"Love or Fidelity" A brilliant article exploring the nature of adapting books to the big screen

I love this exploration about the nature of film adaptation. Sigrid Nunez is one of my all-time favorite authors, and this piece explores how two films—one successfully but unfaithfully, one not so successfully by with more fidelity—took these novels I love and put them on screen. What films do you think adapted a seemingly hard-to-adapt film? (A Cock and Bull Story comes to mind, for me.)
