Talk:Bee Season

the novel and collaboration

OK, I'll collaborate; please let us call this article Bee Season (film) and create a separate article for the book. If there's no objection I'll do it in the next few days. Cheers, Her Pegship 18:45, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

• Object Plenty of films based on novels are on the same page if there is not yet much seperate information on the book. If you are planning on filling out Bee Season after splitting off Bee Season (film) then go right ahead, but otherwise there isn't really a point. Staxringold 13:47, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
• Do it I've read the book, but not seen the film, and from the synopsis here they sound very different, at least at the end. Do it, and I will gladly improve the book article. Daniel (☎) 20:48, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Done, and thanks. Her Pegship 13:43, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Improvements needed

Here are some areas for expansion:

1. - The plot summary could be extended. While articles should not rely on a plot summary, this one is too brief and leaves out a number of important developments (e.g., Aaron's joining the Hare Krishna).
2. - The multiple references to Kabbalism could be detailed and explored.
3. - The character list could be expanded beyond each person's role in the family.

I also believe that the section on differences should be confined to the article on the movie, or at least be changed in tone so that the referent is the book, not the movie. (For example, the sentence "Also Chali, the woman who introduces Aaron to the Hare Krishna religion in the movie, is actually a man in the book" would be reworded to say "Chali, the character who introduces Aaron to the Hare Krishna religion, is portrayed as a woman in the film version.") -- Merope ^Talk 22:15, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

I disagree with the description

The father is Jewish and interested in Kabbalah, but that wouldn't make it a Kabbalist family.
