Similarities Between The Outsiders And The Outsiders

After running for a while they stopped in another parking lot with a fountain in the middle. While in the parking lot a blue mustang that belonged to the Socs that beat up Johnny a long time ago pulled up. They stepped out and started to insult Johnny and Ponyboy, Ponyboy snapped back and they grabbed him and shoved his head in the found as stated, “They grabbed my arm and twisted it behind my back, and shoved my face into the fountain. I fought, but the hand at the back of my neck was strong and I had to hold my breath. I’m dying, I thought, and wondered what was happening to Johnny.” This showed that those Socs were even going to kill them just because they talked back, but they were also drunk which also shows how dangerous drunk Socs are. To save Ponyboy Johnny had to kill the Soc and afterwards they both had to run out of town to avoid being arrested. This changed Ponyboys identity into a outlaw.

Have you ever noticed in “The Outsiders” the differences and the similarities between the Greasers and the Socials? Well I will be explaining and showing why the Socials and Greasers are different and why they are the same. I will also be giving evidence supporting Ponyboys thought that Greasers and Socials are the same.

The book and the movie of the Outsiders are two very different stories. The book has so much more detail then the movie. The movie is not the most detailed but it does get its point across. There are may similarities and also many differences between the two the book is by far more interesting and more detailed then the movie. I enjoyed the book a lot and the movies a lot but the movie was missing a lot.

The movie didn’t show anything like what the booked talked about. After the trial, Ponyboy went back to school but was slacking off on his homework and grades. One day Ponyboy's English teacher talked to him after class. Ponyboy’s English teacher just told him that he was failing the class and if Ponyboy came up with a theme for the semester he would pass him with a C for the semester. Then later that night Ponyboy wrote his theme. It is very bad that the movie didn’t show this. This is one of the most important things in the book because Ponyboy’s theme that he wrote, turned into the book The Outsiders. So with the movie not showing Ponyboy talking to his teacher, the audience didn’t know what Ponyboy was writing about at the end of the book. Therefore the director of The Outsiders skipped a very important scene in the movie and the book did a good job describing it, giving the readers knowledge on what Ponyboy was writing about at the end of the

The Outsiders was about the greasers and the Socs. The Socs always jump the greasers, one day Johnny fights back, he ends up killing Bob. Johnny and Ponyboy run away to a church and hide until Dally comes and gets them. They then see the church was burning, Ponyboy and Johnny run into it to save the kids inside. Johnny and Dally get injured, Ponyboy is okay. The greasers win the rumble, the Socs will stay out of the greasers territory, Johnny passes away from his injuries, Dally robs a store, the police shoot him, and he does not survive the shots. In the end Ponyboy decides to regather his life and he starts with writing his theme for his ELA class. The book The Outsiders book, the

At the end of the book Ponyboy finally comes to terms with the deaths of Johnny and Dally, and he finally realizes that violence is not the answer when he makes up with Darry. Darry and Ponyboy are shouting at each other, and Ponyboy asks Sodapop to take his side. This causes Sodapop to rush out of the house, and Ponyboy and Darry chase after him. When they finally catch up Sodapop tells them he feels sick of being pulled apart by their fights. Ponyboy sympathizes with Sodapop as he says in the text: “Darry and I did play tug of war with him, with never a thought to how much it was hurting him.” Ponyboy suddenly understands what his fighting with Darry has done to Sodapop, and later in their conversation Ponyboy realizes why he never got along with Darry: “I saw that I had expected Darry to do all the understanding without even trying to

Secondly, Ponyboy did not get sick, resulting no conversation or any connection with Ponyboy and Darry. In the book, the conversation helped Ponyboy and Darry get closer, and helped form a better relationship between the two brothers. The film included Ponyboy being sick, but not to the point where Darry was worried sick and wanted to talk to Pony. The cutting of this moment was not needed, because from the movie's point of view, it shows that Darry and Ponyboy have no bonding moments, but in the book Ponyboy and Darry have this kind of brother relationship without

First, when Darry slapped Pony, he felt so sad and worthless because he felt like Darry didn’t want him at home anymore. Darry and Pony don’t get along to well in the beginning of the book, but throughout their conflicts, they learn that they love each other very much. Another example is when Pony gets a letter from Soda when he was running away. Soda said that they miss Johnny and Pony very much and wish they would come home. Pony gets very emotional and sad because he misses them so much. Pony and Soda realize that they need each other. They love each other and couldn’t imagine life without them. Pony tells Johnny that they need to go home and turn themselves in for killing a Bob. Pony and Johnny did not want to do this, but it was the right thing. On the other hand, when Darry and Soda were protecting Pony from the fight with the Soc’s he knows that they will never hurt or fight with one another again.

In this case, greasers are from the East and don’t earn a lot of money; Socs are from the West and have plenty of money. Furthermore, the story takes place in the 1960’s during discrimination and racial tensions are high, not to mention in Oklahoma. Ponyboy and Johnny take a train to Windrixville to live in an abandon church for a week. Then Ponyboy and Johnny come back, but this time in the hospital. Lastly, the book ends in the park where Dally is gun down.

The “Outsiders” movie and novel are very different and similar. The book and the movie have some similarities. After really comparing the two there was a lot of differences.

“The Outsiders” is by far one of my favorite books of all time. I think it’s a great story that tells about how a fourteen-year-old boy overcomes many challenges and learns how to get through each of them individually. “The Outsiders” is a story about a boy named Ponyboy that lives with his two older brothers, and they have a group of friends, called the Greasers. One day Pony gets upset with his older brother, Darry, and goes to a park with his friend Johnny to calm down. At the park, a group of kids, called Socs, come and start drowning Pony. Johnny gets scared and doesn’t know what to do so he kills one of the Socs. Soon after, Pony and Johnny decide to run away so they wouldn’t have to deal with

The movie is fairly similar to the book except for a few exceptions. One of the main things is that the movie is less detailed and is faster paced. Another thing is that pony never went to the hospital after the fire and didn't have a concussion. When Dallas was driving to the hospital with Pony and he got pulled over by the police who was on a motorcycle. While At the hospital Johnny’s mom comes to visit him but Pony and Dallas don't talk to her. When Dally leaves he goes and robs a store and the police are after him. Then when the police catch him he raises his unloaded handgun and the police shoot him. He gets shot once and does a few rolls stands up and gets shot more. The gang goes home after finding Dally and Ponyboy starts writing the “Outsiders”.

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. He has two older brothers Darry and Soda. Pony is 14 years old and his best friend, Johnny, is 16 years old. S. E. Hinton wrote “the Outsiders” when she was 17 years old. Her book was published in 1967. The

”The Outsiders” book and the movie are both different in a lot of ways.In the book and movie have both Johnny and Ponyboy running away.Like in the book he was sick in the book, but not in the movie.

The two books The Outsiders and The Wednesday Wars are very similar and diverse in countless ways. The location, main characters, and influences help demonstrate these similarities and differences. In the book, The Wednesday Wars, Holling HoodHood lives in Long Island with what his father likes to think is the perfect family. He is a 13-year-old boy who goes to Camillo Junior High but with this time in history, during the Vietnam War, his life could change. For Ponyboy Curtis life is almost completely different. Where he lives, life is not the all American dream. Competition between the Socials and the Greasers is always a constant threat for him and his gang. Ponyboy Curtis is a greaser like no other. His ability to comprehend school subjects set him apart from the rest of his gang. In both books you would be able to find similarities in where they take place, the main characters, and the people who influence their lives.
