falling on Cedars did a superb job in staying with
the plot of the book without changing it much,

plot to work with in the first place. I noticed
that the scenes were significantly shortened in
the movie compared to the book, but that was just
due to the directors time restraints. The director
also played around with the order of the plot too

s social patterns and trace the development of our
own human culture. Primates are like a mirror into
