Do you read the book before seeing the movie version?
Everyone has an opinion on this subject. Many people insist on reading the book first to understand the author's perspective before seeing it interpreted by a director and actors.
Others prefer to be entertained by the story itself, not interested in the background or history of how the author created the book.
It can be fun to have a book and movie club in which everyone reads the same book and then watches the movie together. A discussion can follow, comparing and contrasting the differing viewpoints as presented by the mediums. The next time around, watch the movie first, then read the book, perhaps out loud to each other in weekly meetings.
You may find you prefer one way over another or just enjoy both the book and the movie.
