Book to Screen Club: The Devil All The Time by Donald Ray Pollock
Update: 2020-10-13
Description
This week we cover The Devil All the Time by Donald Ray Pollack (Doubleday, 2011) and the new adaptation by directed by Antonio Campos (The Sinner, The Punisher, Christine, Simon Killer, and Afterschool), as well adapted by Antonio and Paulo Campos. Starring all the superhero and British were some memorable southern accents. An unrelentingly brutal read and watch, but it has its own rewards if you can make it to the end. As per usual spoilers aplenty! We break down the book and the film and try and figure out whether or not the original is the best or did they improve on the text.
