Twilight book and movie
Annika Bobbitt

Stephanie Meyer wrote the amazing book, Twilight, which was the first that became a four saga series. Since the book was very popular with its readers it was made into a movie. Books that become movies have similarities and differences between the original story, as told in the novel and the screen story, as seen in the film. In Twilight there are some important differences and similarities that allow the reader to enjoy both stories.
A key similarity is the story line and main events are the same. Consistently in the book and the film Billy Black is always telling Bella to be careful. Likewise the chase and fight with James and Bella are the same in the book and the movie. Other similarities in the book and the movie are Bella going to the prom with Edward, Edward being mean to Jacob, Bella always dreaming about Edward, Charlie buying a truck from Billy for Bella’s home coming present, Bella meeting all of the Cullens and going to watch them play baseball.
One last important similarity between the book and the film is Edward and Bella going to the meadow together and Edward showing her why he can’t go into the sunlight. This is important in both the book and the film because it states that Edward and his family are vampires. These similarities allow the book and movie to tell the same story. The differences in Twilight are very easy to pick out. For instance, in the book, Jessica, Angela, and Bella go to Port Angeles to do some dress shopping for the spring dance where as in the movie they are shopping for the prom. In the book, Bella faints in biology class because they were working with blood. In the movie this is not even there. The book also says that Bella went with Jasper and Alice to the airport to pick up Edward, Carlisle, and Emmett and then she escaped Jasper’s watch and goes to find James at her old ballet studio. The movie is different since it has Bella sneaking out of the hotel she was

    The Maltese Falcon

    Some similarities are very important to understand the story even if it’s in book or movie form. Starting with the setting or city it’s involved in. They were both set up in the city of San Francisco. If one was set up in San Francisco and one in let’s say Denver then the setting of the whole story would be off. The one in Denver would have a colder feeling and people would be wearing coats and stuff from the one in San Francisco the feeling wouldn’t be as cold. So the setting similarity is very important to the story on a high level. Also the names of all the characters are similar. This is important because if the characters were named different and someone was trying to follow along then that would confuse that person. So say if the character is named Jake in one story and Spade in another then how you would know without having to look for extra details like features of the face. Also the title is the same. I know there is a movie called Satan Meets a Lady that is a version of the Maltese Falcon. A movie watcher wouldn’t know that the book is related to the movie without putting two and two together. The movies name is very important to the person comprising and just wanted to see the movie. I love book related of movies and it’s easier to find if they had the same name. Those are only just a few similarities of the book and movie there are a lot more. So all the similarities are really important, from weather it’s to understanding the book verses the movie or vice versa.…

    When comparing the book Twilight, written by Stephanie Meyers, with the movie Twilight, screenplay written by Melissa Rosenberg and produced by Catherine Hardwicke, there are multiple visual differences between the two. Some important scenes were changed or even omitted from the original text, leaving noticeable gaps in the movie’s plot. There are big and important differences, which are obvious, while there are also less important differences between them such as names and small missing details. The most important differences between the book and movie were when Bella tells Edward she knows he is a Vampire and when Edward saves Bella from Tyler’s van in the beginning. In reading the book before seeing the movie the phrase “The book is always better than the movie,” is proven true with Twilight.…
