On watching the movie I won 't imagine anything but simply I see and enjoy. The film gives as real world experience, so there is no necessity for imagining things. Also, the story that is given in the novel will always be different than watching it in the movie. Moreover, I think that the novel describes the real nature of things while the movie has the sense of commerciality to make it interesting and earn money.

I have a personal experience about the main plot of the story, my friend Farah wants to be a doctor, but when she enters the college she realizes that she can’t see a lot of blood, so she decided to leave her college.

The book shows more examples of this theme than the movie, making the novel more understanding to other individuals than the film itself. Because of this, we would recommend the book and film to those who experience a likeliness to the conflicts in each storyline, such as a fight between two different social

    Many people, if asked what they would prefer, would prefer to read the book instead of watching the movie. It could be because the movie will always leave some parts from the story out. It seems like directors of the movie always leave out parts from the book, only incorporating the important parts from the story. Some also say that they prefer to leave the descriptions of things in the book up to their imagination.
