Which would you nominate for worst/best book-to-movie adaptation?

I would say the 1990s version of Little Women is my worst. The story didn't follow the book as well, the actors weren't believable, and the spirit of the book was not there. I did catch part of the 1930s version and I liked it a lot better.

My favorite book is City of Joy about a family in the slums of Calcutta India. It was made into a horrible movie with Patrick Swayze as the main priest character and everything was "cleaned up" for the movie audience.

Lovely Bones would be the worst book to movie for me. I loved the book. Many scenes in the movie were even in the book. To me, it was nothing like the book. I bought the DVD before watching it and such a waste of money for me.
