Well the other day I watched the film Angles and Demons. My opinion that books are better is right again. My husband who had not read the book commented that the film was not smooth and often the scenes were not connecting up. The relationships between people are not entirely understandable. Partly like Da Vinci Code the plot is set over a period of 24 hours and so a lot of the film is in the dark.
Am sure the getting locked into the Vatican library was with Vitoria and not a guard. There are of course chunks missing like when Robert Langdon goes up in the chopper to look for the next church and has to jump out of it. I do believe that at the 3rd church Robert had to hide in a sarcophagus and had to be let out by alerting the police outside with his mickey mouse watch chimes. Also the cardinal eventually elected as pope was the one (sadly I cannot remember the names as well as the plot) who was presiding over the conclave as none of the 4 preferred cardinals survived.
I liked the book as again there story is developed around facts and makes the fiction believable. Am going to read The Lost Symbol now.
