In the book, Unbroken, and the movie has many similarities and differences. There are three evident differences that has been shown between the two. The first variation is the dead bodies the Japanese fighters shot. In the text, it says Louie saw the two dead bodies of Phil and Mac, after the plane attacked them. In the videoclip, it doesn’t show the point of view of Louie seeing them lifeless. Another change is the Japanese mercenary. In the passage it states that Louie saw the mercenary first appear, but then it disappeared. In the motion picture, it starts with the antagonist attacking right away. The last distinction is the actions each character made. In the paragraph, it shows Louie as a strong person, and Louie had to help Mac and Phil

This book impacted me in a positive way by showing the inferior conflicts to avoid in my life. An example of when Rudy had to put through hardship is when he would hesitate between school or partying. “I was a joker who never took classes seriously I would party and get drunk with the townies on the weekends and go diving with my Kahaluu friends on the weekdays. School was just a big time setback” Is textual evidence of Rudy having lack of interest in progressing in his life, and preparing for his

Even at a young age, people said he had to play all time center while playing backyard football because he was to small. These doubts continued throughout the rest of his life as he only stood at 5’6 and was never the fastest on the field. These flaws of course lead to Rudy not getting any scholarship offers for his athletic ability. When people were told to get on the bus to tour Notre Dame, Rudy was told not to get on the bus because he would never get accepted into the university, and was told college wasn’t for everyone. This forced Rudy to work at a steel mill instead, rock bottom for this man. The only real bright spot in Rudy’s life during this time was his best friend Pete, who always kept his hopes up.

This paper is concerned with the way that Robert Cohn is portrayed considering his actions, immaturity, and relationships that lead to and anti-exemplary behavior in The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway. Cohn is a character who does not seem to change very much throughout the novel. The actions that Cohn presents in the beginning of the novel are still presented when it comes to the near end of the novel. While most of the characters are able to grow and learn the values, Cohn stays his immature self. Hemingway’s portrayal of Cohn is to demonstrate a better way to live as evident in characters such as Romero and the Count.

The book, and the movie, “the Outsiders” is about a conflict between greasers and socs. Up until the point where Johnny kills a soc, there are mostly only small fights and arguments between the two. The story “the Outsiders” takes place in the 1960’s, when there were two main lifestyles. Greasers and Socs. Greasers are known for greasing their hair. Socs are rich kids who have good clothes, drive mustangs, and always have an argument against the greasers. The main character in S. E. Hinton’s book “the Outsiders” is Ponyboy Curtis.

Another difference between the book and the movie is that the movie has some added scenes. In the movie, when Chance is forced to leave the house he lived in, he is runs into a group of black people. When Chance asks them for directions, they pull out a knife and threaten him. They think that some guy named, Raphael, sent Chance there for something. The man with the knife tells Chance to bring back Raphael a message, which was explicit.

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.

“Life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you’re going to get” (Hanks). Many times when books are changed into movies they are done incorrectly. Forrest Gump is one of these examples. Forrest Gump, the novel, was written in 1986 by the author Winston Groom. The movie Forrest Gump was created by Paramount Pictures in 1994. Tom Hanks stars as the main character Forrest Gump. The movie portrayed Forrest Gump in a different way and as sometimes more innocent than his character in the book. This is shown in three different ways: Jenny and Forrest’s relationship, Characters’ drug use, and in the book Forrest is involved in more activities and adventures.
