100 Films Based on Novels and Plays

Starting with the original 1960 Hitchcock version of "Psycho" (the image below is of the shower scene, the film is based on a novel), we list 100 random films that are based on either films or novels. We were going to separate the two (films based on novels, films based on plays) but then we remembered "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" was a novel, then a play, then finally a movie! As always, enjoy!!!!
