I was just browsing "stuff" and foud out that the movie "Three Days of the Condor" is based on the book "Six days of the Condor".

It seems that it was too long to make a movie spanning six days of action and suspense.

Can you think of any other movies which would benefit from similar treatment?

Lets start with "The Magnificent Three-and-a-Half" or possibly "The Slightly Soiled Six"
