Book Vs Movie Podcast
Book Vs. Movie: Kings Row (1940 novel vs 1942 Film)Today, we are joined by special guest co-host Lenny Pinna of Ecclesia Arts. This is the first of a two-part conversation with Lenny about Kings Row, and the unusual relationship its author had at the end of his life with a young fan struggling with gender identity. In this episode, we discuss:
- How Kings Row, a novel set at the end of the 1800s, is more relevant than ever.
- The differences between the book and the movie.
- The themes of class, prejudice, psychology, and sanctimony in the movie.
- Why certain characters and story lines were cut from the movie

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!
