Compare And Contrast Jurassic Park Book Vs Movie

Comparing the book to the movie you can clearly tell what certain things are different. For example, Sydelle Pulaski worked for Mr. Westing in the movie but only talked over the intercom. This not only caused a lot of drama but more depth to the plot. Also, Crow didn’t go to jail but they did talk about most of the consequences of her going to jail. This made a little bit more serious and emotional instead of just letting it go.

I like the book better than the movie. I like the book better because I could decide what a scene would look like. For example, in the book, it describes True Son. It says, “The boy wore a brand-new calico hunting shirt. It covered the boy’s upper parts and halfway down his leggings. His hair was black and his face and arms brown as an Indian, but you couldn’t mistake the English cast of his features.” I could make up in my mind how I wanted True Son to look. In the movie, I saw what was on the screen, and couldn’t make the scene look how I wanted it

his meal. The man recognized the tail and shot the monkey, so he could retrieve

The movie version and short story version of “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty” are very different. The plot of the short story is bland and unclear. The last sentence of the short story, “Then, with that faint, fleeting smile playing around his lips, he faced the firing squad; erect and motionless, proud and disdainful, Walter Mitty the Undefeated, inscrutable to the last.”, ends in a daydream leaving the reader feeling confused as to what should happen next. This proves how the author doesn't really give a clear ending to the short story. On the other hand, the movie had a clear ending and conclusion. The movie ends with Walter going on a date with Sherrill (which he liked), that ultimately lead him to do something adventurous which ends his terrible daydreams. As you can tell the movie has a clear ending and solution to the problem. The movie really exaggerates his bland life and boring job. For example, Walter says in the movie “I haven't really been anywhere noteworthy or mentionable.” The movie also had more action, but the movie was longer so that’s to be expected. Overall

One of the major reasons Walter Mitty has severe daydreams is because his wife degrades everything he does.

If it has the same title surely it can’t be a different story, right? The movie should be respectful and pay homage to the original work.

"The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" appears to be a simple story of old Walter Mitty going on a trip into town with his controlling wife, Mrs. Mitty. Walter is incompetent at many things and forgets things easily. His imagination is what makes him special.

Written by James Thurber, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, is the story of Walter Mitty’s day in the city daydreaming of many scenarios of him being a hero and having power and fame. Between each of his daydreams, he is interrupted repeatedly by the real life in a rude fashion by his wife and other characters in the city, ending his daydreams. In The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, many interpret that many of the supporting characters look down on Walter Mitty. In his daydreams, Mr. Mitty is seen as being superior to others and well respected by people, showing him to be dominant over all other characters both in his daydreams and the real life.

The whole story depicts how Walter changed from a man who knows what he wants but lacks the drive and determination to a man who brings courage to bear challenges in life.

Overall, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is a good inspirational movie that is easy to understand. Personally, I would like to recommend this movie to the people who are lack of determination and spirit so that they can go beyond far from what themselves are at this
