The movie and book of Hamlet is a bit deceiving. The Queen and Ophelia are shown as being loved by all the men in their lives but that is falsely shown in both the book and the movie. This is extremely important to realize because if you look a bit further past the surface of the movie and the book you will notice that the ladies in the story are treated poorly. The three parts that prove this to be true‚ the queen’s son Hamlet and the King didn’t tell her the truth to benefit themselves. Hamlet

Choose one specific difference between the movie and the graphic novel. Explain why the script writer‚ director may have made this change?

I think the director have made this difference because of the role of women in the society at that time

by one of the most noble of characters in my favourite movies of all time. The Lord of the Rings is a story that is epically written by J.R.R Tolkien. It is a three part book that has been adapted into film with many characters that individually play important roles in the story.

5/14/17 Seeing the play for Romeo and Juliet expanded my understanding of the book and helped me to visualize the characters better.

differences between the way the play The Crucible was written and the way it was presented in the film adaptation we watched in class. One major difference was that in the movie‚ the girls were shown dancing in the forest at the beginning. In the play it is only a flashback. The scene was added in the movie to make it more dramatic and foreshadowing. I think it helps to understand the movie better and it sets the mood of the story from the very beginning.
