I was going to ask which version you watched, but it's obvious. The first movie with Jack Nicholson is classic. I suggest you rent that version. I was not impressed at all with the latest rendition.

99% of the movies based on books stink because they change too much to 'keep it interesting', or the book itself (good or bad, your opinion) is so long they cut out key parts. Shame really for some movies.
