Compare And Contrast Hatchet And Cry In The Wild
Hatchet & Cry in the Wild

Hatchet did a better with foreshadowing than Cry in the Wild.The movie was horrible. I saw his BUTT. In the survival pack there was some stuff that was missing in the it. In the book,the pilot didn’t tell him were the survival pack was. In the movie his mom saw that he saw her having an affair that in the book they was in the station wagon getting their freak on too much.The lake in the movie was not L- shaped it was like an oval and he does not try to hide in the boulder.The boy in the movie is so weird like he was talking to himself.Brian did not stab a bear then try to feed his cub after the fact and blood do not squirt out it drips.His mom did not have an affair in the bushes or trees in the book she had an affair

    “The Adventure of the Speckled Band by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, a mystery story, was more interesting than its movie version because it has more details of the characters and places, that give you a better understanding of the story. In the book there are more details about the places that the characters go, so that helps you to get a better picture of what is going on. For example in the book It describes Stoke Moran as a decrepit ,old ,rundown estate, but in the movie the mansion is in pretty good condition the grounds are beautiful. Whereas in comparison the grounds in the book are dying and brown, so clearly the book has more detail about the places then the movie simply because it's longer and you can really picture what it looks like…

    The first noticeable major difference is how the story is told. In the novel, Jon Krakauer writes from his own point of view, providing his own input and opinions on McCandless, while the film is told in his sister’s point of view; she is scarcely mentioned in the novel, aside from the fact that Chris was very fond of her. The shift in narrators in a way limits the amount of information that can be delivered to the audience. Though the narration by Chris’s sister adds a more…

    When I read the book and saw the movie I found many differences between the events in the book Hatchet and the events in the movie A Cry in the Wild. In the book when the plane crashed in the wilderness the rescue plane came after he founded food, made fire, and a shelter to live. When the rescue plane came Brian ran to make more fire to send signals in the sky so they could see him. In the movie the rescue plane came the same day as the plane crashed and he didn’t have fire or made a shelter to live so he screamed loudly so they could hear him or see him but the plane turned away. In this event I found significant difference and little similarities between “Hatchet” and “A Cry in the Wild”…

    One of the biggest differences I saw between the two was the arrangement of the story. Dubus’ written version starts out in the middle at Frank’s funeral and the movie starts the story from the beginning with Frank and his lover Mary Ann (Natalie) running in a field. The film gives you more of a sense of the characters, their emotions, and the relationships they share with one another, while the written story gives you the view from Matt’s perspective only. The movie showed a lot more of the background details such as: the father-son bond between Matt and Frank, and the loving bond between Frank and Mary Ann. The story proceeded to show more of Matt’s feelings and internal thoughts on a different level then the film, which displayed very little interaction between him and his son in their lifetime. “It seemed to Matt that from the time Mary Ann called weeping to tell him until now, a Saturday night in september, sitting in the car with Willis, parked beside Strout’s car, waiting for the bar to close, that he had not so much moved through his life as wandered through it, his spirit like a dazed body bumping into furniture and corners. He had always been a fearful father; when his children were young. at the start of each summer he though of them drowning in a pond or the sea, and he was relieved when he came home in the evening and they were there; usually that relief was his only acknowledgment of his fear, which he never spoke of , and which he controlled within his heart” (100). Another difference that made the movie more personal was by not having…

    Life is a cruel mistress. This can not be better displayed than by The Scream by Edvard Munch and The Crucible by Arthur Miller. Both pieces of art represent the idea of Depression, Death, and Anger. This is symbolised by the bloody, orange sunrise; The Dark pastel colors also symbolize depression, with a touch anger contributed by the red, orange mix. The Scream gives off a very eerie tone of death and depression. The Crucible has many lesson throughout the book with these same ideas. During the Crucible John and Rebecca were hung during an early morning sunrise. Narration, “The final drumroll crashes, then heightens violently. Hale weeps in frantic prayer, and the new sun is pouring in upon her face, and the drums rattle like bones in the…

    Whenever you read a book and then go watch the movie, most of the time they don’t follow the same events in the same order. Just like in the myth “Perseus” and the movie, Clash of the Titans, the event are not all the same and some of the causes of the events are not the same either. Different things happen in the movies that are not even close to some of the things in the myth. These differences can either make the story better or just make it less interesting.…
