All the Time (Time Enough at Last)

All the Time (Time Enough at Last) is the 8th episode of the 1st season of the Twilight Zone. It was aired on 1959 and was adapted by the short story written by Marilyn Venable.

 It tells the story of a man named Henry Bemis, a bank teller whose passion was reading book but was shunned by a lot of people, including his boss and his wife. What they didn't know was that the thing that the despised about him was also the thing that saved him.

If I could create my own adaptation of the story, I wouldn't change it, but I would create a different ending. After years of living alone, and when he lost the will to live, he would meet a kid who also survived the apocalypse. Instead of committing suicide, he celebrated because he finally have another person to live with. Also, after telling his story to the kid, the kid would offer to read to him everyday but he, in turn, would take care of the kid.
