"When Todd and I began collaborating on the script, we were hoping to make something new out of the material, rather than simply reproducing the book onto film," says Perrotta.
"Kada smo Todd i ja započeli surađivati na scenariju, nadali smo se da ćemo napraviti nešto novo iz materijala, a ne samo reproducirati knjigu u film", izjavio je Perrotta.
