I believe the movie was told very differently than the book because a movie director is entertaining a different audience than an author of a book. A director has different goals and thoughts to portray than the original book. The director is given certain artistic freedoms to help better connect with the audience and sometimes that makes the story change a little…
These are just a few example differences and similarities. There are many more, like any other book and movie. Read this book than see the movie to find out just how many more.…
Another difference that I noticed is concerning Curley's wife. In the book there is a scene where Lennie, Candy and Crooks are gathered in Crooks' room. After a while, Curley's wife emerges and the atmosphere becomes unpleasant. Crooks finds the courage to stand up against her, and when he does, she verbally breaks him down. In the movie this scene never takes place, and by eliminating this incident Curley's wife's destructive nature stays unrevealed.…
Though the movie and novel also have some differences. Huge roles are almost unrecognizable in the movie. Darry shoves Ponyboy in the movie. He slaps him hard on the back in the book. In the movie, there are kids that ask Dally for money.…
In the book Billy has 3 sisters but in the movie he only has 2 sisters. In the book when they went to the championship they had 4 nights while in the movie they only had 3 nights to hunt. They mention something about their grandma in the book but in the movie they don't mention her at all. When Billy goes to get his pups in the book he goes through a playground where he gets in a fight with some local boys.in the movie he doesn't go through the playground but he still gets in a fight with the local boys. Also, in the book when Billy gets his pups the sheriff of the town buys Billy a strawberry pop. there is so many things different in the book and the movie.…
There are some similarities between the book and the movie. For example, one way the book and movie are the same is that they both take place in the future. This means that…
Another difference between the book and the novel is Gene’s confrontation with Leper, in the novel Leper goes home after he is discharged from the army and confronts Gene there. In the movie version however, Leper flees to the woods outside Devon after he is discharged but is eventually spotted by Gene who follows him into the woods where the confrontation occurs. His fragile state after his experience in the army, was a huge point of interest for me in the book. The movie, I feel, was unable to capture his essence.…
The movie and book had the same date, setting, and title. They both talk about red and black letter days. The movie and book had mostly the same characters. They both had Dan doing bike races. In the movie and the book, Dan likes Stacey. They both had tornados in it. In the book, and the movie, Dan and Arthur are friends. In both, the movie and the book, Arthur has a lot of sisters and brothers and moved from California. In both, the movie and the book, when the tornado starts to destroy the house, Dan struggles to get Ryan to the basement. In the movie and the book, they hide in the basement and then get into the shower. In the movie and the book, so many things get destroyed, but no one died from the tornado. There were a lot of similarities between the book and…
There are some movies that are adapted from the novel such as Harry Potter, Da Vinci Code, Twilight Saga, The Hunger Games and Lagenda Budak Setan. What are the differences between watching a movie and reading a novel? There are some contrasts between the two actions. One of the differences is by watching a movie, you just need to sit and relax. It is very easy since you only need to watch it and understands it. Furthermore, you can watch the movie while doing something else such as eating or exercising. You do not really have to focus like to imagine how the atmosphere is in the movie at that time or how a person is walking down the streets. Lastly, you can avoid disbelief since it is a multi-sensory experience. On the other hand, by reading…
The next thing I’d notice was the young man actually walked into the old man's room. In the book he just bursts into his room and does the cruel deed to the old man. In the movie they just look at each other. But in the movie as they look at each other the young man also walks closer. This was another major thing they changed.…
Both the book and the movie are very different, they have lots of similarities and differences. The Setting, Plot and Characterisation are three parts that the book and movie can be compared.…
There isn't as many differences as there are similarities in the stories, but they are very noticeable, for example, in the book, Lennie is described as "big" and "dark around the eyes", but in the movie Lennie isn't fat and he is white so you can see his eyes clearly. To me, he looked pretty average except you can notice there is something wrong with him by the way he acted. There are many quotes in the book that aren't said in the movie. It's good to know that both stories aren't "exactly" the same. Then, if you read or watch one, you wouldn't have to read or watch the other. Unless you are supposed to be comparing or contrasting each, that's a different story!…
The differences in the movie from the novel are a big part of putting together the two stories. For instance Iva Archer to me was a bigger part of the book then she was in the movie. In the book she caused insufficient problems…
These texts both somewhat follow the stories of characters seeking what they want in life and the writers both show what they believe to be ‘the good life’, even if they are shown in different ways. At the start of Animal Farm the animal begin their quest for the good life by rebelling against their…
Animal farm was short but definitely not sweet. I watched the movie when I was six years old and I found it frightening. I liked that I could learn from the mistakes that the animals made, and I even enjoyed the book despite my past experience with the story.…
