The novel The House of Fog and Sand and its film adaptation are both viable options when it comes to the telling of how obsession led these unfortunate characters to each their own demise. That being said, The film and the novel do possess quite a few differences. Despite its differences, the two forms of media maintain just enough similarities that they can both branch off into its own original form without having fear of straying from the plot.
To begin, a point of similarity that the film has in comparison to the book is how both portray the significance of the house to the two main characters(Behrani and Kathy). Both individuals feel that they deserve the house and that it is rightfully theirs. Both forms of media properly show the intense longing

To Behrani, the house stood for his family’s future in America. Both adaptations firmly grasped the desperation of Kathy in her fight for her house.
Next off, two of the major differences that can be seen regarding the movie and the novel include: how both looked into Lester(the police officer who helps Kathy) past and how both medias ended. Beginning with how both adaptations dealt with explaining Lester’s actions, the novel supplies the audience with details regarding his past. The book discusses(and goes into detail about) how the absence of his father during his adolescence and being bullied as a child greatly affected his future behaviors and actions. In the movie, details surrounding Lester’s past were mentioned but were never truly elaborated on. The second item that the movie and the book differed on was the ending. The book adaptation is a bit more graphic and provides more closure so to speak. In the book, Behrani, upon finding out that his son has died in the hospital, goes back to the house to
I think these differences make the book and the movie way both interesting. I think the differences are good because it sums it all up and with hearing both the book and the movie it fills in the blank questions in your
In my opinion there are a lot of comparisons between the film and the book, but there are also differences between them too, but also they have impacted the audience in both the film and the
My final is about the difference between the book and the movie “The Outsiders.” This next paragraph is about the description difference between the book and movie. Then the paragraph after that will be about the description of the background or cars that the characters drive or live in. I think that the move and the book where basted of the same story but I think that when the directors made the movie with some different cars or house that can change the movie or they put different things in it so that the movie will look better. Altogether the movie and the book were pretty good and had good meaning to it about want to think of life and it’s alright to not be tough and hard.
In my opinion the book was way better than the movie because it provided much more detail; the movie on the other hand left out very important details that felt necessary after
Ender's Game novel written by Orson Scott Card in 1985. In 2013 the made it into a movie Director Gavin Hood. The movie Ender's Game based on the novel, but they are not completely the same. There are similarities in these two works of art. However, there are also differences.
The Holocaust was a horrible part of history which has been written about or movies have been made about it. Night by Elie Wiesel and the movie Schindler’s List tell accounts from this time in history. However, the accounts in the book and movie are different, but do have similarities too. Schindler’s List provides a different point of view than Night does for some elements of the Holocaust.
Imagine seeing character from a film walking in a obscure solitary hallway where you see a vast shadow of a mole trying to devour you... this might seem cool but this is indeed one of the major differences between the City of Ember film and the Bible. If you want to have my opinion, I would assay that the Bible is a lot better than the film, some other differences are such as adding incident, speed of story and events, and characters. In the City of Ember film they had to add some events so that the motion picture wouldn't get boring. One of the events that the picture had and the Bible doesn't would be the gigantic mole because the mole had some major events such as consumption the mayor and trying to butcher Lina and Doon.
It had more narration so the reader could understand what is happening. Secondly, the movie. The movie was different than the book. It had some parts that were in the book, but it lacked some details.
Another difference is that in the movie they go into town, but in the book it 's never mentioned. Something else that was different was that in the book the mood was happy most of the time, while in the movie the mood was sad. A difference between the book and the movie is that in the book momma was going to burn Byron, but in the movie she does not burn him. A big difference is that in the
The story, A Sound of Thunder, by Ray Bradbury was an amazing short novel in which was well received by many. But, in early 2000’s there was a movie adaptation of the short novel written by Ray Bradbury. The movie was directed by Peter Hyams, and many questioned what similarities were between the movie and the short novel. In the movie, many things were taken out and changed from the short story. But, at the same time, many things were the same as the story.
Stephen King, a famous writer once said, “Books and movies are like apples and oranges. They are both fruit, but they taste completely different.” Truly, this applies to all movies and books. This quote is effective describing the novel and the movie, A Raisin in the Sun. Although the two share similar scenes and acts, the movie shows a lot more details which make it better.
Some of the major differences, such as the changes in Jonas, Fiona, and Asher’s characters in the movie as well as Jonas’s escape, really separate the movie from the book. However, that is not to say that there are not plenty of similarities. The descriptions and portrayals of Jonas’s feelings about the Community, The Giver, and the structure of the Community are very similar between the two stories. While the similarities greatly outnumber the differences, some of the differences are very major and can change the story a
There are details left out of the movie that were in the book, the movie doesn 't demonstrate the ongoing theme of hunger as well as the book does, and the the movie does a better job with
After reading The Perfect Storm, by Sebastian Junger, I have concluded that the book kept my attention throughout, but I believe it could have improved. The storyline is scattered among many different stories, all centered around the meteorological nightmare of October of 1991. The setting, time, and place quickly change from story to story as most end in human lives being slain by the storm. I believe the movie is structured better, as it is centered around only one story, the story of a Gloucester, Massachusetts fishing crew on the Andrea Gail. I do not think the author had the experience of these men, whom he wrote about to remember and respect.
Another difference would be the way the short stories were ordered. In the book, the stories were told in no perceptible order, making it hard to remember who is whose daughter/mother etc. The movie begins with a party which all the characters attend, and the stories are disclosed as the character is thinking about it. The mother and daughter’s stories are staged after one another. The movie allows for a more natural way of telling the story, and makes it easier to remember the characters and associate mothers with daughters.
