Ophelia’s death is used to cause a rise in the emotions felt by the audience that understands the heartbreak of Ophelia’s death, the reason she died, and the way it had an impact on Hamlet. Despite the differences in the stories, they are very similar. Not only did the uncle murder his brother in both stories, but the sons, wives and lovers were all nearly identical. Both Hamlet and Simba were looking for revenge for their fathers’ deaths; the king’s brother took reign; the lovers were left depressed and sorrowful.

There are many similarities from this event from the book and the movie. This ceremony in both are pretty vague until Jonas watched it all happen to one the identical twin weighted less than his other twin brother. Jonas recognized that his dad is essentially killing him but his father doesn’t comprehend this. The ending in both the movie and the book, Jonas runs away from the community with Gabriel with him. In the film, Jonas runs away because initially they were going to kill Gabriel but Jonas is saving him.

Both of these plays focus much of the father son relationship around death. In Death of a Salesman the thing that brings Biff to have an epiphany and want to try and please his dad is when his mother Linda tells him about when his dad tried to kill himself using the tube, learning that his father has tried to kill himself many times before. In Hamlet there is death all over the place but there’s one death that makes the play what it is.

Death changed both of the sons, in a way to please their

For instance, when he was taking over for Montana and he heard that one of the “BGA” members killed him, he went insane.

Have you ever been astounded by someone's actions that may seem so absurd and without any reasoning behind it? George Wilson, may have not been in the right mind, but nothing justifies a murder.

The movie version of The Great Gatsby and the novel had few minor changes. The setting of the movie and book were the same Long Island, New York. The character that was left out from the movie was Dan Cody, Gatsby’s made up millionaire.

First, in our comparison and differences, we should talk about the characters. First is Tom while in the book it shows that he was a bit uptight having Nick around in the first few chapters, Tom in the movie is more relaxed and with great confidence a bit snobby.

Seeming to hide from the world. While in the movie, she from the very beginning is sad when she sees Nick but cheers up after some talking to.

Wealth is the power that motivates creation and empowers downfall. For centuries it has divided people into separate categories and class systems. Fitzgerald uses the various settings to carefully illustrate how wealth positively and negatively affects individuals lives in the roaring 20’s and the traits it reveals about each character. East Egg and West Egg are both known as a residence for the socially elite and affluent of the east coast, but possess differences that relay the characteristics of the inhabitants of each. West Egg is home to Nick Carraway, the narrator of the novel, and Jay Gatsby, his mysterious next door neighbor who introduces him to grand facade of the 1920s.

In The Great Gatsby, Scott F. Fitzgerald utilizes “double vision” by connecting the communities through their actions. More specifically, this pairing was used to exemplify their personalities. East egg, West egg, and Gatsby depict this double vision. Jay Gatsby is seen with dichotomous ideas. In chapter three, he hosted a magnificent party at his house.
