There are many reasons why I personally have enjoyed the film more than the novel. I believe that there is a lot of small details in the film that makes it that much better. An example would include when prim tucks in her shirt after she is called up on stage. Nowhere in the novel did the author give this small but powerful detail. Another example would include at the start of the film when it gave us an explanation of the reaping and what it stood for. We did get this information in the novel‚ but

After watching the film‚ The Great Gatsby (2013)‚ I feel like as if the movie and film correlates together well‚ especially when it comes to the characters. Each of the characters from the film were well-played actors—I felt like none of them were miscasts—and I wouldn’t change a thing about it if I was the director of the film. This film does a fantastic job with the visuals from the exciting parties Jay Gatsby threw at his mansion to the shocking emotional moment in which he was also killed by

Movie directors often use the plot from a famous novel to create a movie. Director’s change the plot to make it more captivating for the audience by leaving out important details or adding scenes that were not in the book. However‚ in the 1979 Scarlet Letter mini-series important details are similar to Nathaniel Hawthorne’s novel‚ The Scarlet Letter. Modernization is one way to captivate audiences. Therefore‚ many directors change the time period of the movie to better relate to people. However

which typically causes a first-person story to be challenging. To have Scout’s narration constantly throughout the film as she does in the book would be misleading‚ therefore Scout as narrator is only presented to set the mood of certain scenes in the film. As a result‚ viewers don’t get a bold sense of Scout’s first-person narration as they do in the book. Instead‚ they naturally notice the childlike perspective portrayed through the story.

The dialogue and order of events in‚ The Outsiders‚ is almost completely the same between the novel and the movie because in the book Sodapop Curtis says “Soda just put his hand on my shoulder. ‘Easy‚ Ponyboy. They ain’t gonna hurt you no more.’ ” and “You’re an okay kid ponyboy”. Which is exactly what happens in the movie. “ ‘What’d he want?’ Two-Bit asked. ‘What’d Mr. Super-Soc have to say?’ ‘He ain’t a Soc‚’ I said‚ ‘he’s just a guy. He just wanted to talk.’ ”

With almost every famous novel‚ comes either an excellent movie adaption or a cringe worthy film that has viewers constantly reminding others to read the book instead. Harper Lee’s “To Kill A Mockingbird” was no exception to this unspoken rule. Although the film excelled in accurately depicting most of the novel’s content‚ there were some omitted details that could have improved the movie’s interpretation of the novel. One of the most obvious differences between the film and the novel would be

“The Monkey’s Paw” “The Monkey’s Paw” is a short story written W. W. Jacobs‚ following the short story it has a short film. I preferred the short story because I thought it was written and expressed a lot better than the film. I didn’t care for the actors and setting in the film‚ I pictured it differently when I read it. The Film and short story had similarities‚ characters‚ setting‚ and some dialogue. It starts off with a chess game with Mr.White and his son. Then Morris came to visit‚ and
