Compare And Contrast Christmas Carol

400 Words2 Pages

Books are almost always better than the movies based on them. Books give more detail and idea of what is going on. Movies to make them shorter take out huge details. The Christmas Carol is in both forms personally I like the written version more. The written copy is almost always made before the movie. Therefore the recorded copy changes the words from the original story. There are similarities and differences here are some of the later. In recorded version people will talk to the mean old mister Scrooge on the street and not stand as far away from him as possible. The written story puts into great detail where Scrooge lives. The Ghost of Christmas Past looks a lot different in the movie. These are just some of the differences of the two

    A Christmas Carols?: A Comparative Analysis Behind all of the spirits, money, and “Humbugs”, the reworkings of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol take many unique liberties in the specifics of the piece, particularly in their choice of setting, their visualization of thematic elements, and in their characterization of the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge and those who help him (or her) to see the proverbial light. Analyzing both the diversities and correlations between Vanessa Williams’ A Diva’s Christmas Carol (as directed by Richard Shenkman) and Bill Murray’s Scrooged (as directed by Richard Donner), it is apparent how their particular approaches to Dickens’ original novella service them and set them apart from their more classic counterparts

    A Christmas Carol By: Charles Dickens Comparative Literature: In the beginning the movie and the book are having the same plot and scene but as the story goes on it's like some part of the story was being departed from its original plot that based on the book. The scenes in the movie are being twisted just like to the descriptions of the Ghost of Christmas who’s visited Mr. Scrooge. One of the differences that I sighted from book to the movie is that the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come has a hand of skin while in the book the author describes the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come is only a spirit or a skinless man. And another thing is in the movie, the part of the story of the nephew of Scrooge was not that given a full coverage of his story
