Field of Dreams Movie Review

Field of Dreams is based on the book "Shoeless Joe" by W. P. Kinsella. I believe that the film was an effective adaptation of the book. Even though there were some changes made in the film, the main and important parts were still a part of the film and they both gave off the same message. One change that was made was the author that Ray was looking for in the book was J. D. Salinger and he was white. In the book, he was African American and his name was Terrance Man. Another change that was made was Ray's wife in the film wasn't as supportive of what he needed to do as she was in the book.
