The two characters I decided to talk about are Eckels from A Sound of Thunder and the Narrator from The Scarlet Ibis. Even though these two characters are in very different situations, have very different conflicts, and are very different from each other, these two characters still have some interesting similarities. And Even though they do have some similarities to each other they show them in complete different ways from each other.
The characters are similar; however, they are built entirely different. In the stories you can see that their background shows who they are and what type of person they are.

Overall they both share a theme of expressing feelings and speaking truthfully. Neither characters held anything back and just let their emotions
Besides sound effects and visuals in a movie, descriptive language in a book, both are usually very similar. Specifically, between the book and the movie Fahrenheit 451, the two share many of the main ideas, but have multiple differences. A couple of the top major differences in the movie are that Clarisse doesn’t die and they omit to tell or mention that there is a war going on. Some similarities are the characters personalities and looks. All of these things have impact on how the movie and book contrast and compare to each other.
Moreover, in the book George is shown to really hate Curley, whereas in the movie, George doesn’t seem to like Curley too much but he definitely doesn’t hate him. Apart from these characters, all the others are pretty much very similar in both the book and the movie.

The theatrical play of ‘The Taming of the Shrew’ (1594) and the live action film ’10 Things I Hate About You’ (1999) are clearly similar in many ways (as the drama film is a modern adaptation of the classic Shakespearean text), these similarities can be recognized through themes which point out scenes, quotes and/or effects both text types share with each other. Themes include, Gender Politics/Roles, Romantic Relationships and Social Hierarchy (social status/class). The themes of Gender Politics and Social Hierarchy support the precisely represented similarities both text types share, highlighting the enduring provenance of these concerns over time.
Strong comparisons can be made from the main characters in Of Mice and Men and the two antagonist characters in the Criminal Minds episode To Hell...and Back. The two main characters in Of Mice and Men are George and Lennie, who have a very old and long friendship. George, who is described as
Therefore, Coppola elected to change the character, the only similarity between the two being that they are both normal people amongst lunatics, and are both outsiders - Marlow never fits in with the corrupt and immoral Company, and Willard does not play by the usual army rules (both characters are uncannily similar to Kurtz in that respect).
Through intertextual relationships, detecting the significant differences and transformations between William Shakespeare's play Taming of The Shrew, and Ten Things I Hate About You, a contemporary hollywood film directed by Gil Junger enriches our understandings towards cultural issues through feminist attitudes, social hierarchy and the transformation in sentiments towards love and marriage. Both texts exert compelling issues through different techniques to proclaim to the audience that women during the 16th century were seen as obsequious, however Ten Things I Hate About You, an allusion of Taming of the Shrew, enriches our understanding of these gender role issues by proclaiming that we must reject blatant consumerism. Among this, issues of class and love are explored, and through a historical reading I was able to depict the changes in values and cultures between the production of both texts.
When the same person features in the literature of two different stories written by the same author, they often show differences between behavior and description.
People can look alike, yet be very different. One of the best examples from literature of people who look almost alike, but are very different are Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton from “A Tale of Two Cities” by Charles Dickens. Although Sydney Carton looks nothing but a worthless person than Charles Darnay, as the book progresses, Carton seems to be changing.
The Taming of the Shrew and 10 Things I Hate about You are romantic comedies. Even though they are written 400 years apart, they have many similarities. The many similarities are because 10 Things I Hate About You was loosely based on The Taming of the Shrew. However, there are some differences in some of the characters. One character that stands out from both, The Taming of the Shrew and 10 Things I Hate About You, is Katherine and Katarina. Both characters do not care what others think about them and both act like they do not like their men when they really do. Although there are many comparisons, there are also a few differences. One major difference is that they both play a different role in the taming sequence.
