Movie Review: The Giver By Lois Lowry

This essay is about comparing the Giver book and movie. The Giver is a story about a boy named Jonas who was chosen to be the community’s next Receiver of Memory. He lived in a community where everything was chosen for the citizens, and everything was perfect. During Jonas' training, he realized that the community was missing something and that there was more in the world. Jonas wanted the everybody to know that. The Giver book was then made into a movie. Though the two were based on the same story, there are three important differences that could've made them two separate stories. The three main differences between the book and the movie are Asher and Fiona's Assignments, the similarity all Receivers had and the Chief Elder's role.

     Jonas is helping his family take care of a problem newborn. His name is Gabriel, he had problems sleeping at the Nurturing Center. Jonas helps Gabriel sleep by transmitting memories to Gabriel. They become really close. Jonas finds out that Gabriel is in danger of being released. He talks to The Giver and finds out that release means the same thing as death. Jonas gets really mad knowing that his father killed the babies. That was his father’s job. Jonas wants to create a plan to change the community forever.

Jonas lives with his parents and one sister. His parents were allowed to have only two children, a boy and a girl. It was one of the many community rules that couldn’t be broken.

Jonas starts out with a very low understanding of what it means to be mature. He has no knowledge of pain, love, or any other emotion. He proves this by acting like a normal child. He plays with his friends after volunteer hours. He attends school on a regular basis. Jonas is a stickler for the rules. He has been told that it is wrong to not follow rules and that there

In conclusion, the main character Jonas, displays the character traits,_______________,____________, and ____________. In the novel, Jonas shows he is a positive character, and has important abilities to see beyond. He is important to the community for becoming the receiver in training, a job of which he will hold memories from the past. The job is difficult and jonas goes through many hardships, leaving him to make choices thrating his “perfect” society. Lois Lowry shows the reader that a utopian society is hard to come by and not

The characters are Johnas who was the novel's protagonist, he is an intelligent and courageous boy with the Capacity to See Beyond. Gabriel who becomes a lively, inquisitive toddler, and Jonas discovers that he is also able to receive memories. The Giver took more years than Jonas to realize the necessity for action and change in their society, and by the end of the novel, his experiences with Jonas cause him to realize that he can help

In the novel The Giver by Lois Lowry, Jonas was always a good boy until he realized that something weird was going on. He always followed the rules in the beginning but toward the end he stole, lied, and threw away his pills. In their world everything was the same,no one had ever had memories but when he became the receiver Jonas received memories and gave them to the society. Throughout the novel, Jonas moves from a rule follower to a bad bad boy.

Imagine walking down the start and you see an old lady getting robbed and a heroic man saves her purse. This heroic quality is seen in Jonas from The Giver and Brady from Red Kayak. These boys seem quite similar, yet they are actual very different. Both boys get qualities from their experiences in their separate lives.

The Giver book was about how Jonas was selected to be the Receiver of Memory, which requires hard and painful training. Between The Giver book and movie, there were many differences. The Assignments were not the same. There were many differences on the memory topic and many of the things are paired with the idea that everything is futuristic. The book and movie have their own qualities, so they are both excellent works of media.

Me and the protagonist in the book “The Giver” Jonas have many similarities. First of all me and Jonas are both under the age of thirteen as stated on page 12 when he is nervous about his 12th ceremony. Next, we both are rule followers. Jonas has shown this various times in the story and in many of his memories. For example, on pages 1-3 Jonas has memories of an aircraft flying over his community and how frightened he was. Me and Jonas both don't have many friends. Jonas shows this in the story by only mentioning one person outside his family, a kid named Asher. While me and Jonas have many similarities we also have differences.

To begin, the elders set apart Jonas and give him the prestigious job of “Receiver of Memory.”

Also it shows that the giver is very lonely holding the memories and thinks that memories should be shared with the people and everyone. It also shows that Jonas has enough courage to run away, but is sad to leave his new friend behind. From this sentence from the book, it shows that the giver and Jonas are going to change how the community, thinks and feels. So Jonas’s main personality trait in the book The Giver is Courage.

The Giver is a book about a boy named Jonas and he was chosen to be the next receiver of memory. Three big differences were when Jonas fell in love with Fiona, Jonas and Gabriel being the only ones that had blue eyes, and at the end of the movie they found a home and walked towards it. The book was better because there were more details and more surprises. In the book, Jonas developed feelings for Fiona.

The Giver is the story of a society with no color and little emotion, everyone is the same except for a certain few. There are some people that can see colors, feel true love, and have memories of a world that is in every meaning of the word, different. However, these people are kept somewhat secret, because if the world could know of such "difference", it would be chaos. However, while they are kept somewhat of a secret, they are also held at a very high status, and it is an honor to be chosen to be the next Giver. This story follows a young boy named Jonas, who has been chosen to be the new giver, and his experience going under training to become the new Giver. He finds it extremely frightening as his eyes begin to open to all

Have you ever watched a film version of a book, expecting it to be exactly like the book, but it ends up being totally different? The film, The Giver, which is based on the book by Lois Lowry, is no exception to this. There are a vast number of similarities and differences between the book and the movie, but a larger number of differences. The Chief Elder’s role and Asher and Fiona’s respective roles are examples of differences between both adaptations. A similarity between the book and the movie is how Jonas feels isolated from others in the community.
