Imagine being stranded in the middle of an ocean for a year , with only food to eat for a short amount of time. No friends , family , phone. Any type of civilization. The name of the movie and text is “ Life Of Pi ”. The author of the book is Yann Martel and the director of the movie is Ang Lee. Life Of Pi book and the movie had many similarities and differences. In the beginning of the movie their are a lot of differences than similarities. In the middle of the movie their are a lot of similarities and in the end there are a lot of similarities than differences. First and foremost , The Life Of Pi movie and the book have more differences than similarities. In the book it says there were 124 cans of water , and in the movie there were 19 cans
Life standed on the sea is very grueling and risky. Only a few are able to face the

“The Real Story in Life of Pi The difference between fiction and reality is not always evident to those who are unable or unwilling to recognize the difference.”
Another example of the differences in the movie than the book is that in the movie, everything is much less gory than in the book. Four animals all stuck on a lifeboat together for 227 days without any food, is bound to get messy. After a while in ocean, the hyena attacks the zebra, and in the book that scene is graphically displayed how the hyena eats the zebra alive and then kills Orange Juice too. Pi is also forced to hunt despite being raised vegetarian and is even desperate enough to try and eat Richard Parker’s feces as well. The book isn’t for those with weak stomachs, but the film spares viewers all the blood and guts.
Given the amount of depth in the film Life of Pi it provides endless thought and speculation on the meaning. Because of the open ended aspect of the film it’s grown to become one of my favorable films. Although it may require some thinking and an open mind, the film is well worth watching and analyzing the meaning of
A boy lost at sea and a man captured by pirates, who knew they could be so similar? Both of these characters experience hardships, that they have to overcome. Pi is a boy from The Life of Pi who got stranded in the middle of the ocean and Phillip Ashton is a man who was captured by pirates in 1722 but escapes and waits in the Caribbean until he is saved. In the novel Life of Pi, the main character Pi is similar to the castaway Philip Ashton because they both survive tragic incidents, lose their families, and have to face serious fears every day.
A tiger with majestic air has a significant presence everywhere. In the novel Life of Pi, the protagonist is lost at sea with no one else, but a tiger named Richard Parker. Throughout this novel, the protagonist sees him with a differing perspective from the one he had of him growing up. In Blake’s work The tyger, he describes the tyger in such a way, that one would think it was a heavenly figure, not just a very large feline.Nonetheless, the qualities of the tiger exemplified in both works include the swift form of attack, terrifying prowess, and majestic strength.
Storytelling has always been popular amongst people throughout the world even before writing existed. Before writing, people would pass down stories orally or even through paintings drawn on cave walls. Today, people still tell different kinds of stories, but in entirely new ways such as novels and movies. In the novel Life of Pi by Yann Martel and in the movie Big Fish directed by Tim Burton, the truth is found not in the reality of day to day life but in the fantastical stories that the characters tell in order to make meaning of their lives and to answer unanswerable questions.
From the Life of Pi movie, it can be seen that life must go on although we face any of situation. Pi fight and adapt to the new environment. He was calm resurrected himself even lost his families love. He began self-reliance on the boat with Richard Parker. In that situation, Pi constructs a raft to occupy his time, makes an inventory and trains the tiger Richard parker. Pi find out more things and take it as a challenges in their life. He try to be the best on how situation he was on the boat. In my opinion, the different between Life of Pi movie with another movie is Life of Pi movie draws together many different elements of life, ranging from spiritual to technical elements, particularly as Pi is unable to decide on one religion, following
Yann Martel's novel (2001) and Ang Lee's film adaption (2012) of Life of Pi harbour themes such as isolation and the extent one would go to in order to survive. The story is split into two parts, the first part focuses on Piscine "Pi" Patel's background and his religious journey. Part two focuses on Pi's predicaments while he is stranded out at sea for 227 days. The second section of the story is renown for Pi's situation with a tiger named Richard Parker. Not only does the protagonist have to focus on his own survival, Pi needed to be attentive of the Bengal tiger; all whilst dealing with his loneliness. Martel and Led convey the ideas of isolation and survivability through the use of several literary and stylistic features throughout the texts.
Clearly, The Book Thief and Life of Pi show that both of the protagonists are affected by their setting because they have the same feelings though one is in WWII Germany and one is stranded at sea. Both of the protagonists are affected by their settings, because both of their settings scare and make them feel uncomfortable. In Life of Pi, The protagonist Pi is stranded at Sea with Richard Parker who is a tiger. This makes Pi feel uncomfortable, isolated, and scared for his life. He’s scared because of the tiger and also because he is stranded at sea so he doesn’t know how long he is going to able to stay alive.
Everyone makes choices in their daily lives. People make easy choices and tough choices. While making an easy choice, one of the options can be manipulated whereas while making tough choices, few things are gained and few things are lost. For instance, if a person loves his family and friends and if he has to make a choice between his family and friends, he would lose one of the options after making a choice. If the person chooses family, he will lose friends. If he chooses friends, he will lose his family. This is an example of a tough choice. Making a tough choice will always result in a loss. Therefore, one’s loss or gain depends on his/ her choice. In the novel, Life of Pi, by Yann Martel, the protagonist of the story, Pi, also makes a few choices and loses some valuable things in his life. In the novel, Pi is a sixteen year-old Indian boy stranded on a lifeboat with a Royal Bengal Tiger, Richard Parker, in the Pacific Ocean who is trying to find a way to reach the shore. Firstly, Pi loses his entire family when the ship, Tsimtsum, sinks in the ocean. This loss is a result of the choice that Pi has made because he chooses to explore the ship instead of staying with his parents and his brother. Secondly, loss that resulted from Pi’s choice is his tradition. This can be said because Pi kills a fish for food even though he does not eat meat. Thirdly, Pi loses his view of the world as a safe place. His change is seen when he tries to train the tiger. Although Pi loses
In the novel “Life of Pi” there are two characters with the same name and both of them impact Pi’s life. However, while they have a few similarities they have completely different outlooks on the world around them.
The Life of Pi, a film adaptation of the novel, is a drama and adventure movie that was released in 2012. It was directed by Ang Lee and written by Yann Martel (novel) and David Magee (screenplay). The story involves the 227 days that its teenage hero spends drifting across the Pacific in a lifeboat with a Bengal tiger. Framed narration also introduces the idea that the truth is multi-faceted. Truth manifests itself through multiple perspectives.
In order for human kind to survive the painfully realistic days of existence, a sort of belief system is direly needed. As shown through Pi Patel from Life of Pi and Chuck Noland from Cast Away, holding onto a belief of something provides one with the determination to survive the worst conditions. Both the novel and the book share the story of two castaways who depend on their belief in something to survive and conquer their respective challenges – Pi Patel who depends on his faith in religion, and Chuck Noland with his faith in returning to civilization back to his loved one. At one point, they both lose this faith that keeps them
