In the book Scout is the one who finds the first gift from Boo in the old oak tree in front of the Radley house. The first thing she finds

Also the book didn’t write about the principle thinking that LeAlan and Lloyd was saying all these bad things about the hood that was not true.The reason why I think that there are so many differences in the book and movie is because LeAlan grandmother was singing her favorite song in the movie and the book never said that she was singing her favorite song.

“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.

To Kill a Mockingbird‚ by Harper Lee and the 1962 movie‚ had many differences in the ways they were shown to us in the book and movie. One of the ways‚ is that most of the movie is told in the point of view of Jem unlike the book which is narrated by Scout. The other is about how Mrs. Dubose role in the book and movie are completely different‚ because in the movie she is just some crazy old lady that the kids would walk by. Also In the book‚ she used to show how atticus discipled his kids. These

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

In the movie‚ Robert Neville is a scientist who was unable to stop the spread of the terrible
