On this day, November 20, 1987, Flowers in the Attic premiered in theaters. Directed by Jeffrey Bloom and based on V.C. Andrews’ controversial novel, the film brought the dark and twisted tale of the Dollanganger children to the big screen.

Starring Victoria Tennant, Kristy Swanson, and Louise Fletcher, the movie earned $15.1 million at the box office and sparked debates among fans due to significant departures from the book, including a changed ending.

Have you seen Flowers in the Attic? Do you think it did justice to V.C. Andrews’ novel?
