  • Similarities Between Beowulf And Grinch

    Both conveying a bitter person’s revenge on an innocent society, Grendel’s first attack on Heorot in Beowulf is similar to the beginning of How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Dr. Seuss and the poet of Beowulf depict in their literary work’s an outsider whose hatred for the people is fueled by their separation from that society. By further elaborating Grendel’s disconnection from Heorot, the poem describes that the character, “had dwelt for a time / in misery among the banished monsters”, which can be compared to the Grinch’s isolated home away from Whoville (lines 104 - 105). Feeling the need to take from a society that is overall in a better state, greed seems to be the influential factor behind the wrongdoers’ crimes. Clearly, the Grinch's

    True happiness can already be achieved in our society, as we have knowledge we need to know to sustain that. However, in the societies of Fahrenheit 451 and Pleasantville, that is not the case. Certain aspects of knowledge that are available in our society are being suppressed in the two works (literature in Fahrenheit 451, culture in Pleasantville). It can be said that knowledge does contribute to true happiness; it drastically lowers false happiness, increases diversity, and allows for change. False happiness is a big issue that shapes the stories of the book and the novel.

    For instance, when Max wakes up in the movie, he sees a body stood erectly and frigidly by his window, looking fixedly at Max. In the book, this never transpires. Also, I feel that in the book Killer Kane emphasizes the facts that he “never killed anyone” more than he did in the movie. Also, in the book, Kenny needs a car, while in the movie, he already has a beat up, old pick-up truck. Then, in the movie, they go straight to the old woman’s apartment, never stopping at Iggy’s apartment to eat hamburgers as they did in the book.

    Have you ever watched a movie based on a book that told the exact same story? To me, for some reason, books always seem to be the better one out of the two. I feel that in novels, the author develops the story with as many details as possible, while in movies that aspect doesn’t appear in the same way. There aren’t as many details in films since it has to last for a certain amount of time, but books can last for as many pages as the author would like them to. When I read, the fascinating novel “Beowulf,” I really enjoyed how the author made me use my imagination to create a picture of the world that the characters were living in.

    Each adaptation shows the “moors” very differently. In the novel Hounds of the Baskerville the moors are described as “dark against the evening sky, the long, gloomy curve of the moor, broken by jagged and sinister hills…. a desolate area of nearly 775 square kilometers of disorienting granite hills and boggy, treacherous mires that can suck a man to his death.” (PG) This description gives a spooky mysterious feel that you would expect to see in each adaptation.
