    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

    Despite the fact that I watched the movie first I still think that the book was better for the following reasons.

    Because a movie has much less time to showcase the events explained in the story‚ many scenes from a book often get cut out of the movie. If this did not happen‚ most movies that are based off of books would be much longer than the average two hours. One of the major differences I noticed while watching the film To Kill a Mockingbird was the fact that Aunt Alexandra was never present in the movie; she was not in one single scene! Because of this‚ the issue of Scout having to act like a “lady” was

    Today the make-up of geisha is one of the most recognizable characteristics about them‚ but historically this has not always been the case. The origins of white face make-up in Japanese culture are largely disputed. Some believe that the Japanese were inspired by "pale faced" European women‚ while others believe that it originated in China and was later adopted by the women in the Japanese court. The use of white make-up in Japanese history can be dated back as early as the Heian Era (794-1185 AD)

    which typically causes a first-person story to be challenging. To have Scout’s narration constantly throughout the film as she does in the book would be misleading‚ therefore Scout as narrator is only presented to set the mood of certain scenes in the film. As a result‚ viewers don’t get a bold sense of Scout’s first-person narration as they do in the book. Instead‚ they naturally notice the childlike perspective portrayed through the story. Scout arguably plays the greatest role in To Kill A Mockingbird
