    It provides a profound window into one of the most incredible stories to ever be told. As a reader you feel like a silent member of the family as Jeanette describes the events in such vivid detail and emotion. The raw emotion you feel from the words on a page are amplified tenfold as the movie brings the novel alive. The brilliance from the movie shines in the director’s choice of cuts, shots and music selection. A problem that most books turned novel is that the director tries to make the movie their own as opposed to building the movie on the foundation the book has already provided.

  • Dude That's Like So Meta Analysis

    Dude, that’s like, So Meta By Meryl Juergens, Dramaturg/Assistant Director Adaptation can take us anywhere along the creative spectrum, from Brecht’s The Threepenny Opera to the quintessential early 2000’s film Ten Things I Hate About You. In the best instances, adaptation not only changes a story, but also builds it up for the better, bringing in new light to unexplored parts of the journey. This is exactly what Aaron Posner has done in writing his play, Stupid F*cking Bird- referred to as a “sort of” adaptation of Anton Chekhov’s The Seagull. You’ve probably heard of Chekhov, no matter where you stand in terms of theatre appreciation.

  • Differences Between Where Are You Going Where Have You Been Book And Movie

    The movie did have most of the characteristics in the short story correct with only a few differences therefore it is a good adaptation of the story. It’s understandable that the movie added more scenes because the director might have wanted it to be more interesting rather than just have it exactly like the short story. In addition, a cliffhanger in a movie that is not part of a series would be very annoying. Nevertheless, the short story is better than the movie because the reader can read the descriptions of certain characters and are able to hear their thoughts. For example, the story says, “June is a secretary in the high school Connie attended, and if that wasn’t bad enough, she was so plain and chunky and steady that Connie had to hear her praised all the time by her mother and her mother’s sisters” (Oates 324).

  • Comparing The Play And Film Version Of The Crucible '

    720 Words  | 3 Pages

    The 1997 award winning The Crucible, for the critic’s choice movie award for best supporting actress, was an outstanding written play and film. Out of the two alterations of The Crucible, David Hytner’s 1996 film version of The Crucible is by far the most accurate and best representation of Arthur Miller’s The Crucible. This is for many reasons such as the following; Daniel Day-Lewis did the best job at characterizing the character of John Proctor, the film version of The Crucible provides the audience with a more in depth image of the Puritans, and the film version reached a much wider array of viewers. Daniel Day-Lewis’s portrayal of John Proctor in David Hytner’s 1996 version of The Crucible provided more depth to this character than the original script, written by Arthur Miller. This is due to his glorified past.

But in the movie Sofia lives with her family for a couple of weeks in town. Although it doesn’t drastically change the movie itself, but it changes other parts in the movie to where one can notice the out of placement given.
