In a Lonely Place / int_3f45f1e6	type	Adaptational Heroism
In a Lonely Place / int_3f45f1e6	comment	Adaptational Heroism: In the movie Dixon Steele, though having an unpredictable and violent temper, is only accused of being a murderer while in the book he is a serial killer and rapist. Ray changed this because he wanted Dixon and his psychological issues to have broader appeal and tone down the Insane Equals Violent nature of the original.
