Comparing Phantom Of The Opera And The Beauty And The Beast
If I were to compare Phantom of the Opera to another story, that would be, the story, The Beauty and the Beast, because the main character in two stories share the same attributes. Thus, Belle and Christine both find fascination about darkness. Both are ambitious, in a good way. They love things which are mysterious; they learn to see beauty behind ugliness. They’re both weak in a sense that they can’t control their feelings toward their love ones. Both of them are prisoners of love.
The lads, Raoul and Gaston, are also similar in a sense that they are handsome and wealthy. They are willing to give everything to the girl they love. Meanwhile, Phantom and The Beast, are just the same. They both have experienced something horrible in their

    Comparing Thomas Kinkade's Beauty And The Beast

    Many years ago I saw a copy of Thomas Kinkade’s painting of Beauty and the Beast. He was known as The Painter of Light, and did several paintings especially for Disney. As soon as I saw it, I fell in love. Belle has always been my favorite Disney princess, because I have always thought that we were similar. We both love to read, are different from the others around us, have brown hair, and tend to always look on the bright side of things. Every time I look at this picture I feel at peace, and am happy.…

    A comparison and analysis of Rosencratz and Guildenstern in "Hamlet" to Timon and Pumbaa in "Lion King"

    When taking a close look at the Disney movie "The Lion King", any one who has studied "Hamlet" can see the parallels between the two. The simple plot, a son's revenge for his father's death, is the basis for both stories. Simba bears many resemblances to Hamlet. Scar is, in many ways, like Claudius. Besides the likenesses between main characters, there are also similarities between secondary characters as well.…

    Comparing 'And The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow'

    “The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow” is a short story that was written by Washington Irving in 1820 and then was later on turned into a movie in 1999 by Tim Burton. The short story “Legend Of Sleepy Hollow” is based on a well-known legend of the headless horseman in the small town of sleepy hollow. This short story tells the tale of the alleged disappearance of the main character, Ichabod Crane. This story, leaves you guessing as to what is the truth about Ichabod Crane's disappearance? While in the movie, it is more of a Hollywood version of Irving’s original story. As the movie begins in New York and introduces Ichabod crane a detective, who has his own vision of how to “solve” crimes. Ichabod Crane is then sent to the small town of Sleepy Hollow to solve the three murder cases of the townspeople. Although the movie is fairly similar to the short story , the movie ends up taking a twist that leads the ending in a different direction from the original story.…

    comparing and contrast cinderella

    Everyone knows the story of Cinderella, the girl who finds her prince with the help of a magical fairy god-mother, transforming her previously horrible life to a fabulous depiction of every little girls dream. Generations of children around the world have heard the story Cinderella countless times, however most people are unaware of the multiple versions of this legend. The European version of Cinderella ,“Aschenputtel” written by the Grimm Brothers consists of the female protagonist being treated as a servant, yet somehow manages to leave her cruel family behind for her Prince whom she lives happily ever after with. Another version of Cinderella is the Native American tale “The Algonquin Cinderella”, where the female protagonist is also mistreated by her family, however she is fortunate enough to “find” her own prince in her village. Although both stories present similar morals, both vary in details such as characters, settings,and use of magic.…

    Comparison: Romeo and Juliet vs. West Side Story

    “Westside Story” and “Romeo and Juliet” are both inspiring stories about two star-crossed lovers whose love is forbidden because of hatred between their groups, which leads to inevitable death.

    Comparison of “the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe” Book to Movie

    What I love about the The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe (TLWW) is its truly beautiful and enchanting story containing a Christian allegory. The movie falters in those moments where it robs the story of its purity and truth. As a child reading the story, or having it read to you, you are taken from an ordinary world into an extraordinary one. As Lewis wrote in his essay “On Three Ways of Writing for Children” the reader of a story like TLWW “does not despise real woods because he has read of enchanted woods: the reading makes all real woods a little enchanted.”…

    Romeo &Juliet vs. West Side Story

    What would Romeo and Juliet be like if Juliet hadn't died? What if Paris killed Romeo, instead of vice versa? What if instead of occurring several centuries ago, it took place on the streets of New York City during the 1950s, with a bunch of fresh-faced youths posing as street toughs and dancing and singing their hearts out? Well, just take a look at West Side Story, and you will have your answers. It is impossible for anyone familiar with both texts to not note the obvious major similarities between the two plays. From the opening scenes in both, up through the rumble in West Side Story/death of Mercutio in Romeo and Juliet, the plays mirror each other (Poelstra). It isn't until the last part of West Side Story, where Tony, our modern-day Romeo, dies and Maria, Tony's Juliet, doesn't (unlike the two star-crossed lovers of Shakespeare's work), that the major difference between the two works becomes apparent.…

    Night And Life Is Beautiful Analysis

    One point of similarities and differences would be the characters and the relationships that the characters have in both stories, Night and Life is Beautiful. For example, there is a father-son relationship in each of the stories. In Night, the father, Shlomo, and the son, Elie, have a very special bond of love and appreciation toward one another, just like Joshua and Guido do to each other in Life is Beautiful. However, the difference between the two would be that at around the end of the book of Night, Elie's feelings toward his father would change at one period in the story. The reader notices the change when he says “free at last!” (Wiesel 112), yet this change did not happen to Joshua and Guido in Life is Beautiful. By Elie’s change of feeling toward his beloved father, this could change how the reader feels about him whether it is a positive…

    Comparing Taming Of The Shrew And A Midsummers Night Dream

    In Shakespeare’s comedies The Taming of the Shrew and A Midsummers Night Dream, both fathers can be overlooked due to their few occurrences, but are pivotal to the storyline. In the fathers’ pursuits to find favorable suitors for their daughters, their inattentiveness leads to the daughters choosing the men they want to marry. Bianca’s father, Baptista in The Taming of the Shrew is consumed with finding a suitor for his eldest daughter Katherine before Bianca, distracting him from Bianca’s communication with Lucentio, a man who wants to marry her, but is disguised as a tutor named Cambio, while Lucentio’s servant, Tranio pretends to be him. Baptista does not pay much attention to what Bianca is doing because she appeared to be an obedient daughter compared to her…

    Cinderella Comparison Essay

    There are many versions to the famous fairy tale Cinderella. Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm’s German version of Cinderella, “Aschenputtel,” is a household story of a young girl named Cinderella who eventually marries a prince. This specific version of Cinderella gave birth to the Walt Disney version of Cinderella that most Americans know today. However the stories are very different. The Grimm brothers’ version is much darker and gory then the classic American version. Small differences like this shed a different light on Cinderella and her journey to a “happy” ending.…
