“My Appearance”, written by David Foster Wallace, revolves around a 40 year old female actress, Edilyn, who has made notable achievements in her acting career- including an Emmy nomination- and has been invited to David Letterman’s late night show. Her second husband is against this as he is worried that her appearance on the show could be problematic and terminate her career in the film industry. He believes that the sole purpose of Letterman’s show is to ridicule people and thus wants Edilyn to ridicule herself before Letterman has the chance to do it. Along with his friend Ron, they prepare Edilyn for the show and provide her with an earplug so that they can control how the show goes. They both believe that such a television appearance can either make you or break you depending on how well one handles David Letterman. At first the show is a disaster as things do not go as planned, but once Edilyn sets aside the acting and becomes her true self, the show ends up being a success. However, her husband still believes that she was acting and insists on the idea that no one is as they appear to be. In the end, despite her husband’s objection, Edilyn is convinced that Letterman is a sweet guy misunderstood by her husband and his friend.

The plot and the setting of book and movie are very similar. There was a lot of thins borrowed from the book, but there was a lot changed as well. The movie followed the plot of book very closely and portrayed the setting of the book very well. A lot of the dialogue was borrowed and spoken directly as it was in the book.

The novel and the movie were both very suspenseful. The main characters are both the same in the book and in the movie but are a little bit different then their counter partners in the novel/movie. In both the movie and

Both share the same plot, and there are very little differences between the two. These are a few of the differences that I was able to notice between the book and the movie.

Overall, I was very impressed with the movie and it was very true to the book. I have seen my share of movies that were adaptations from books that did not do the book justice, but this one is almost exactly like the book, so it was very

Both the novel and the film share indistinguishable qualities. For example,They both have the same places as the novel.There were the DX,Tasty Freeze,the lot,the church,and the characters houses.Since they had the same places the same things happened.They have the same places so,they have the same scenes.However,they seem identical, they have a lot of differences.

“[A] recent author and public figure…[Colin Powell, wrote a] book, My American Journey, [that] helped me harmonize my understanding of America’s history and my aspiration to serve her in uniform…Powell gave me another way to think about the American dilemma and, more than that, another way to think about my own life” (Moore 131-2). Author Wes Moore wrote the book The Other Wes Moore, both an autobiography and a biography about a man who shares his name and has a similar backstory, to demonstrate how people’s destinies are primarily influenced by the environment into which they are born. Examining stories including and similar to those of both Wes Moores, as well as reflecting on one’s own personal experience, can provide insight into

very big similarity. In my opinion, the movie was better because you could actually see whats going on,

What would you do if you lost access to running water? That is what the small town of Porterville, Ca is currently experiencing. Water is an essential part of life, a place without water becomes inhabitable. The drought in California is not affecting everybody the in the same way but it has become a bigger problem the longer it lasts. Finding a solution to such a big problem is not an easy task.

Optical Illusions fool your brain by seamlessly, making your brain think that something still, is actually moving.
