Frankenstein: Movie vs. Book Mary Shelley?s Frankenstein has been done and redone many many times. The most recent version starring Kenneth Branagh‚ who also directed it‚ and Robert DeNiro has many differences when compared to the original story. Mary Shelley?s original story provided a story line for the imagination of the filmmaker‚ making the movie related to the original story but also unique in itself. For the most part‚ if one were to only watch the movie they would have a fairly good sense

In the film‚ freak moves into the house next to max‚ and then there is just trouble coming up from lookism (Kevin) and relationship oppression (Max‚ as he is the son of a murderer). Mostly‚ it is just a plot and a sequence of events without much of a clear character arc. In the book‚ freak (Kevin) still moves into the house next to Max‚ and a few social norms are not observed (in contrast to the movie‚ where the actors (voice & physical)

Skellig Book vs. Film Skellig by David Almond was made into a film and into a book‚ although they are based on the same story by the same author but with a different director‚ they are very different and they are not similar to each other in the plot and in the ideas. The book is a simple story about a boy named Michael and is jealous and worried about his baby sister who has been sick since the day she was born. There is slight fantasy and magic to the story that adds a twist

In the book the birds there is almost nothing like the movie there are different characters and different events. There are some similarities like the birds attacked the people trying to kill them all‚ and the birds did get a few people in both the movie and the book. There were many differences from the book to the movie. I was wondering why the birds went crazy and why they started attacking the people. The story didn’t even take place in the same town or even country in the book it was need londen

ENG.2 5/23/2011 The Road The Road was both a phenomenal book and film. While reading The Road I was both intrigued and interested as to how Hollywood would portray this story‚ and after seeing the movie I was impressed with how closely the film followed the book. Though the book was enticing and unusual the movie quickly surpassed the book in my opinion. Though the movie followed the book closely‚ there were some differences such as the amount of flashbacks the father has‚ the illusion of hope

disappointed in the movie because it left out some of the main scenes. On the other hand‚ the movie is 2 hours and 9 minutes. The movie never leaves you predicting what will happen next. Nevertheless‚ our opinions are that we favored the book over the movie. Everyone in the class notices many differences between the book and the movie. Provided that the book gives detail that the movie cannot show it is a missing part in itself. Aunt Alexandra was not even mentioned in the movie. You didn’t see Scout
