I find that, more often than not, the real story is just as compelling as the invented one. Sure, there may not be endless action or explosions, but it’s usually just as entertaining—if not more so. And, again, if you have to change the story that much, at that point, you’re telling a different story.

I can agree with this. It’s an issue of degrees.
