I wouldn't say a fault per-say. It's probably just harder for someone with ADD to focus on the same thing for so long. It's likely a good thing to be so descriptive, especially when adapting to a movie. The whole thing is written out RIGHT THERE, there's no excuse for getting everything so wrong! Unlike in a book where you have to take a lot of time to read all the details, movies have the benefit of showing everything in one frame. You experience the environment as the characters interact with it, saving time that King dedicates so much of in written words. The book is certainly giving me some more respect for King because of that.
