Misery
By William Goldman
Based on Stephen King’s novel, this thriller follows successful romance novelist Paul Sheldon, who is rescued from a car crash by his “number one fan,” Annie Wilkes, and wakes up captive in her secluded home. While Paul is convalescing, Annie reads his latest book and becomes enraged when she discovers the author has killed off her favorite character, Misery Chastain. Unwilling to let him leave, the irate Annie forces him to start a new Misery novel, and Paul quickly realizes he is writing as if his life depends on it, and it does.
