Comparison Of All Summer In A Day And If Only We Had Taller Been
In both “All Summer In A Day” and “IF Only We Had Taller Been,” we learn that if you are really motivated to do something important you can do things you wouldn’t even think of and it could hurt you or others in a negative way or you can help others in a positive way. Overall the theme of this story is you can do stuff you wouldn’t think of if you have a special goal. In the short story “All Summer In A Day” Margot has seen the sun before and she remembered it very clearly. The kids on planet Venus hated her for this because she stood out from all of the kids. The scientists had said that the sun was going to come out for one hour in a whole day. The kids were very excited for the sun to come out because on Venus it is always raining terribly.

    Have you ever felt like you are were alone, and nobody is listening to what you have to say? These are the feelings Margot was expressing. She was in a classroom, having a happy day about to see the sun, and then she was turned on, trapped in a closet. The short story and movie, “All Summer in a Day,” by Ray Bradbury and Ed Kaplan is a story of a child, living on Venus, named Margot that wishes she would see the sun again. Every seven/nine years it would come out, and Margot wasn't able to experience it, since she was trapped inside the closet. This was because Will was jealous of how she was able to see it when she was very little. Both stories are made off of the same idea, but are drastically different. Yes, there may be some similarities, but you see that there are plenty of differences. This is shown from all of the extra footage Ed Kaplan needed to add in. Such as in the ending, when it doesn't just show Margot leaving the closet like in the short story, but all of the kids feel so bad they gave her the flowers that they grabbed.…

    “In the heat of the night” is a novel written by John Ball who is a famous detective novel. In this essay I will discuss about the differences between the book and the film of “In the heat of the night”. The book gives you more details about what is happening and it is more interesting. The film doesn’t give as much details as the book does, the film changes some things and it makes it less interesting. In the book the story is taking place in Wells. In the film the story is taking place in Sparta. In the book “Virgil Tibbs” is from Pasadena CA, in the film “Virgil” is from Pasadena PA (north). In the book the body is of Enrico Mantoli and in the film the body is of Colbert. In the book when Gillespie asks Virgil if he can look at the body he says “yes”.
