>>23328506No, it's more like a film can elevate a mediocre story into a great one. It's an improvement on the material.

>>23328506A recurring thing with film is elevating slop into masterpieces. It’s what is awesome about it. The Shining movie had no business being as good as it was, but Kubrick elevated it. He made every book he adapted better except the actual masterpiece, Lolita.
