In the book‚ Davie fell overboard. Oh‚ wait‚ in the movie‚ the ship blew up. Never mind the fact that the movie was much more violent‚ it was completely derailed of the plot!

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‚ and the play out of certain events.

Into the Wild: Book vs. Movie Into the Wild happens to be my favorite book‚ and also one of my favorite movies. Most people like one or the other‚ but I think the two complement each other because of the varied stances taken on the main character himself. In case you’re not familiar‚ Into the Wild is based on the true story of Chris McCandless who‚ after graduating with honors from Emory University in 1990‚ gave his entire savings of twenty-four thousand dollars to charity and set off following

The monster is always found in the center of all the action: Eight feet tall and hideous‚ the monster is rejected by his society
