AMC showing Oscar nominees based on books

Posted by Lola on January 30th, 2008 filed in books, movies

The Saturday before the Oscars, February 23rd, AMC Theatres is selling an all-day ticket to showings of all five Best Picture nominated movies.  Three of the five movies are based on or inspired by novels:

“Atonement” - Atonement by Ian McEwan

“There Will Be Blood” - Oil! by Upton Sinclair

“No Country for Old Men” - No Country for Old Men by Cormac McCarthy

Are you planning on attending the AMC event, or have you already seen the films?  How do you think the novels compare to the movies?
