extent.

5There are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people’s eyes. Furthermore, books and movies are two different forms of media and therefore have different rules. With this in mind, perhaps we should judge a movie in its own right, and not against its original source.

Interestingly, audiences have in recent years turned to television series such as Sherlock or Mad Men, which can have many characters and gradual plot development. Perhaps, one day, readers of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s most admired work will find themselves glued to their screens by episodes of The Great Gatsby.
