Casino Royale? Yes, very good
The Shawshank Redemption?Watched this one many times, great movie (okay, novella, whatever. So add Stand By Me, too)
What are your favorite adaptations?
However,I totally give you this- the films of The Exorcist and The Godfather are much, much better than the books. The list of movies better than the books is pretty short. Oh, Jaws. Move Jaws to this list. Much better than the book.
