This YA Adaptation Might Be Better Than The Book And We Didn't See It Coming

We're dropped right into Adaptations Month, and Meaghan and Shirin are fired up about one of the most talked-about YA adaptations in recent memory: We Were Liars by E. Lockhart, now an eight-episode Amazon Prime series.Right away, we're treated to some healthy debate. Shirin adores the book; she champions the writing, the twist, and the mood. Meaghan? Not so much. She found the prose pretentious and didn't enjoy the tone at all. This dynamic sets the stage for a lively and honest conversation that's far from sugar-coated.The book, first published in 2014, holds a kind of pop-culture cult status. It's a staple on “must-read” YA lists and has been adored (and criticized) for its dark twist and dreamy narration.The show adaptation dropped in June and currently holds a 6.6/10 on IMDb and a 63% on Rotten Tomatoes, with both audience and critics matching scores, which the hosts point out as surprisingly rare. There's clear curiosity about how the adaptation stands up to the book and how viewers have received it.Breaking Down the Sinclair Family DramaThe story follows the Sinclair family, a wealthy old-money clan who summers on a private island called Beechwood off Martha's Vineyard. The family patriarch, Harris Sinclair, and his wife Tipper (yes, those are the names) built individual homes on the island for each of their daughters: Carrie, Penny, and Bess. Penny is Cadence's (Katie's) mom, our main character and narrator. Each woman has children, and their interactions form the backbone of the story.Every summer, the family returns to the island, and the teenage cousins, along with Ed's nephew Gat, form a group known as “the Liars.” We watch this group grow, fracture, and unravel across two pivotal summers: Summer Sixteen and Summer Seventeen.Cadence experiences a mysterious accident in Summer Sixteen, one that leads to memory loss, trauma, and isolation. She's told she needs to recover the memories on her own, but no one in her family will talk about what really happened. That's the tension. That's the story.We quickly learn that the family is deeply dysfunctional. The three sisters are competitive, toxic, and frequently cruel to each other and their children. There are fractures built on favoritism, inheritance squabbles, and the oppressive rule of Harris, who exerts power through manipulation.Meaghan and Shirin are quick to point out how relatable and painful these dynamics are, even if they're dramatized through the extreme wealth and privilege of the Sinclair family.The Adaptation: What Worked, What Didn'tThe hosts appreciated the show's ability to visually distinguish timelines, for instance, Katie dyes her hair brown in Summer Seventeen, which makes the back-and-forth between past and present much easier to track. That little visual clue, while simple, goes a long way in helping the viewer follow the complex timeline.They also agree that the show did a good job capturing Katie's slow, painful unraveling. As she pieces together the truth about what happened during Summer Sixteen, viewers are taken through fragmented flashbacks, clues, and unspoken cues from the people around her. There's a slow burn, but one that keeps you guessing.However, the hosts were split on the show's tone. Meaghan couldn't stand how much of the book's prose, which she already disliked, made it into the show. Shirin felt the adaptation captured the dreamy, metaphor-rich storytelling of the original text. They were both impressed, though, with how well the show built out the adult characters, something the book couldn't do because it was told strictly from Katie's point of view.Where the show shone was in its character development. The three sisters were given more emotional weight, especially Bess, played by Candice King (Caroline from The Vampire Diaries).Penny and Bess are both awful mothers, but Bess in particular has a redemptive arc that adds depth to her character, even if Shereen refuses to fully forgive her. Carrie, portrayed by Mamie Gummer (Meryl Streep's daughter), is also given a solid backstory, including a history of addiction and the immense grief of losing her son.One of the biggest revelations is that Katie's conversations with the other Liars in Summer Seventeen are hallucinations. Johnny, Mirren, and Gat, her beloved cousins and love interest, all died in the fire they set together the previous summer. Katie is the only survivor. The moment she remembers the family dogs perishing too hits particularly hard, both for the hosts and the viewers.The adaptation handled this twist masterfully. Even though readers of the book already know what's coming, the visual storytelling keeps it compelling. The Liars appear fully present, interact naturally, and are only revealed to be figments of Katie's traumatized mind much later. The show plants subtle clues, like a little cousin asking Katie for a ghost story, and her replying that Marin should tell it, a chilling line, considering Marin is dead.Characters We Love (And Love To Hate)While the central romance between Katie and Gat didn't work for either host, they found the actors had little chemistry, and Gat felt underwritten, they adored several supporting characters. Eben, a young Black man on the island, was a standout for both hosts. His observations about race and privilege injected authenticity and groundedness into the otherwise opulent storyline.Ed, Carrie's longtime partner and Gat's uncle, also stood out. Raoul Cooley brought depth and warmth to the character, especially given how he was mistreated by Harris and sidelined by the family. Harris himself, played by David Morse, is despicable but fascinating. His subtle manipulation, racism, and emotional abuse are layered in such a way that his true awfulness creeps up on you, much like it does for the family.Shirin and Meaghan appreciated how the show didn't shy away from showing the Sinclairs as morally bankrupt, even when dressed in pastels and smiling for family photos. There's a constant undercurrent of performative unity, especially in the final scenes when they pose for media photos to “look good,” even as their relationships are broken beyond repair.Wrapping It Up: Why The Show Might Be Better Than The BookIn the end, both hosts came to a surprising agreement: the show might actually be better than the book. It doesn't happen often, but the added character development, the expansion of side plots, and the emotionally raw performances made the TV series more compelling overall.What really pushed it over the edge for Shirin was how the show focused on generational trauma, expectations placed on women, and the psychological consequences of wealth and privilege.Watching the three sisters grapple with their roles as mothers, daughters, and wives was more engaging than any teenage romance. The drama of their relationships, the fighting, the denial, the toxic parenting, was, as they said, “way more interesting than the will-they-won't-they between Katie and Gat.”They also discussed the series' ending, which toys with the idea of ghosts and heaven a bit too much for their liking, but concluded that the show's strength lies in its emotional realism, not supernatural mystery.The final verdict? Even if you didn't love the book, the show's worth a watch. It's messy, emotionally complicated, and full of characters you'll both hate and sympathize with, sometimes at the same time.

Utah could be the first state to ban wide-scale fluoridation of public water.

Now, 43 years after the 1980 release of historical epic CALIGULA, producer and reconstructionist Thomas Negovan has realized the creators' original vision with CALIGULA: THE ULTIMATE CUT, a version comprised of entirely never-before-seen footage shot in 1976. Shadowed by the murder of his entire family, the young, wary Caligula (Malcolm McDowell) eliminates his devious adoptive grandfather (Peter O'Toole) and seizes control of the declining Roman Empire, descending into a spiral of depravity, destruction, and madness. A treatise on the corrupting influence of power, this extensive reconstruction of the notorious 1980 spectacle, CALIGULA: THE ULTIMATE CUT restores the complete performances of Malcolm McDowell and Helen Mirren, as the promiscuous 'Caesonia', from an unprecedented amount of never before seen footage. Sumptuous set designs by two-time Oscar winner Danilo Donati. CALIGULA: THE ULTIMATE CUT aligns closely to Vidal's original script, especially with the addition of a prologue that illustrates one of Vidal's missing scenes, created by noted graphic artist Dave McKean (Grant Morrison's Arkham Asylum, Neil Gaiman's Sandman). Nearly 100 hours of original footage was discovered by the film's re-constructionist, film historian Thomas Negovan, in the Penthouse archive, which showcases astounding performances from the film's cast, fully realizing McDowell's complex, charismatic 'Caligula' and resurrecting Mirren's layered character arc, which now cements the film's final hour. Producer & Re-constructionist Thomas Negovan joins us to talk about his own daunting journey of reviewing the hundreds of hours of footage, his decision to use an enormous amount of never before seen footage in this final cut, seeking out many the surviving cast and crew, provide an artistic context to McDowell's performance and to give the film a chance to be seen as flawed, but wildly ambitious cinematic journey into the heart of a darkness at the rotting core of the Roman Empire.

On a transatlantic odyssey to discover the magic of Bob Hoskins, the Shat Crew instead finds itself wondering "is this Ireland?" and "did all the English look alike in the 1970s?" Come get lost with us in "The Long Good Friday." In this episode, Gene laments the loss of '70s pub culture and criticizes the film's wasted deaths with no emotional impact. Dick focuses on the "slasher film" vibe of the movie and praises the complexity of Harold Shand. And in a rare moment of cinematic insight, both Shat hosts critique the camera angles, sets, plot and editing of "The Long Good Friday." Of course, we also make time to talk about Hoskins' sexy shower scene, Helen Mirren's impact on a young Dick Ebert and the technique of dramatic irony.

Listen to learn how Mirren got in character, how she deals with ageism in Hollywood, plus - why she'd join the protestors against the judicial overhaul.  “Golda” opens in theaters on August 25.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Disney continues the legacy of former Jedi Knight in the new and likable streaming series “Ahsoka.” The (mostly) true story of a kid with leg braces who dreams of playing Major League Baseball comes to the screen in "The Hill."  Helen Mirren takes on the role of Golda Meir during the 1973 Yom Kippur War in “Golda,” While Liam Neeson takes on another action role in “Retribution.” Adam Sandler and family stars in "You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah." But the most fascinating thing Andy watched this weekend; “BS High,” a jaw-dropping documentary about Bishop Sycamore High "School's” sports scandal.  Beyond Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Gaming, and Tech, the brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing the nerdy.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for June 23, 2023 is: hashtag • HASH-tag • noun A hashtag is a word or phrase that starts with the symbol # and that categorizes or comments on the text or image it accompanies. The word hashtag can also refer to the symbol # as used in a hashtag. // She used the hashtag #VeganEats to search social media for new recipes and restaurants she could add to her list. See the entry > Examples: “While attending the opening ceremony for the screening of the festival's opening film, ‘Jeanne du Barry,' the ‘Shazam! Fury of the Gods' star [Dame Helen Mirren] walked the red carpet at Palais des Festivals in Cannes, France, and showed off a blue hairstyle to match her blue gown. Mirren paired her look with matching earrings, a necklace and a black fan with the hashtag #WorthIt.” — Angeline Jane Bernabe, ABC News, 16 May 2023 Did you know? Hashtags are an everyday part of Internet culture, thanks to social media. Originally designed for categorizing posts (i.e., tagging them) on Twitter, hashtags now commonly also supplement or comment on whatever text or image they accompany. The “hash” in hashtag is short for hash mark, a term for what we also call a pound sign or, if you want to apply the word-nerdiest designation, an octothorpe. Hash in this case is probably an alteration of hatch, a term for the lines artists sometimes use to add shading to a drawing. #WordNerdery

This week is our South of France episode, which coincides with the Cannes Film Festival. Graydon Carter, a Co-Editor at Air Mail, tells us about the inspiration behind this special issue and takes us inside our party at the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc. Then we have two great stories about movies: Josh Karp has the scoop on a film Dame Helen Mirren called “an irresistible mix of art and genitals”—the 1979 erotic historical drama Caligula, which starred Mirren, Malcolm McDowell, more than a few PenthousePets, and Gore Vidal. (Talk about an orgy of talent … ) Then Sam Wasson has the story of the five-time Academy Award–winning director who was so angry that he could not get financing for his film that he literally threw his Oscars out the window in a fit of apocalyptic rage—and, in the process, created the template for a new kind of indie filmmaker. Can you guess who that is? Sam will reveal the answer. All this and more make this a show you won't want to miss.
