Stephen Chbosky is that rarity: a popular novelist who directed the screen version of his best-selling book, The Perks of Being a Wallflower. He has now followed that success with a beautiful adaptation of R.J. Palacio\\u2019s Wonder. It won\\u2019t take long to figure out why he\\u2019s done so well: his enthusiasm is palpable, whether he\\u2019s talking about the moviemaking process or naming some of his favorite films for Leonard and Jessie.
