Lord of the Flies (spoiler alert)

Post by otcboy »

Watched the BBC version currently on Netflix. Four episodes.

One major change is that we find out Piggy's real name - and like Chekhov's gun, it is used later.

Also, Piggy doesn't end up dying after getting hit by a boulder and going over a cliff. It's more of a fever from an infection and dies in Ralph's arms. And Ralph buries him.

So, there are some major liberties taken.

It was worth the watch.
