    Personally if I read a book first and then watch the movie‚ the movie never lives up to the book. With this book To kill a Mockingbird I liked it better than the movie. The movie left out things I found very important in the book‚ along with other minor details. One thing the movie changed and left out was the way Jem and Scout got their gifts from Boo Radley. 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

    graduation with LeAlan. 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. I like the movie better because it shows more things that never happened in the book. I like the book a little bit because it

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

Secondly‚ the book was a lot more descriptive than the movie. The book had more figurative language and was clearer than the movie which resulted in a better insight and perspective

    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

    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.

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
