dramatised into a modern equivalent‚ offering viewers a copy that differs on very few points from the original drama. This film was directed by Oliver Parker‚ who also wrote the screenplay. Notably‚ Algernon is portrayed as the older brother in the movie; however in the play Jack is identified as the older of the two. When a film based on a literary piece does not attempt to change its core attributes‚ it can be expected that the director has attempted to convey the meaning as close to the original

story of Frankenstein by Mary Shelley and the movie that is most accurate‚ Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein‚ it is seen that there are many similarities and differences.

are the major conflicts of the movie and are these conflicts resolved satisfactorily at the end? Would you characterize the ending of the film as happy‚ sad‚ or somewhere in between? Stanley Kubric in the movie “2001: A Space Odyssey” does a great job using as little as possible to make the most out of a movie. What he actually did with the film was make a philosophical statement about man’s place in the universe. He did this by using images and left the movie up for interpretation‚ allowing

Reaction about Rizal the movie: First of all‚ I want to criticize the whole movie first‚ the movie was great so is the stars who acted upon the characters who was born on late 1800’s when Dr. Jose Rizal lived as a hero‚ a champion to all Filipino from the Spanish tyranny. This movie really portrays the all the different kinds of emotion exerted by all filipinoes in the hands of the Spanish government. In terms of Rizal’s life‚ although they didn’t exactly tell all of his exploits‚ we can see through

Gruwell‚ then that’s fantastic and good for her. This movie has a cliché story line‚ but I don’t think that it was a bad movie‚ as it is a true story. I think that more stories like that need to be told‚ even if they do have a sappy ending. Also this movie was a little slow-paced and redundant. Is anyone getting tired of the same old theme of rich white girl going to go save inner-city children through "making a difference"? This movie has been done too many times and I would not waste my money

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. To start‚ the first scene in the rumble is when the Socs come to the rumbling
