High Noon Compare And Contrast

Whenever a movie based on a book is produced, similarities must exist. It is crucial that there is correlation throughout the plot of both works in order for the story to be told. One example of a similarity between the plot of both versions of The Most Dangerous Game is that Rainsford and Zaroff were both experienced hunters. Zaroff had hunted all kinds of prey all over the world, and Rainsford was famous for his books on hunting. This made Zaroff’s hunt more enjoyable and Rainsford’s fight for his life more terrifying. Also, in both the movie and short story, Zaroff used dogs to hunt Rainsford. This illustrates that Zaroff did not exactly play fair in the story or the movie. Likewise, there are also major comparisons between the resolution of the literary work and the resolution of the motion picture. For example, in both endings, Rainsford was victorious. He was the first person to

The two text are similar for various reasons. They are generally similar because they both have someone attempting to deny or rebel against society or government and they both get are unsuccessful and killed in the end. As seen in Harrison Bergeron this conflict occurs when Harrison

There are similarities of plot between both stories, for example, both of the men are soldiers at war. As an example “On a rooftop near O’Connell Bridge, a republican sniper lay watching”

For my at home movie I watched Hang em’ High directed by Ted Post. It is considered a spaghetti western that was made in America. In comparison to the film we watched in class, High Noon directed by Fred Zinnemann. These two westerns had many similarities and differences. From differences in how the movie was actually shot, to the similarity of how both of the main characters are loners, these two movies connect all over on many different levels.

Overall, these are two great stories that give the reader a better idea of what war can and most likely will do to a person. Although there are differences, the similarities are

The only difference is that one setting is in the middle of the ocean and the other setting is in the middle of the desert. "Bleak darkness was blacking out the sea and the jungle when Rainsford sighted the lights" (Connell 215). In "The Most Dangerous Game", the setting takes place in an island and it is surrounded by just pure ocean. If Rainsford tried to escape there would be no where to go but back to the island. "Street from Kane's point of view. It is completely deserted" (Forman 326). In the middle of the desert is complete isolation. The place where the story takes place is nothing like where we live. There is one, maybe two roads in High Noon and they are strictly for either coming to or leaving the town which is in the middle of nowhere. The only thing different about the two setting are what is around them. Both settings in both stories are trying to put out the same concept which is there is no where to go but stay where you

A very important similarity between the stories, is that they both are in the view point of a Union soldier in the nineteenth century, during the civil war. The similarities between these two books combine the ideals of battle and war, also the resemblances show how alike the two protagonists of the stories are.

In High Noon, the theme was stand up for yourself don't run. Kane showed us this by saying "'It's not good. I've got to go back Amy'" (Foreman 316). This quote is showing us that Kane is going back to town to fight off the vigilantes. This sets you up for the rest of the movie, as Kane stays in town to fight the four men. Kane also said he never ran from anyone or anything in his life, so he went back to town for deputies. He soon realized nobody from the town was going to help him, because Frank was a very scary and bad person. Kane with help from his wife Amy were able to kill all four men and leave the town. During "The Most Dangerous Game", Whitney and Rainsford were discussing hunting. Rainsford said "'The best sport in the world'", but Whitney said "'For the hunter. Not for the jaguar'" (Connell). This quote explained the theme that it's better to be a hunter than to be hunted. In the beginning of the story, Rainsford is the hunter who hunts animals. He believes that animals don't have feelings, but was stuck on the island forced to play Zaroff's game. This lead to Rainsford becoming the hunted. He quickly realized that animals have feelings when they're being hunted. Like Kane, Rainsford was very scared, but the overall message of the stories is different. Although both stories are very similar, the overall message of both stories is very

But when utilized correctly, it can help someone extremely. "The Most Dangerous Game" tends to swap out between man vs man and man vs nature. This leads to some virulent scenes when Rainsford runs into an enemy even more poisonous than Zaroff, mother nature. When man vs nature is used in such a way, the conflict can steer the story so drastically in no less than a page and if given thought, one would find this usage of the conflict ridiculous. The story uses the conflict four major times, either drastically helping or nearly killing Rainsford. A clear example of Rainsford having a near death experience is when he accidentally steps into quicksand and as the author describes, “He tried to wrench it back, but the muck sucked viciously at his foot as if it were a giant leech”(12). Even when Rainsford is trying his very best to escape Zaroff, he nearly falls into death’s grip. But Rainsford eventually utilized the double sided sword to cripple

When you watch the movie High Noon, and read the story "The Most Dangerous Game" you may not see many similarities or differences when you first read, or watch. But you might start to put the puzzle pieces together when you watch a second time or begin to think about what's the same or different about them. One of the main similarities in both stories is that the main characters are outnumbered by their enemies. This is a reoccurring theme in both. In High Noon, there are four bad guys coming to town to take their revenge on Will Kane. In "The Most Dangerous Game" Rainsford is hunted by Ivan, general Zaroff, and his pack of dogs. Another similarity I spotted was when both characters needed help the most there was no one who was brave enough to help them. One of the major differences between them was they both had different settings, and move at a different pace. However this helps build the stories. Both stories have their own way of building suspense. Each of these stories take showing the theme and differences to a whole new level

Whether it is action filled or suspenseful, they want a stimulating plot that makes them feel good.

Both of these people are fighting for survival, but they cannot get help in one way or another because they are alone figuratively and physically; the setting is also similar yet nothing alike.

The two men, both hide the corpses in the structures of the homes. Likewise, the narrators try to defend their sanity by logically justifying their horrific actions based on their mental states throughout the flashbacks of the events.
