Have you ever read a book then watched the movie and noticed that some things were gone and missing when you look back in the book and compare the things that were there and what wasn't there? Today I will be telling you the compare and contrast of Call of The Wild about what happened and my thesis will be about how different the movie explains the story from the Novel.

1 Instincts.
The Novel and the Movie both have a main focus which is Buck who is the main central character of the movie and story. Although they each have their own way of expressing their way, Buck shows his instincts. In the Novel Buck just has those instincts in him and he fights with them to show him the way to survive. In the Movie, Buck has a Black Wolf that shows him like when he was fighting spitz in the novel he was getting thrown on the ground until his instincts kicked in and he beat spitz. In the movie, he was on the ground when he saw the black wolf standing there which gave him the strength and courage to beat spitz. …show more content…

The Movie shows more of a less violent scene during the part where John Thorton was shot; there was no blood around the area of the wound or on the floor. There was a little blood around his hand but not a lot of blood. Also during the part where Buck fights Spitz in the book, it says he ripped and tore the flesh of spitz and broke his bone. In the movie, it shows he throws Spitz over and stands on him, and lets him go so after that Spitz ran away. In the story, it says how they ate Spitz alive while he was down on the floor. So the story is more bloody and gore than the

    In the movie, a scene was added to the book, the scene when Mrs. Foster and Winnie go to the bread shop. Another difference in the scene is that the book doesn’t include the scene at the bar were Miles is playing cards with another person. As well as the scene of the campfire and the dancing with Jesse and Winnie. Differences can also be in actions and what the actors say just like when Jesse and Winnie jump into the lake in the movie, and in the book Miles and Jesse jump into the lake, Jesse also tell Winnie the secret and Miles tells the story in detail instead of Mae, they didn’t discuss who takes Winnie to the lake, but in the book they do, the constable doesn’t go with the man in the yellow suit but Mr. Foster and his people do and on the other hand the constable went. Another Jesse never gives the bottle to Winnie but in the book he does, also the man in the yellow suit shoots Jesse with a gun and Jesse shows him he has everlasting life.

    The first, obvious, difference between them, is that most of the movie took place in a town or city, not a country or farm like in the story. I definitely liked the story version with the farm much better than the city setting. I felt like it was cleaner and easier to understand whereas the movie’s town setting made it a bit more hectac. Although the city gave the plot more action, I thought, the farm made it more spooky and creepy, which I preferred. The last difference is the fact that the main character in the the movie was a female, when the main character in the story is a male.
