One adaptation I thought they did a really good job with is Peter S.
Beagle's "The Last Unicorn". Most of the dialogue is straight out
of the book, and only a few points were left out (rare in an
adaptation). The animation isn't all that hot, but it follow the
original novel pretty faithfully. Now, if we could only get that
quality of faithfulness with the animation of "The Secret of NIMH"
(which really gutted the original story, for the worse, I think)!
