Similarities Between 'The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo'

The book and movie “A Wrinkle In Time” by Madeleine L'Engle has many differences and similarities. Both movie and book use a thing called the tesseract. The Wrinkle in time is movie that needs a lot of detail because of how much creativity is in the book and the movie doesn't give a lot f detail.

The first theme that I would like to address regarding The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is the violence against women included in it. I think that this is one of the biggest themes because it is very important and also plays a huge part in this story. For example, the author states that “finally the boy punched her in the face; it split open her lip and made her see stars” (Larsson, p.229). This quote I think is important because not only does it show another example of violence towards women, but it also shows that Lisbeth Salander has been subjected to

The story of the Beauty and the Beast is well known amongst all ages. Though the story they portray in the Disney version is much different than what they have portrayed it in France. La Belle et la Bête has been produced twice, once in 1946 and again in 2014. These two movies tell the same story but in very different ways. The perception of this story has changed between the different time periods.

The Indian The Tale of Tulisa and the Disney film the Beauty and the Beast both consist of a beautiful woman who ends up in a relationship with a king who attributes characteristics of wild beasts. Although these two stories are from entirely different cultures, they both have strikingly high amounts of similarities as well as differences. One similarity that is apparent between the two works is the misogynistic view of women implied in each story, some blunt and some hidden within screenplay. For instance, in The Tale of Tulisa, Tulisa is not allowed to decide for herself if she can marry or not and in the Beauty and the Beast Gaston, the overly manly man, exemplifies his dominance over women repeatedly throughout the story. In addition to this, the two stories also exemplify congruence through the main woman character within each respective account breaking the curse that was upon the king. On the contrary to these similarities, the two tales differ in the way that the marriages occur; One resulting from an arranged marriage and one stemming from love.

Linda Seger's hero myth from her publication "Creating the Myth" is very thorough in the steps involved in creating a hero of a story. All ten steps are very common to a typical hero story. However, there are some gaps in her theory. An example of a story that does not fit Seger's theory is the Disney version of the fairy tale Beauty and the Beast. This popular cultural phenomenon has within it an atypical hero, one who pokes holes in Seger's hero myth theory. This atypical hero, simply named Beast, does not fit all ten of the steps in a typical hero story.

I believe this to be true due to the fact that there is only one similarity between the two stories and that is, that in both there is a princess that stumbles upon and frog and he turns into a prince.

In today’s society, many stories and writings of older authors are modernized into films and short videos. An example of this is in William Faulkner’s story A Rose for Emily. Faulkner’s story was made into a short video of about 30 minutes in length and has added content into the film that is not originally in the text.
