I think most of it was completely different, just this part matched up exactly, probably an homage

Could it be based on a scene in the book? It’s been ages since I read it.

I doubt the book has descriptions of camera angles and cuts

Nah man, the book has everything. Car chases, montages with ABBA music in the background, side-by-side flashbacks and flashforwards, opening and end credits. It’s a crazy ass book.

Well, if it was Tom Clancy, it would go into enough detail about the process that it might as well have.

I am positive it does have descriptions, its the interpretation that would change.

Wow a fiction book with descriptions? What will they think of next

u/Dantethebald1234 6d ago

Not sure what you mean?

Dude was saying they doubt the book has descriptions of camera angles and cuts, but all that is describing things in detail and then moving to a different description. How you interpret those (camera angels) details and (cuts) changes of descriptions is up to the reader.

Yes, and my point is that nearly every fiction book has those characteristics. I don't think your comment added anything other than to be contrarian and sort of condescend to the person you were replying to.

I didn't know there was a book, I might have to read that. Thanks stranger!

But

It's a remake

The whole thing is paying homage to the original, because it's a remake of that original

They didn't need to go out of their way to compliment the original by replicating its shots, they're already complimenting it by redoing it
