Speaking of which, I just realized that perhaps a book slapper
should have been present during the filming of Children of Men.
Apparently, a new character was introduced and the director,
Alphonse Cuaron made many changes. Below are some comments that
I agree with from an article I read:
[1] The reason why Males are infertile is because James wants
to show that this new future is a female orientated one. In the
film Cuaron makes women infertile - inexcusable in my opinion
and missing the point of the title.
[2] The book does not focus a road trip, it essentially is a
political thriller - the road trip itself is minimal. Cuaron
makes the road trip the focal point. Again this is missing the
point.
[3] Cuaron scraps the religious elements of the book. As the
title is part of the baptismal creed and an ironic statement on
future generations. Since is not included in the film then,
again, the whole title loses it's meaning.
On the plus side perhaps are these:
[o] Cuaron's version is grittier.
[o] Cuaron turned euthanasia into a branded form of self
suicide.
