    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.

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.

    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.

    The Movie or the Book? Nicholas Sparks has written multiple novels that have evolved into movies‚ such as The Notebook‚ The Last Song‚ Dear John‚ Message in a Bottle‚ and A Walk to Remember.
