The Choice Book Vs Movie
The book I read this trimester was The Choice written by Nicholas Sparks. The choice is a heart wrenching story about two neighbors, Travis and Gabby, who end up falling in love. Spanning the eventful years of their young love, marriage and family, The Choice ultimately confronts the reader with the hardest question of all: how far would you go to keep the hope of love alive? If i could make this book into a movie i would very known directors and actors because it would make the movie more interesting to the viewers. The directory i would use would have to be Nick Cassavetes because he has done many romantic movies such as the Notebook which was also based of a book written by Nicholas Sparks. The way Cassavetes films makes the motion picture …show more content…
Debra is perfect for the role of Gabby because the have very similar characteristics. Most importantly she has the fiery red hair that Gabby has in the book. I think that Debra has featured herself in many roles that were similar to Gabby such as her part as Grace in the hit Sitcom Will and Grace. She also has fresh face and it would be easy for her to play both 28 year old Gabby and 40 year old Gabby. The next actor i would use Chris Pine for the character Travis. Travis is a laid back veterinarian who is very sporty and loves the outdoors. Chris Pine has that athletic look and physique. Chris Pine can play both 29 year old Travis and 40 year old Travis. Chris Pine has a very boys next door look which is needed because Gabby is supposed to have a huge crush on him. I think that Chris Pine and Debra Messing would have good chemistry and they would look good together. In the book Travis’ dad is a huge part. I would have to cast someone who is older but is good at acting. I would use Mel Gibson because he is a really good actor and he is a crowd pleaser. I think he would bring in an older crowd of people to come see the move. He also has done romantic type movies before so it wouldn't be hard for him to get into

    In the book, Davie fell overboard. Oh, wait, in the movie, the ship blew up. Never mind the fact that the movie was much more violent, it was completely derailed of the plot! Yes, many of the people out there like guns and bombs, but the book had many more twists and turns then the movie. I will show you one comparison I noticed. In the movie, Davie’s dad died from a tree falling on him. In the book Davie’s dad was shot. Also, the book itself didn’t start with Davie’s dad dying , it started with Davie’s dad being dead, and Mr.Campbell telling him that he belonged to the House of Shaws. Also a misfortune for the movie watchers, the trip only took 2 miles, and in the book, it took him 2 days. Therefore, there was much more events in the beginning of the book.…

    S.E. Hinton was only 15 years old when she wrote this extremely detailed book. I liked her book a lot because of how much detail she put into it. I didn’t like the movie a lot because I was kind of expecting it to be a lot like the book but was disappointed when it left out many different parts of the book. While the book and movie have many similarities and differences, the book was more effective in telling the story.…

    Fahrenheit 451 was written by Ray Bradbury in 1953. A well-known science fiction novel that teaches people to appreciate the freedom to read books. It explores the theme of having a negative dystopian society that is controlled by a ruling government and the censorship of books. Fourteen years later the book was adapted into a movie version directed by Francois Truffaut. The movie was made so that readers have a visual way to look at it rather than reading it. There were major differences in the movie which excluded important details provided by the book, concerning the characters, and the advanced technology. Even with the differences, the plot of the movie followed similarly to the plot of the book.…

    There are many differences between the movie and the book. First the positive points: This film attaches faces to Scout, Jem, Miss Maudie, and Dill, since no description of their faces is given in the book. Also, the film has some genuinely hilarious moments, particularly the scene where Scout is dressed as a ham and walking through the forest. Another good point is that the acting was superb and a treat to watch. Gregory Peck, who played Atticus, was captivating. The film is cast very well. The novel does not give physical descriptions of Scout, Jem, Miss Maudie, and Dill, but the film characters were believable. The actors look like what we would expect them to look like.…
