- How the film and novel of Kings Row, set at the end of the 1800s, captivated the imagination of Tedd Burr in the 1940s
- The complicated and deeply personal relationship that developed between Burr and Bellamann, even though they never met in person

Book Vs. Movie is the podcast that ponders the question: "Which was better...the book or the movie?" We spoil away the details, uncover the plot points, discuss casting choices and shower with praise (or pummel with snark) as we see fit. Hosts are Margo P. (She's Nacho Mama's Blog) and Margo D. (Creator of Brooklyn Fit Chick.com) and we are not afraid to tell it like it is!
