Sourdoughs Wrote:I'm unclear as to the relation of these three works, and how the story "Good Friday" comes into play. Would/could someone lay out how they're related?
I've read the novell from 1990, have seen the DVD, haven't read the novel, and don't remember reading "Good Friday" if I did.
I did search and read previous posts on this topic but couldn't get it all straight in my head, I guess.
Thanks!

Kenji Wrote:Okay, Sourdoughs. "Good Friday" is selected one scene from "Midnight Mass".
DVD is based on "Midnight Mass", but story and details are completely different. Actually, Sister Carole and Bernadette were not characters in DVD. That was pointless movie for Midnight Mass fan.
APhew Wrote:The 2004 novel "Midnight Mass" is actually the combination of a novella, two short stories, and a splash of awesomeness to complete the story. The core novella Midnight Mass was first published by Axolotl Press back in 1990. The two short stories are: The Lords Work (published in 1992), and Good Friday (published in 1999).
The movie is only loosely based on the original novella and not the full fledged novel. They took many liberties with the story, but overall I thought they did a decent job with budget they had.
