What are some movies better than the books they were based off of?

I usually will buy the book if the movie is good, because--you know--the cliche is that the book is always better than the movie.

But, not always.

Here is my list of movies better than the books they were based off of:

The Last Temptation of Christ, Bringing Out The Dead, Forest Gump, American Assassin, Sideways, Million Dollar Baby, The Shawshank Redemption, The Godfather

What are some others?
