Book Vs. Movie: Coyote Ugly (2000 film vs 1997 GQ Story)
Book Vs. Movie: Coyote Ugly (2000 film vs 1997 GQ Story)Today, we are joined by special guest co-host, Sonia Mansfield of the “What a Creep” podcast! Neither of us has ever read anything by Elizabeth “Eat-Pray-Love” Gilbert until now. Her 1997 story for GQ Magazine, “The Muse of the Coyote Ugly Saloon” launched the 2000 film, which, in turn, launched an international bar franchise.In this episode, we discuss:
- Elizabeth Gilbert’s stellar career trajectory (and did she really plot to murder her girlfriend?)
- The differences between the book and the movie
- The short, short distance between New York City and South Amboy, New Jersey
- How humans need water to live
