The movie adaptation of The Great Gatsby maintained true to the original book by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Although mostly everything seems to stay the same‚ some movie scenes differ. Nick’s character is tweaked and Gatsby’s parties are not the same. The movie also creates more false hope than the novel does. Nick Carraway is the first character introduced into the book and movie‚ but in a different aspect. F. Scott Fitzgerald introduces Nick right away as the narrator. He is giving a monologue about

Baz Luhrmann accurately portrayed the characters of the novel in his film by emphasizing their hopes along with their flaws. However‚ there were many plot discrepancies in the movie due to Luhrmann’s need to make the movie more appealing to moviegoers. Character representation was an important aspect of both the novel and the movie. Since they

Of Mice and Men: Book vs Movie -Movie starts off with a woman running away frightened‚ and then the scene changes to George and Lennie running away from men on horses‚ most likely police. They both jump in the water and avoid the men on horses. This did not happen in the book‚ but foreshadows what George tells Slim later on. -They both jump on a train‚ and then exhaustingly crawl to where they sit down. This doesn’t happen in the book. -The next scene‚ they’re in town near an employment agency

Potter: Book vs. Movie With all the new movies based on books or comics that are out‚ people wonder why Hollywood keeps doing it. Some say they’re greedy people‚ just doing it for the money‚ and others say that it helps bring the book to life. But I say‚ why ruin a good book‚ like Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone‚ with bad lighting and adequate actors? I say that we don’t have to because the comparison between the two forms of entertainment is a landslide victory for the book. You may

I. Movie Poster VS Book Cover The Movie poster shows the two main characters‚ Peter Lake and Beverly Penn who love each other. On 1916 in New York City when they meet and love each other. The style of color in the poser was Blue meaning it is a winter season on that time when they meet. When Beverly Penn died‚ Peter Lake got amnesia and he lives a century until he meets a little girl name Abby in 2014 that New York City was changed and have a more taller building

I like the book more than the movie. Audience reaction has to be taken into consideration in a way that books don’t have to. The audience‚ cannot‚ even for a moment‚ be confused as to who the "bad guy" is. Otherwise‚ you can have a teenage Scarface. "Moral Convenience" is what’s pissing you off. The HBO adaptation of Game of Thrones also does this. Good characters never "cross the line" where as bad guys say homophobic comments and express jealousy. This is the reason why fantasy-themed works

In the book and movie of To Kill a Mockingbird‚ the lesson of keeping one’s head held high is experienced differently. The lesson is openly stated in both the novel and the movie. Atticus says to Scout after a fight with Cecil Jacobs to‚ “just hold your head high and keep those fists down” (Lee 76). Scout had fought Cecil because she believed Atticus would want her to stand up for him. Yet‚ Atticus tells her the opposite and wishes she would let all the rude talk go rather than fighting those who

Dawn: Between the book and movies There are many differences between breaking dawn the book and breaking dawn (parts 1 and 2) the movie. Some are blatantly obvious while others you have to know where to look to even be able to spot them. I’ll start with the book and part one of the movie. Edward and Bella had talked about her staying human for a full year before she turned so she could attend Dartmouth‚ But in the movie there was no talk at all about collage. In the movie Edward shares with

However‚ due to previous attempts of portraying her works on film‚ I was actually left more skeptical instead (The pilot for the planned television series based off of Delirium was an absolutely disgusting mess). Thankfully though‚ this time things were done right. The movie stayed true to the book with minimal changes/cut out parts. There were some scenes that I wish

The limited time of movies‚ which is mostly 1.5- 3 hours‚ force the director to do editing and delete many parts of the movie. Although The Help movie deleted many characters and events from the novel‚ it did not effect on the success. The researcher thinks that the movie was not as good the book because there were
