The movie changes this part to a less graphic and extreme punishment than what she really does to him in the book. If you want to know, but you can probably guess, Wiki mentions it under trivia for the movie "Misery." Auria, that is also one of the most memorable scenes for me.

The part where she hammers his ankles put me on edge. Made my toes curled. Erika, I saw Misery and liked the movie. The part where she hammers his ankles put me on edge. Made my toes curled.

I prefer reality-based fiction like this story to a supernatural one. I'm not a huge King fan, but this was definitely one of my favorites. I think the movie was good, but the book is much better and not overly-descriptive and long like a lot of his work- I still cannot get through "It."

I've never read a King book but perhaps he'll agrue that he is representing a side of life. Revealing human flaws and strengths through storytelling. But again, I never read any of his books. And I never met him personally so he may not say any of those things. :-) LOL…good point.

So he's saying that stories reveal real life situations. While most of us hide what is really going on in our life, whether for our benefit or that of others, stories hold the mirror to the truth. At least that is my take. Diane, I believe the lie in this case is life. So he’s saying that stories reveal real life situations.
