Proven by The Diary of a Young Girl‚ by Anne Frank‚ the play by Francis Goodrich and Albert Hackett The Diary of Anne Frank‚ does not have a justified use of dramatic license because the authors twist the characters to be very different than real life‚ the story is misleading to the readers about a historical time‚ and there was an absence of characters in the play. The falsification of Mr.Van Daan’s and Mr. Frank’s personalities allows the readers to believe that the characters

I favored the DVD over the written version of A Christmas Carol. Short stories and novels are not as interesting in my opinion. The book had a much darker tone throughout it. The movie had a slightly more lighthearted tone‚ with Scrooge laughing more often. There are multiple differences between the film and book‚ A Christmas Carol. Scrooge does not meet Tim on the street waiting for his father. The book does not tell a part about just Tim and his father. Marley’s ghost does not say his name repeatedly

Oysters: Anne Sexton: An appreciation (commentary) The poem “Oysters” came into view in Anne Sexton’s sixth published book of poetry called “The Book of Folly”.
