Episode 203 is another instalment in our Page to Screen series. This time we read Clockers by Richard Price and watched the Spike Lee film adaptation of the same name.
We loved how the book and the film each have their own distinct vibe and definitely need to watch more Spike Lee films. (And maybe rewatch The Wire?)
Show Notes
Richard Price has also written screenplays, including The Wire, The Deuce, and the Martin Scorsese film, The Color of Money, for which he received an Oscar nomination for Best Adapted Screenplay.
This was Mekhi Phifer's first film, and he got the part through an open casting call.
In our next episode, we'll be talking about What Moves the Dead by T Kingfisher.
Read along with our next book club pick, the graphic novel adaptation of The Dream Thieves by Maggie Steifvater.
