"I think it's always good for the author to stay a good cattle prod's distance from the actual moviemaking" said by Carl Hiaasen means-
- One must have observed that due to time and imagination restraints, a movie adaptation of a book cannot include every description and chapter in the book.
- A book is way more elaborate and full of words to help one frame a mental image of the scenario as compared to a movie.
- A movie is for mass entertainment and aims at disseminating the message and gist of the book and the actual book is only for selective readers who want to palate the writer's mind and heart in its entirety.
- Therefore, the writer may not exactly be on board with the adaptation of his work due to editing, poor representation of his idea and selective production and depiction.
- Hence, the line said by Carl Hiaasen
