Book Vs Movie Differences

224 Words1 Page

You did a great job in showing both the differences and similarities with both versions of the metamorphosis, the movie and book. From what I understand after reading your essay, the movie differs quite a bit in many places, with the similarities being very minimal. I think the whole essay was strong, well organized and thought out. The summary provided details of the differences of scenes, with solid examples scene by scene. It was effective because, you focused your summary to scenes in the book, to the movie, and exactly what the differences were.

What two topics are compared or contrasted? Is the essay focused on similarities or differences? Is this clear – why or why not?

You actually compared quite a few topics (scenes), such a difference

    E ven though the novel and picture versions of The Fault in Our Stars are similar in plot and characterisation, the book portrayed the moral of the story more meaningfully with extensive, emotional dialect. The plot is the same in both the book and film, but each of them have specific minor changes. In John Greens novel, Hazel is a vegetarian, is extremely cancerous and very depressed. Similarly, Augustus has two siblings, is an uncle to his sisters’ children and had a previous girlfriend who Hazel would be very inquisitive about later in the text.

  • Differences Between The Wizard Of Oz Movie And Book

    398 Words  | 2 Pages

    To the Directors of the Wizard of Oz: I am writing to you concerning the 1939 movie adaptation of the children 's novel, "The Wizard of Oz". In the movie version, the adventure Dorothy takes is portrayed as whimsical, and dreamlike; her adventure was a dream. In the original novel, the girl 's house magically spun around and landed in the Land of Oz; it actually happened and was not in fact a dream. I do not think this was a wise choice, as it happened to changed the entire interpretation of the story. The book portrayed it as a real series of events instead of a dream due to her injury for multiple reasons.

  • World War Z Movie Vs Book

    1395 Words  | 6 Pages

    In a nutshell, World War Z is the story of zombies; another story which takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where the threat of zombies has not hit a world-wide level. However, the novel and the film take the plot and zombie idea, and develop two very different adaptation of this idea. While film adaptation usually tend to differ from their book counterparts, World War Z goes beyond the usual plot twists and missing scenes. It seems as if the film adaptation of this novel is missing almost every scene from the book, as the film itself was turned into almost a completely different story, and tends to focus more on what would be considered the main character (in the film), Gerry Lane. In comparison to the novel, the film itself is almost

Which means both the graphic novel and film version of Hercules include literacy characteristics of characters, setting, and Denouement; yet both have such differences as well. For an example, in the graphic novel he goes cytopathic and kills his wife and children while in the film he gets married and doesn’t have any kids at all.

    No matter how hard directors and screenwriters try, it is impossible for any movie to be a perfect reflection of the detailed plot and intricate characters presented in a novel. I had watched the film adaption of Richard Matheson’s I Am Legend prior to reading the book, I was very aware of major differences from the get go. The to main categories that I could see differences being placed in were emotion and action. Many aspects of the book were changed to emphasize both either emotion or action for the film. Considering pieces of literature cannot be easily transferred to the screen, few of these changes were very necessary.

  • The Help Movie Vs Book

    790 Words  | 4 Pages

    The Help Some people believe that the movie adaption of a book doesn’t always capture the spirit of the book, but that isn’t always true. Tate Taylor, director of The Help, with the help of powerful performances from the cast does a good job of recreating the book The Help by Kathryn Stockett. The story is set in Mississippi in the early 1960s and is about a young girl who wants a job as a writer and writes a book about the lives of “the help”. The Help is a great book to read, with many ups and downs, unique characters, and leaves the reader wanting more with a cliffhanger ending, and not the cliché happy ending.
