The book is so much better and gets so much more into why the car is the
way she is and the personalities of the characters, the movie is only really
good for the visuals of the Plymouth, the book ruined the movie for me.

Christine)

white cars here)

gs like it is a four door,
has locking buttons on the belt, just to mention a few. Christine even makes
house calls and goes to Darnell's house to murder him. I am recalling
my read from about 15 years ago. Mr. King did not hire a
technical expert to review the book before publishing...but all anyone cares
about is the movie...the book is very different from the screen
adaptation. Marv
