Differences Between To Kill A Mockingbird Book And Movie
Have you read the book To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee? I have read parts of the book, and after reading the book and watching the film, there were a few similarities and differences between the book and the film. Some similarities and difference come from the setting, conflict, and character. Both the book and film do have differences, however they do have similarities between the both. The conflict between the book and film both have similarities and differences. Such as they both are similar in a way that in chapter 10 how there was dog, the dog in the book and film had rabies. Rabies is a deadly virus spread to people from the saliva of infected animals. As reported by the book To Kill A Mockingbird on page 123 it states that “Mr.
Finch! She shouted. This is cal. I swear to God there’s a mad dog down the street a piece.” This shows that in the book the dog had rabies. Moreover in the film it had the exact same thing, a dog filled with the disease coming towards Calpurnia and the kids. Although they both had similarities, a difference between the book and film were that in the book as Calpurnia saw the dog, she warned all her neighbors. According to the book To Kill A Mockingbird on page 124 it states that “Calpurnia’s message had been received by the neighborhood.” This proves that in the book Calpurnia had called her neighbors about the mad dog and to pass along the message to everyone else. However in the film it absolutely skipped this part, causing difference between the book and film.
In conclusion, as I watched the film and read the book, I realized that there were a few parts in the book that was not presented in the film. Some things were the fact that the book had Calpurnia warning her neighbors. Unlike the film which did not include this scene that I could picture in my head myself. However within all of this differences between the two, the similarity was that the dog had the same type of illness. Despite the fact that both the book and film had differences, they were still similar in many ways.
