I have recently read the book “The Westing Game” and watched the movie “Get a Clue,” and I have found some similarities and differences. The movie was told in Turtle’s point of view, but the book was in a 3rd person point of view. There were characters in “The Westing Game” that were not in “Get a Clue.” The way the solution to The Westing Game was found in “The Westing Game” was different than in “Get a Clue.”

    A film that explores the same topic and a slightly similar story to The Natural is “The Perfect Game.” While they both deal with the topic of Baseball and the expression of teams, they differ through how the stories begin and how The Perfect Game emphasizes more on just baseball. Amazingly enough, both stories begin with a character that already has a pre-interest or talent for Baseball. In The Natural, Roy, the main character, has a “Natural” skill of playing baseball while in The Perfect Game, the main character, Cesar, was a coach in the professional league before being resigned. The beginning of The Natural is much more dramatic as the reader is introduced to a character named Sam that Roy is friends with, after which is he killed soon…

"Mirage" thought Rainsford but it was no mirage, he found when he opened the tall spiked iron gate. The stone steps were real enough; the stone steps were real enough; the massive door with a leering gargoyle for a knocker was real enough; yet it hung in all unreality" (Connell ). This quote shows how surprised he is when he finds a mansion in the middle of the island not just any island though its ship-trap island in the middle of the ocean. The only way out for Rainsford "one of the main characters in "the Most Dangerous Game" is a boat. But the setting is also different. For example High Noon is in the old west and it's in the desert.
