Sai King's Court - Readers & Watchers of Stephen King
You are humbly invited to join SAI KING'S COURT. Each month we will read one of King's published writings AND watch its adaptation, whether movie, TV episode, or miniseries. This isn't about which is better or which we prefer, but rather what can we learn from how the incredibly different mediums of film and literature tackle the challenge inherent in storytelling. What are their benefits and limitations? Is there ever value in comparing books and movies to each other? How can we best appreciate each medium for what it is?
We will begin by reading King's first novel, CARRIE, and, on our own, watching the original movie adaptation starring Sissy Spacek (you can choose to watch as many of the myriad adaptations as you wish.) This promises to be an exhilarating adventure! Those who reach out before September 1, 2025, will receive a Doodle poll to help finalize the monthly meeting date and time.
