We follow The Kid as he traverses Richard Jessup's pithy text,
calculating the odds of his life and preparing for the ultimate
showdown with The Man. Then we switch gears and grip the armrests
as The Kid is pummeled by Hollywood - and all its sexy, violent
card tricks - in the complete text of the screenplay. Using this
Tango edition's unique similarity reporting and comprehensive
dialogue matching tools we can then track the transformation of
published novel to produced screenplay. The book contains a
complete comparison of all the characters, plots, as well as other
interesting observations. Dialogue that the screenplay writers took
word-for-word from the book is highlighted and the corresponding
novel page numbers are noted. (The eBook release contains
reciprocal dialogue linking as well as two complete versions of the
book - one with the dialogue similarities marked and the other with
no markings or links for pleasure reading.) The parsed data in this
book is a valuable tool for educators, students, novel authors,
screenplay writers, readers interested in adaptations, and readers
looking to dig into literature in a new and unique way.
