Answer by  Daniell (160)

As of 2010, there have not been any major movie adaptations of One Hundred Years of Solitude. This is probably a result of the complexity of the novel, featuring many settings and characters interacting in different times. Japanese director Shuji Terayama has staged a play and directed a movie loosely based on the book.

The book by Gabriel García Márquez was never made into a movie. His work is typical of the literature of Latin America in that it is sweeping and dramatic, while at the same time integrating elements of the mystical and magic throughout in the way of dreams, spirits and longings. A few of his other books have made into films.

I cannot find a movie, just some plays that are slightly related. However, one of the main themes of that book is magical realism, and that is why the author Marquez won the Pulitzer prize. The wiki entry for it has a good overview of the book and main characters and plot line.

Yes. Dr. Zhivago. This movie shows Russia at the beginning of the Bolshevik Revolution. As revolution takes place, the protagonist must choose between his own morals and the morals of the mob. One Hundred Years of Solitude here would be that Dr. Zhivago gets no advice from friends.
