Differences Between To Kill A Mockingbird Movie And Book
The book and the movie were way different. The characters were different than what they described in the book. Like how the cuninghams boy had cooties. Tom’s arm was suppose to be short but it is the same length in the movie. One of the additions of the movie was Bob came to the Finches car when Atticus was talking to Mrs. Robinson and he was scaring Jem. Mr, Underwood was in his shop with his gun to protect Atticus so the mob did not hurt him. Miss. Maudie's house did not catch on fire. Atticus did not bring a lamp with him to the jail. Those are so of the deletion of the book and the movie. In the book scout had a good relationship with Cal but in the movie she did not. They both have the same themes. “Don’t judge someone if you have not

    Movies and books are always different; in a movie you can show multiple characters, and in most books you're stuck in one character's narrative. For instance in the book The Giver the character Fiona doesn’t care about Jonas as deeply as she does in the movie. In the movie she stops her injections, and she starts to love Jonas. However in the book she only “enjoys having Jonas’s company”. In the movie she also helps Jonas steal Gabe before he is killed, and she is put in the community jail for helping him. Before she is going to be released she talks about how she has felt things. That she knows what it is like to truly feel, and in the book she isn’t this unorthodox.…

    In most cases when there are two versions of something we can find differences and similarities, such as when a book is made into a movie. An example of this is the book To Kill A Mockingbird which was made into a movie, these two versions are very different but portray the same story. The movie does a good job in presenting the main points of the book but overall the film and the novel are dissimilar more than they are alike. The three main differences are the alterations of major scenes, the absence of characters and the lack of details illustrated in the book.…

    Neither the novel nor film version of To Kill A Mockingbird is superior to the other, just different. In the book you delve more into the separate characters while in the film you see the relationships in action. The book gives you a broader view of everything, but at the same time the movie points out everything that seems important. Lastly, the novel shows Scout as a girl caught in the middle, when the movie seems to paint Scout as a girl without a inkling of what is going on.…

    These two ways were some of the many ways that I notice the book and the movie were different. Mrs. Dubose seemed to show Atticus’s side of punishment, but it does not really show Mrs. Dubose in the movie. Also with telling the book from Scout’s point of view compared to telling from Jem’s point of view in the movie. These were some of the biggest differences that was able to notice between the movie and the…

    The characters in the book Of Mice And Men and in the movie seemed very real and true to the characters that they are supposed to be. You have Lennie who is some what disabled but loves to pets things that are soft and in the movie remains exactly as the reader encounters him. There's George who takes care of Lennie and is very kind and loyal to lennie. He then eventually met slim and realized they were kinda the same and soon became close to him. I think that the filmers did a great job making the movie, especially that they have made it to where it almost says and does everything in the book.…

    There are many different changes between the movie “Fahrenheit 451” and the book. The movie had very little similarities to the book. Most of the differences had a big influence on the story and completely changed it. One of the major changes in the movie was that Faber wasn’t in it. Faber played a very important role in Montag's life. He helped Montag with his development and made him understand books more. He helped make Montag think for himself. Clarisse took over the role of Faber in the movie, but she didn’t help him as much as Faber did in the book. Faber also played a big role in helping Montag with his plan with overthrowing the firemen, but in the movie he didn’t overthrow them.…

    Under what context do you usually expect the word courage? Probably somewhere other than it should be. Most people confuse courage with valor, which is heroism in a great battle or cause. What about people who aren't famous or special, can't they show courage too? In truth, a better definition of courage could be doing your duty, even if you know you've lost. This definition given by Atticus Finch, a courageous man similar to Jake Tyler Brigance. Though both of these men are not immensely strong or overly special in any one way, both somehow are courageous. Perhaps this means that Atticus' definition of courage is in fact better than the conventional one, and should be used in its place. This definition of courage is truly proven in both the novel and the film by not only Atticus and Jake as they seek truth and justice, but by Tom and Carl as they struggle with racism.…
