Kidnapped Compare And Contrast

For instance, in the book Joppy knew Albright; Albright knew Todd Carter; Todd Carter knew Richard McGee as well as Matthew Terrell whereas in the movie every character denied knowing each other except Albright and Joppy. Another noticeable difference is that in the book Frank Green, Daphne’s brother ends up murdered and in the movie he lives and they both end up moving. The third noticeable difference is a character name change from the book to the movie; Matthew Teran in the book is Matthew Terrell in the movie and he ends up being murdered in the book whereas at the end of the movie he’s running for mayor. A fourth noticeable difference is the pier scene. In the book Albright and Easy meet at the Santa Monica pier and in the movie it is the Malibu pier. And the last most noticeable difference between the book and the movie is that Mouse knows Daphne Monet or shall we call her by her real name Ruby Hanks; however, in the movie the audience never finds that out. In the movie the only true thing you get to know about Daphne is that she is both black and white. Therefore, due to the many differences between the book and the movie it is confusing to the audience since it is almost like dealing with two different stories because of the plot inconsistencies.

Picture this, Davie standing there, defenseless, a man pulling a gun out, ready to shoot him. Suddenly there is a gunshot from the bushes and a bullet bounces at the mans feet. Alan and Davie start to run. The man chases them and soon there is another gunshot from the bushes, and the man has been shot in the back. Everyone starts to run… This a scene that the movie Kidnapped by Robert Louis Stevenson contains and the book does not.. The movie contains many different setting changes which makes it both similar and different to the book Due to the movie containing details that the book lacked, the movie Kidnapped is better than the book.

The 3 major differences that were seen are the shattering of the conch, the pilot’s presence, and Ralph’s attitude towards Piggy. Due to these major differences the novel left a greater impact on its readers than the movie on its viewers. Seeing the movie and as well reading the book, personally the book was a better. The book has a very different approach of that showed these 3 major differences to their full extent. Out of the two though, I would choose the book as more pleasant and

The book and the film were both simular, and yet different in many ways. An example would be, in the film, Ponyboy was walking to the drive-in and meeting Cherri and Marcia. Although in the book, Ponyboy began his journey by telling the readers about his experience about being jumped by the Socs and being threatened. The director probably had some options to pick from to leave out from the movie, and the director chosed this to leave out. Leaving out the part where Ponyboy was jumped was an effective move because without the experience Ponyboy was lost and helpless because he did not know what to do when he and Johnny got cornered in the park by Bob and other Socs.

One way the book is different is the way Dave Isay play a major part in the kids live in the movie so you see the impact he has on them and the up and down with the documentary Ghetto Life 101. You don’t see that with the book because you only get Dave Isay point of view on the five pages unlike the movie where he in their live constantly. Also the part where Lloyd the part when Lloyd got beat up when his father cheated in a game of pool. That

Between the movie Kidnapped and the book Kidnapped there are three major differences and three major similarities. The first scene of the movie does not occur in the book. In this scene Davie’s father dies. However the novel starts with Davie on his way to the house of Shaws. I felt more sadness reading about Davie’s father dying than watching it. Also the movie leaves out multiple chapters. For example, when Davie is walking to the house of Shaws in the book it takes him a very long time and he meets people along the way. But in the film it doesn't even take him a minute. Finally is that the movie leaves out some major characters like Mr. Riach. Mr. Riach shows that not everybody on the Covenant was horrible. He helps Davie feel better about his situation being kidnapped.

One difference was that in the beginning of the movie, a tree fell on Davie’s dad. A few days later, his dad died. In the novel, Davie’s dad had already been dead. This added excitement to the movie, and grabbed in the viewer. One more difference was when Davie was on his way to the house of

Throughout the story you can see some major differences between the film, and the book. some major differences I found were different between F. Scott

In addition the movie had some breathtaking moments that the book didn’t have and the book had some surprising events the movie didn’t have. In other words, the differences and similarities changes any interpretations on how the plot is carried out in the book and the movie. The movie is better because of how it clearly combines the characters and the setting which creates an astonishing plot. The connections and inequalities between the book and the movie can open anyone’s perspectives on how to interpret the story of Kidnapped.

I’m going to compare and contrast the Movie and the book to one another. Some things I would be comparing and contrasting would be sense that aren’t in the book and that are in the movie and the same thing but flliped and conflicts that are in the book but in the the movie.

Some of the differences in these Kidnapped stories are when David and Ransome carry David´s Uncle Ebenezer on a stretcher towards The Covenant to meet Captain Hoseason. This scene happens in the movie, however in the book Ransome leads Uncle Ebenezer, who is walking on his own, and David to The Covenant to meet Captain Hoseason. In the book, Ransome comes the day after Uncle Ebenezer is in trouble and needs medicine. This difference is important considering that in the book, Davie and Ransome get to know each other mostly on the boat, however in the movie, their walk together while carrying Uncle Ebenezer is mostly their chance to bond. Another difference between the book and the movie is that, they left out a whole scene from the book in the movie.

For example, in the beginning of the book, in the part where Adam eavesdrops on the conversation between Adam’s mother, and some mysterious other character, which ends up being his aunt, does not even occur in the movie. This is significant, because just like leaving some character background information, removes some of the reason for Adams curiousness. One other essential difference between the two, is found in the portrayal of Adam’s thoughts. In the book, the reader can get an insight into Adam’s thoughts through his flashbacks, and during the bike ride, when he is talking in his head. The movie however, is not able to portray this aspect of Adam very clearly if at all, and therefore, some of Adam’s thoughts and feelings are unknown to the audience.

The third reason for the book being better than the movie was because the movie had changed so many parts in the movie that weren't in the book.. And also the movie had changed a multiplicity of parts, such as when David dropped his compass in the water. In the movie David had rolled down a hill and broken the compass. Another thing that the movie changed is when David is on the ship heading to Italy the man, David met had agreed not to turn him in for his pocket knife. In the book the man didn't turn him in because he didn't want to get in

For differences in the beginning of the movie they show you how Alexander campbell died. This changed my overall look on kidnapped since now I knew how Davie’s father died and how it affected the feeling you get in the beginning of the book this is since you know what Davie has gone through and know what he is going through. One similarity that the novel and the movie have in common is that Davie walks up the stairs to get his uncle Ebenezer’s papers and then he trips and the only slight difference is that in the movie Davie falls and in the novel he almost falls. This is a very important aspect to the whole story because it gives you a feeling that Ebenezer is up to something sending his dear nephew upstairs so that he may get hurt. One other difference is that in the novel it took davie months to get to the house of shaws but in the movie it only took him like two minutes. This affects my opinion greatly because on Davie’s way to the House of shaws you really got to know more about him and that makes you understand the story more fully. My final similarity is that in both the novel and the movie Uncle Ebenezer sold Davie to Captain Hoseason so he would take him to Carolina as a slave. This is greatly important because now you know that Ebenezer doesn’t like Davie even though he is his uncle and you start to realize

There are many differences and similarities between the book and movie. One similarity is that In the book and the movie Alan said he loved Davie like a brother; This means that after killing the red fox and running from getting killed
