City Of Ember: Comparing The Book And Film

There are many of the same people like Turtle, Angela, Grace, Hoo, Otis Amber, and Berthe Erica Crow. Also the money is both in the 2’s of millions like 20 and 200. Mr. Hoo still owns a Chinese restaurant that does very poorly. Also Berthe Erica Crow is still partnered with Otis Amber, and they still own the Good Salvation Soup Kitchen. As always Turtle still wins the Westing Game. That’s just a small list of what the similarities are between the book and movie.

In the short video “Death by Fire” we learn of the story of Todd Willingham. We are presented with facts about a fire, which killed Willingham’s three children, which ultimately sent him to his death. The case begins in the small town of Corsicana, Texas. On December 13, 1991 Todd Willingham’s home was ablaze and his children were trapped inside. Neighbors say they witnessed Willingham outside, on the front porch screaming for his children and screaming for help. As the fire raged, firefighters arrived on the scene and were able to pull one of the children out of the home. Unfortunately all of the children died due to injuries they sustained in the fire. While the fire raged in the house Todd’s wife Stacy was out Christmas shopping and was unharmed. The attitude of Todd after the fire began to raise question with those who were close to him and also with investigators. The night after the fire, a local bar had a benefit to raise money for Todd’s family to help pay for the costs they would soon face. Many say that Todd became too involved with the festivities and seemed like he did not care his kids had just died. They say that Todd was bragging about how money would begin to roll in because people would feel bad for him. Having seen these things, investigators immediately labeled Todd as their prime suspect.

There are many similarities and some minor differences between the movie, directed by Claude Chabrol, and the short story it is based off of, written by Guy de Maupassant. The plot, setting, and characters are all highly similar in both the story and the film. In both, the plot follows the same scheme, it is set in Paris in the 1880’s, and all of the main characters are the same. The major difference that stood out to me is how these aspects are displayed at the beginning of the narrative.

Do you like mysterious books? If you do, then The City of Ember is the book for you. The City of Ember is about a girl and a boy named Lina and Doon who were not friends at first, but then became best friends. Then they found a set of instructions to get out of Ember and figure the the words out because their city was dying. After, they find a huge room full of boats to ride down the river to get out of Ember. At the end they get out of Ember. First I thought that The City of Ember was about saving the city, now I know it’s way more than that. I now know that the novel is about using teamwork to accomplish goals. Lina and Doon exhibit teamwork throughout the novel because they worked together through the whole book to accomplish a goal by figuring out the words to the instructions and finding all the boats and saving the people of Ember.

World War II-one of the most devastating events in history that will always be remembered whether by textbooks, personal accounts, or merely just stories about how one man could have done the impossible: conquered the world. As students today and future generations learn about the War, they are exposed to the battles, leaders, political parties, heroes, and turmoil of this period; however, important events that often were overshadowed are slowly becoming forgotten and neglected. Robert Edsel, in his book The Monuments Men, tells the story of the “greatest treasure hunt in history” and the race to sa

The plot and the setting of book and movie are very similar. There was a lot of thins borrowed from the book, but there was a lot changed as well. The movie followed the plot of book very closely and portrayed the setting of the book very well. A lot of the dialogue was borrowed and spoken directly as it was in the book.

The book Ordinary People was told in the perspective of a depressed teenage boy and his father. The theme of the story is that things happen but it’s not always your fault. Conrad has survival guilt. He feels like it’s his fault that Jordan died, so he takes it out on himself. Calvin feels responsible for Conrad's accident. The book and the movie have a lot of similarities and differences.

     One might believe that because capital punishment plays such a large role in Charles Dickens’ A Tale Of Two Cities, that Dickens himself is a supporter of it. This just simply is not true. Dickens uses capitol punishment as a tool to define the evil embodied in both the French ruling class, and the opposing lower class during the French Revolution; as well as comment on the sheep-like nature of humankind.

The biggest similarities in Luhrmann’s movie are the language used and the plot. The language for Luhrmann's movie is almost identical to the book. The language gave the movie a more traditional feeling. The plot for Luhrmann's movie was very similar to the book. The plot seems like it was taken right out of the book and used for the movie. Although the similarities are great, the differences are much bigger.

A Tale of Two Cities Jarvis Lorry, an employee of Tellson's Bank, was sent to find Dr. Manette, an unjustly imprisoned physician, in Paris and bring him back to England. Lucie, Manette's daughter who thought that he was dead, accompanied Mr. Lorry. Upon arriving at Defarge's wine shop in Paris, they found Mr. Manette in a dreadful state and took him back to London with them. Mr. Manette could not rember why he had been imprisoned, or when he was imprisoned. He was in a state of Post Tramatic Stress Dis-order.

Dr. Manette does not have as prominent of a role in the movie as the book, as well as Lorry and Jerry Cruncher.
