    Denzel Washington‚ on the 1965 book‚ The Autobiography of Malcolm X as told to Alex Haley. Most significant events and experiences in the seventeen chapters of the book were covered in the movie with both focusing on the many transformations of Malcolm.

    The book and the movie of ¨The Outsiders¨ are generally the same but differs at some of the parts. As books and movies usually do‚ they both share the same same story line and the general idea. Nonetheless‚ the differences are quite large. Both the book and the movie are very similar‚ or else it wouldn’t be much of a point to make a movie for a book. For instance‚ the both have Johnny killing Bob while they were drowning Ponyboy. Although it‚ like the book‚ doesn’t go into great detail about it

    There is quite a few differences between the book and movie The Outsiders. The book is written by S.E. Hinton. We have been reading the outsiders and we were wondering which was better the movie or the book.

    In the book & the movie Kidnapped what I found interesting in the movie was when the gun did not shoot when the captain tried to kill Alan and it worked when Davie shot the Captain I also found interesting was when the uncle of Davie said “Why are you here” with gun pointing at Davie.
