I DO NOT recommend the 2020 version of The Stand. The direction and editing have turned Stephen King’s novel into a disjointed, fragmented, out of sequence movie that can make no sense to anyone who has not read the book. The movie is difficult to make sense of if you have read the book, which I have, because the editing jumps from one part of the story to another in a way that makes no sense. My recommendation is to edit it again and put the storyline into a comprehensible order. Each sequence of the movie is, in itself, superb. The cast and the casting are excellent and accurate. I am disappointed because I was really looking forward to the movie. Instead of wasting my time watching the movie, I will reread the book, which I love.
