field of dreams

i feel that feild of dreams was a very good representation of shoeless joe by w.p. kinsellia because the director of the movie brought the magic of the book to the big screen. the director of the movie took the text and almost made it identicle to the text for the exception of a few names. i think its a good thing he stayed so close to the tex because if he changed it in any way the movie would have been boring. the directors message in the movie is as clear as w.p. kinsellias in the book kinsella had people bleive that there was a guy saying if you build it he will come and with that state ment i thank w.p is sending a message to the reader that if you think it you can do it and the director portrayed ray as the know nothing farmer. i think that the film was great also because they took their time and really tried to make it a great movie. what they did was unbelieveable they made it look like ray was talking to shoeless joe in the movie and thats what made the movie magicial bringing childhood memories back to life on the big screen now that waht i like to see. all in all the movie captured the message of the novel and the messages is dont give up on your hopes and dreams remember yor past and have fun with the joys of life and thats why field of dreams is souch a good adaptation of shoeless joe.
