Comparison of Alice in Wonderland Book and Movie Alice's Adventures in Wonderland written by Lewis Caroll was originally published on November 26, 1865. On the other hand, the movie version, directed by Clyde Geronimo, Wilfred Jackson, and Hamilton Luske and produced by Walt Disney, was published in 1951. Carroll's book has twelve chapters and begins by describing a girl who named Alice that falls down a hole and finds herself in wonderland. In comparison, the movie begins with a scene not included in the book in which Alice sings about “her world,” foreshadowing wonderland. In the beginning, the versions are similar. Alice follows the rabbit because she is bored with her sister who only wants to read books with pictures. When she follows the rabbit, Alice finds herself in a different world. The difference is that in the book when Alice comes to the place, she finds the rabbit and follows him until she sees many doors. In the movie, however, the door talks to her instead. In the movie Mrs. Doorknob never appears, but the door has magic and gives her a potion bottle and box on the table. Conversely, in the book the bottle and box are already there. Because she didn’t see the two things, they appear after she talks to the door and he works his magic, and she drinks the potion to become smaller so she can enter the door. In the second chapter, there are several differences. In the book Alice feels so desperate that she was ready to ask help from
C.S. Lewis's story, the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe has many movies and a book about it. Not all of them are exactly alike the other but they have many similarities. The book and the newest movie is probably the closest to each other
Many movies come from a lot of books. This happened to the book “The Outsiders” in 1983. The book and movies have similar events, yet you will notice some, if not many differences. The differences include characters, events, and details. The intros of the book and movie are different.
Latin America as we know it today has undergone many changes throughout history. The beginning for this time of change was 1808. Spain, the country most widely responsible for the colonization of Latin America, was in trouble with France’s master of conquest, Napoleon Bonaparte. Napolien overthrew the King of Spain and replaced him with his brother, Joseph Bonaparte. The repercusions of this evet rolled through Latin America and primed the atmosphere for revolution. The colonial people of Latin America had no loyalty to the new Jing Joseph. This lack of respect for the new
In 1862, floating upon the river Isis, Charles Dodgson narrated for Alice Liddell and a few others in company his original tale of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Gliding along underneath the blue sky, Dodgson wove his words into one of the most classic children stories of all time. Thesis: Although Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland may have only begun as a children’s story, many adults have sought to discover the “true meaning” of the novel. Curiosity has led to years of searching and interpretation of the origins of Carroll’s novels, and the symbols inside, developing into theories ranging from practical to nearly impossible, eventually evolving into their own stories in the film industry.
Reader often compare stories that could lead about human nature. The Lord of the flies and Alice wonderland are trapped in a reality and a fantasy nightmare dream. The Lord of the flies and Alice Wonderland prove that finding a way to escape even if it’s a hard course it better than nothing.
Harry Hook did an amazing job of producing the movie “Lord of the Flies” though not a lot of people enjoyed it as much as William Golding’s book. The novel was published in 1954 when the movie was first released the year of 1990. But, the movie had so many amazing details you didn’t want to miss, it was fascinating to watch as well. On the other hand, the book had many action and meaning to it. For me, both the movie and book were captivating, however, some parts were completely different. Before I start talking about the differences of the award-winning novel and the movie, it is evident that in the book the kids were all English schoolboys, but in the film, the boys appeared to be

"Like everyone else, my remembrances of childhood contain hazy memories of Atreyu doing battle with Gmork, and a young Barrett Oliver as Bastian yelling ""I will do what I dream!"" So, in a mood to reaffirm my youthful fantasies, I picked up a copy of Michael Ende's 1979 novel upon which the movie was loosely based, ""The Neverending Story"". I was not surprised that the largely dark tone of the movie was, of course, much darker, deeper and much more sustained in the novel. But I am not here to compare the book to the movie, both of which are classics in their own right. Like the best of what is considered children's literature, ""The Neverending Story"" has an appeal and a depth that literally begs for continued readings as one grows older. A novel about growth, maturity, the power (fraught as it is) of imagination, and the necessity of books to provide us with different perspectives on our world, ""The Neverending Story"" is a challenging children's novel which respects its readers enough to not treat them like children.
The movie I am comparing to Alice Through the Looking Glass is Pirates of the Caribbean Black Pearl. Alice was trying to save her friend and his parents. In Black Pearl, Jack Sparrow tried to be captain again of the Black Pearl ship. I chose Black Pearl because it seemed alike in many ways and they have their differences.
Carroll first published Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland in 1865, three years after he had first told the story to the young girl Alice Liddell and her sisters,
Tyler Jones ½ 11/30/17 Return address Tyler Jones 2502 70th Ave SE Washington, 98040 Dear, J.K. Rowling LAL Writing After Reading your book, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s stone I began to realize all the strange things that happen in life, such as a roof creaking when no one is nearby it, but you can still hear it creaking and it's weird. I am similar to harry in the sense that I can be very quiet if I want to and harry is most of the time. Harry relates to me because weird things happen to him, some weird things also happen to me such as, if I think long enough I can see a brief picture of a future and sometimes that future actually comes true and its weird and I’m like whoa! That actually happened? And when Harry was at the zoo, he removed

The fantasy film adaption of Lewis Carroll’s original novel ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland’ was directed by Tim Burton and produced in 2010. The visually engaging version of Alice’s quirky adventures is comprised of many vivid mise-en-scene effects in the dynamic scene where Alice slays the Jabberwocky. These vast arrays of elements include colour, lighting, set design, props, makeup, creative costumes and sound effects.
Lewis Carroll's Wonderland is a queer little universe where a not so ordinary girl is faced with the contradicting nature of the fantastic creatures who live there. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is a child's struggle to survive in the condescending world of adults. The conflict between child and adult gives direction to Alice's adventures and controls all the outstanding features of the work- Alice's character, her relationship with other characters, and the dialogue. " Alice in Wonderland is on one hand so nonsensical that children sometimes feel ashamed to have been interested in anything so silly (Masslich 107)."
The director, Tim Burton, uses Alice in Wonderland and Edward Scissorhands to reveal his signature storytelling style of contrasting the Iindividual againstversus society.This is shown through the plot of the two films as well as the characters of Alice and Edward, and the setting of Wonderland versus London and Edwards castle vs the town. The director's purpose was to reveal the idea that when people are placed in a different surrounding and situation it can be confusing, and they need help to understand it.
