It has been a great season for movies for the whole family This Friday is no exception as the book INKHEART will premiere on the big screen. This movie was once again adapted from a brilliant book by author Cornelia Funke.
Description:One cruel night, Meggie’s father, Mo, reads aloud from INKHEART, and an evil ruler named Capricorn escapes the boundaries of fiction, landing instead in their living room. Suddenly, Meggie’s in the middle of the kind of adventure she thought only took place in fairy tales. Somehow she must master the magic that has conjured up this nightmare. Can she change the course of the story that has changed her life forever?
“Beguiling…the story seems to have been sprinkled with some magical fairy dust.”–The New York Times Book Review
Hollywood take care to preserve the mastery that authors are bringing to the written word as it has and will continue to supply the rich material for so many of the pictures on the big screen.
