It’s said that you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but both readers and publishers are savvy enough to know that cover design speaks volumes about what’s inside. From the explosive graphics of pulp fiction to the attention-grabbing dust jackets of clothbound copies, cover design visually links to specific genres or series. For designer Matt Stevens, a love for the aesthetics of shelf-worn pocket paperbacks and a passion for movies spurs the ongoing series Good Movies as Old Books.

It's often said that the book is better than the movie, but this sort of turns that saying on it's head. Is the movie better that the book (cover)?
