This week Matt and Scott begin their time with Stephen King's Gerald's Game as they read the novel in preparation to discuss Mike Flanagan's adaptation. This week, the first 8 chapters!
We chat about Stephen King's experimentation in both style and form, the challenge of adapting this book, and the wonderfully complex Jessie Burlingame.
Next week Gerald's Game continues with chapters 9-13 of the novel.
Discussion Question: What is your favorite character trapped in a bad situation story?
