    read the book The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini it shows a big difference of how it is portrayed with the movie. The book has more details and a deeper meaning than the movie. Watching the movie I saw that the creators did not add the important details. It is depressing because there were so many scenes that I wanted to get a better image. The movie had different aspects that it did not tell like the story did. What I believe was an important scene in the book was not shown in the movie. After watching

    The movie itself is very much different from the book. The story was also changed with some of the plot. The movie and the book are both still following the same story line. Along with the same ending. This is what I have noticed between the movie and the book. Number one is that the old man was cruel to the young man. Unlike in the book where it says and I quote “The old man had never wronged me”. That was huge difference. This change also gave him a different reason to kill the old man. That was
