Has seeing a film ever made you read the book it was based on?
I recently saw the Golden Compass and loved it, I've since bought the Northern Lights trilogy.

| If I am interested enough I will read the book first and then compare it to the movie. The movie is never the same as the book in fact sometimes better.

I saw the film Running With Scissors, that movie compelled me to read the book.
The book put the movie into better perspective, however seeing the movie first, made me see the characters like the actors in the film rather than my own idea of what the characters look like.
I generally like reading the books first - get a mental image yourself of the characters, settings etc, then watch the movie.
