Francis Ford Coppola changed the character around a lot. Three characters that had the most changes were Ponyboy Curtis‚ Johnny Cade‚ and Dallas Winston (Dally). In the book‚ Pony had a good relationship with his brother

    In The Republic‚ Plato plays around with the argument that it is better to be just than unjust. His vessel for showing this is through the forming of an “ideal” city.

    Persepolis Film and Book Comparison Persepolis the movie doesn’t really deviate from the book all too much. Except for a couple of scenes in color‚ which were set outside the time frame of the book‚ the film basically followed the book. Some scenes‚ for the purpose of time were likely skipped and not included in the film.
