Baz Luhrmann isn’t the first person to adapt The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov for film.

He’s also not the first person to encounter some spooky-seeming obstacles to actually executing the project.

Literary Hub’s Emily Temple listened to a radio show that invited fans of the book to discuss its particular magic.

Luhrmann and the show host talked about the ill omens that manifested themselves during previous adaptations and the chills Luhrmann himself has experienced; you can read a few highlights on Lit Hub or listen to the complete show.
