In the book that scene is worse. She chopped his feet off with an axe

Let's give Addie a round of applause for surviving Misery (1990) as her SECOND Stephen King horror movie adaptation after The Shining (1980)! 👏👏 Happy Wednesday. I hope to watch this movie either tonight, later on this coming weekend, or later on with my girlfriend.

Brandon Pierce

One of the scariest movies ever made.

Speaking of Kathy Bates, who plays Annie Wilkes in this movie, Margaret "Molly" Brown in Titanic (1997), & Miss Hannigan in The Wonderful World of Disney's Annie (1999), I suggest The Waterboy (1998) with Adam Sandler as Bobby Bouchet. In that Disney movie, Bates plays his mom, Helen "Mama" Bouchet. It will ALSO help you heal from being freaked out by her Oscar-winning performance in this movie. #TheWaterboyForAddieCounts

Happy Wednesday, Addie! 😊 As much as I love the "IT" movies, "Misery" is easily my top favorites from book-to-movie adaptations from Stephen King. Fun Fact: Kathy Bates won both a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for her performance in this movie in 1991. For more Kathy Bates I very highly recommend the 1991 "Fried Green Tomatoes". Definitely looking forward to watching this reaction later this evening. Have a great day today! 😊

I second Fried Green Tomatoes (1991). That movie and The Waterboy (1998), with Adam Sandler, should help heal the creepiness she felt from her during this movie. #MoreKathyBatesForAddieCounts

Classic, Love it. I'm ya number one fan. 😘🤪🤣

And another James Caan (RIP) movie that I also suggest to you is Thief (1981), produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and directed by Michael Mann. #Thief1981ForAddieCounts

Thats MR. Baldamort

Hey addie, will you be watching signs as well since it was very close to Misery in the poll?

And speaking of Rob Reiner, the director of this movie and The Princess Bride (1987), I also suggest Stand By Me (1986), another Stephen King film adaptation, When Harry Met Sally... (1989), with Billy Crystal & Meg Ryan, A Few Good Men (1992), with Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson, & Demi Moore, The American President (1995), with Michael Douglas & Annette Bening, The Story of Us (1999) with Bruce Willis & Michelle Pfeiffer, Alex & Emma (2003), with Kate Hudson & Luke Wilson, Rumor Has It... (2005), with Jennifer Aniston & Mark Ruffalo, The Bucket List (2007), also with Jack Nicholson, and Flipped (2010). #MoreRobReinerForAddieCounts

The 'hobbling' scene is a must for any movie reaction follower. I know you've previously seen James Caan as the dad in "Elf" as well as Sonny in the "Godfather" movies, but I'd also recommend "The Rain People," "The Gambler," and "Thief." And I know you're familiar with Rob Reiner from his directorial effort that is "The Princess Bride" as well as him playing Leonardo DiCaprio's dad in "The Wolf of Wall Street," but I'd also highly recommend "This Is Spinal Tap" (in which he both acts and directs), "The Sure Thing," "Stand by Me," and "When Harry Met Sally..."

And she used a blowtorch to cauterize the stumps after she chopped them off. That Stephen King... 🎃

I don't recall what happened to the sheriff. I read that novel barely out of high school, back when I was a horror geek. What she did to his feet stuck in my head for sure. lol

KingGoji94
>>151852272

I believe she did run him over. Also another thing. Annie's rant about cliffhangers is spot on

Byrd N. Hand
>>151853914

King himself has claimed "The Green Mile" is the most faithful film adaptation of any of his works, but I have to imagine this one is up there as well.

Alex Tan
>>151852272

Addie, if you want something REALLY scary, try the 2000 Extended Director's Cut of The Exorcist (1973), it'll be a lovely day when you watch that movie. #TheExorcistForAddieCounts

PrimadonnaKath

Finally someone else who was introduced to Kathy Bates through Annie! Although I'd say Misery is her greatest performance, I'll always see her as Miss Hannigan! XD

Steve Mercier

Hands down one of the best Stephen King adaptations..."Oh forgive me Paul for prattling away and making everything all oogy."

SR2 Prod.

Will we be getting a reaction to signs as well?

The late William Goldman, who adapted the Stephen King novel for the screenplay, wrote the scene as depicted in the novel. The director, Rob Reiner, changed the 'hobbling' scene and shot it. Goldman was furious but when he saw the test screening with an audience... Rob Reiner was right - what worked on the printed page would have immediately removed all sense of humanity from Annie Wilkes' character on the big screen. Goldman was an accomplished screenwriter and novelist. He wrote "The Princess Bride" novel as well as the screenplay for the Rob Reiner film. He wrote the original screenplay for "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid". Sometimes even Goldman couldn't predict how an audience would perceive a film scene.

Good call on rob. It's great in the book but in the movie it could have been too much

Well, it may be Addie's second 'horror' movie adaptation of Stephen King's works but she's already watched his Frank Darabont-directed adaptation of the novella, "The Shawshank Redemption".

Same here. I've also seen her in Around the World in 80 Days (2004) with Jackie Chan & Clint Eastwood's Richard Jewell (2019), as well as Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret (2023). Here's a fun fact, Kathy Bates & Victor Garber (Miss Hannigan & Mr. Warbucks in The Wonderful World of Disney's Annie (1999)) were also in Titanic (1997) as Margaret "Molly" Brown & Thomas Andrews.

I think I first noticed her in Primary Colors and she will break your heart in that movie. I also loved her in The Waterboy, Kathy Bates has the most range of any actor.

Doug

A fun part of the novel Misery is that occasionally you get to read some sections of the actual story Paul is typing and, sure enough, all the n's appear to be handwritten because Paul hand to pencil them all in.

Damien Lupo

As far as Stephen King adaptations to film or TV, this is in my top five. And put the hobbling scene aside, my favorite shot of the film is when she's talking about serials, and she gets more and more intense, as the camera slowly zooms in, until it is just her face shouting the words "He didn't jump out of the kaka-doo-de-car!" Another great moment, and I feel like this one must be a combination of acting and directing, is when it's raining and Kathy Bates is depressed. But she's not really sad-depressed, she's numb-depressed. Because when a character in a movie is portraying depression, it's usually just 'I'm sad'. She played a more nuanced version of manic depressive in this role. She said, deadpan "god. I love you, Paul". Her mood didn't shift. She's not sad in that scene, she's just... not feeling. great acting.

If you’d like some backstory for Annie Wilkes, the second season of Castle Rock explores her character a bit. It’s a rather uneven series. Some good moments and some pretty awful ones so I’m not sure it’s one you could watch for the channel. Still, I thought you might find it interesting

I saw this one in the theater, and the sound of the audience when she hobbled him was like nothing I had heard before. :D

Randy

..it's Spelled Missouri mkay?..

Thats MR. Baldamort

Not sure if Addie thought of this and didnt say it. This movie portrays the literal expression of "Misery loves company"
