    I read the book back in the 90s and didn’t try to watch the movie until a couple years ago because I just didn’t believe it could live up to the book despite the critical acclaim that the movie has.

    Holy hell it was right on track up to the point I stopped and I assume it stayed faithful for the rest.

      If memory serves, in the movie she only breaks his ankles with a sledgehammer instead of cutting off his foot (feet?).

        I would call that a minor difference that was necessary for the adaptation at that time. Same end result of being unable to walk.
