The movie's screenplay is the biggest insult to the novel's author

I mean it this way: 1 chapter into the book and I already put it into a fanfiction work. Is this how people get published these days? Really? It was a black (ink) on white (paper) telling, but where was the story?

So as I was pondering the literary crime the author committed, I saw the movie. It completely deviated from its book, that by the end the only common thing they have is their title: Beastly.

Justice served.

Just in case I have not been clear: If not for my abnormal want for closure, I would have closed the book after the first page. If not for @ActuallyNPH, I wouldn’t have finished the movie.
