Anyone know a writer that is similar to a movie director(Scorceses,Tarentino)?

[platinumike]

this is for an English paper. I have to either compare a book and a movie(cant be the same story) or a movie director and an author. I really don't know many authors since I don't read much but I'd say tarentino or Scorsese are the directors im most familiar with. Ya i know, do my own homework,etc. Im just looking for a few ideas.Thanks guys.

How about a comparison of how Scorceses' use of suspense differs from an author, such as John Grisham or Michael Crichton. Maybe talk about type of narrator (limited vs. omnipotent) or pacing (plot progresses throughout vs. big twist at the end).

Just something to go from.
