| ''[[Naked Lunch]]'' ||''Kafka'' ||Two 1991 movies that are centered around the works of two renowned but vastly different authors, [[William S. Burroughs]] and [[Franz Kafka]] respectively. Although the title of ''Naked Lunch'' implies otherwise (it probably being Burroughs' most (in)famous novel), neither movie is an adaptation of any single piece of their work, but focus on the themes present in them to create a single allegorical tale of their entire careers, with [[Author Avatar|fictionalized versions of the authors themselves as the protagonist]]. || ''Naked Lunch'' was directed by the Canadian [[Body Horror]] director [[David Cronenberg]], Kafka by the then-up-and-coming [[Steven Soderbergh]], best known for ''[[Ocean's Eleven]]'' and ''[[Traffic]]''. Both movies starred Ian Holm for some reason. || ''Kafka'' beat ''[[Naked Lunch]]'' to the punch by being released a little over a month earlier, but ''[[Naked Lunch]]'' is much more widely remembered nowadays.
