The Dollar Baby: Reviews & Interviews (2022) - The Dollar Baby

Discover Stephen King stories you've never heard of, adapted by students and emerging artists. In this book, I review 115 Dollar Babies and interview 47 filmmakers involved with them. The term "Dollar Deal" refers to an arrangement between King and them. For a dollar, they were granted permission to adapt one of his short stories, novellas, or poems. Dollar Babies cannot be shown publicly outside of festivals.
In this book, I describe my privileged experience in screening them, how I felt, what I saw, and the differences and similarities between each version of a given adaptation. I got to know several screenwriters, directors, and producers. I heard their stories and their opinion about the Dollar Deal, and I documented it all. Long days and pleasant nights!
