    Has an author ever directed a movie based on their own book?

    I'm honestly curious. Has an author of a book also acted as the director of that book's film adaptation? Could you give me some examples?

    Searching for the name of a novel from the perspective of God by an Italian author?

    I can't remember the name to save my life! I also know that it was a twentieth century text and that it's chronicled from the beginning of the universe to the end of our more modern type. Any ideas would be great!
