In this book I will be explaining the differences the similarities and the conclusion. The differences are not big differences but differences that need to be seen. The book and the movie that I will be comparing are Where the Red Fern Grows published in 1961 and the movie which was out in 1974. They did some changes that probably had to be made to fit the time limit, so it wasn’t to long.I don’t know what the other movie which was published in 2003 is the newest one made. My reading class watched the 1974 version. And I am going to tell you about the differences.
The biggest similarity between the book, and the movie is the theme. The theme in both the book, and the
The novel and the movie share many similarities.The book and the novel share the same problems. A example johnny and pony run away since johnny killed bob.In both johnny gets injured badly and dies.
It’s not difficult to figure out that almost every book with a movie made from the book will have some differences and some similarities. I can almost promise anyone that they will probably never find a book with a movie that is the exact same. This essay will point out some differences and similarities between the book and the movie “Ordinary People”.
A picture is worth a thousand words, that’s the common theme that is increasingly true in our world today. Many movie adaptations of great classic stories and literature works have been created with great visuals. Question is, do the adaptations really carry the same meaning and weight of the original written works or are the adaptions meant to open new perspectives for the audiences? This paper will, through the examining the settings, character, tone and storylines, compare and contrast the book version and movie adaptation of the classic short story " Bartleby, the Scrivener: A Story of Wall Street " by Herman Melville.
Film and literature are two media forms that are so closely related, that we often forget there is a distinction between them. We often just view the movie as an extension of the book because most movies are based on novels or short stories. Because we are accustomed to this sequence of production, first the novel, then the motion picture, we often find ourselves making value judgments about a movie, based upon our feelings on the novel. It is this overlapping of the creative processes that prevents us from seeing movies as distinct and separate art forms from the novels they are based on.
Some similarities are, one, the characters are the same. Winnie foster,in the movie and the book still kept her same name, her feelings about wanting to leave. In the book on page 13 it says , “Winnie Foster sat on the bristly grass just outside the fence” showing that her name is the same. Another similarity is, Mae Tuck hits the man in the yellow over the head with the rifle. In the movie it shows Mae Tuck hitting the man in the yellow suit
There are other significant similarities between the movie and the book, so if I overlooked or forgot any extremely crucial points, forgive me.
The purpose of this essay is to analyse the original drama text with a newer film version, while comparing the
Finally, the other similarity I discovered was when Johnny killed Bob. In the book, they went to where Dally was and Dally helped them by giving them his gun, jacket and money. Dally also told them where to hide and how to get there. (Hinton 53-56). The movie also portrays this scene very well. Again, this is only one of the many similarities in the book and movie.
Although this paper uses a mainstream movie, at all times you should use scholarly writing and language throughout the paper.
Whenever books are adapted for film, changes inevitably have to be made. The medium of film offers several advantages and disadvantages over the book: it is not as adept at exploring the inner workings of people - it cannot explore their minds so easily; however, the added visual and audio capabilities of film open whole new areas of the imagination which, in the hands of a competent writer-director, can more than compensate.
Many time in our lives, we have seen the transformation of novels into movies. Some of them are equal to the novel, few are superior, and most are inferior. Why is this? Why is it that a story that was surely to be one of the best written stories ever, could turn out to be Hollywood flops? One reason is that in many transformations, the main characters are changed, some the way they look, others the way they act. On top of this, scenes are cut out and plot is even changed. In this essay, I will discuss some of the changes made to the characters of the Maltese Falcon as they make their transformation to the ?big screen.?
Children today have access to many forms of literature, some of which are books made into movies. As the children become older, comments such as “the book was way better” or “the movie didn’t even come close to matching the book” or “the movie and book are the exact same, so save time and just watch the movie” are heard once children begin to make connections between the book and the film. It is important to me, as a future teacher, to be able to address such comments from my students and, in turn, help them understand why and how movies can either help or hinder the book’s original value and message. To help me prepare, I will compare a children’s film to the literary work that came from it.
The secret of NIMH uses Sergei Eisenstein’s theory of montage in many scenes too both advance the plot and continue most of its ongoing themes. The plot of the secret of NIMH is that Mrs. Jonathan Brisby goes on a quest to save her family from the plough of the farmer that is soon to come. Along the way she is pointed towards the rats of NIMH who have been experimented on and have consequently become intelligent and as such they want to become self reliant and stop stealing from the farm. At this point Nicodemus reveals that Mrs. Brisby's late husband, Mr. Jonathan Brisby, along with the rats, was a part of a series of experiments at a place known only as N. I. M.
