Adapting novels for the big screen has long been a fruitful tradition for Hollywood. From Gone With the Wind to Forrest Gump some of the most successful movies in history have come from the page. So why then did it take over 50 years for a silver-screen adaptation of the 1970 classic Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret.
Luckily, despite all that time, the result is worth the wait. The cinematic adaptation was only released earlier in 2023 and has now also arrived on Amazon Prime Video. With 99% on Rotten Tomatoes, I decided to give it a go and I was not disappointed.
