The Book ' Smarter 's Is Pointed Out By Robert Stam

An example would be the bombing of Baba-Levy's house. In the book, the bombing occurred while Marjane was at the mall on her way to her house. The movie showed this scene close to the last section of the first half of the movie and didn't mention her at the mall. The text however, showed a clear description of her reaction to the news of the bombing and running to her house for fear of her neighbors and her family's safety. In total, the text summarized and transitioned the plot better than movie.

Many books and stories are made into movies that are shown all around the world. However, not everyone likes the way the motion picture turns out. Sometimes, the movie is very close to the book, but most of the time certain details are lost or changed to make the movie look more appealing. This may take away or change the actual meaning of the original story. For example: Night, a book by Elie Wiesel, is about his personal experiences with the Holocaust and has emotional as well as shocking details.

Children today have access to many forms of literature, some of which are books made into movies. As the children become older, comments such as “the book was way better” or “the movie didn’t even come close to matching the book” or “the movie and book are the exact same, so save time and just watch the movie” are heard once children begin to make connections between the book and the film. It is important to me, as a future teacher, to be able to address such comments from my students and, in turn, help them understand why and how movies can either help or hinder the book’s original value and message. To help me prepare, I will compare a children’s film to the literary work that came from it.

A common answer to a question people are always debating over is whether the book or the movie is better. So which one is better, the Divergent book or the Divergent movie? When comparing and contrasting the Divergent book and the movie based off of the book, you notice there are some features that are the same, and some features that are different. Some examples of these features are the details, the process, and the accuracy.

The difference between the developing way of books and movies is magnificently huge because the way of emotion transmitting is different; the movie is based on vision, while the book is based on words.

For instance, the book talks about how the greasers felt and how their feelings were, then in the movie, it didnt talk about it but it showed it. The way that they showed it was not as good as it was written. When reading we don't fall in love with the characters' appearance. We fall in love with their words, their thoughts, and their hearts. We fall in love with their soul. In movies we focus more on appearance and what's going on in the background, which then gets people distracted from what the character is feeling and their thoughts. On the other hand, you can see the actions of the characters in the movie, which might help you process the way they act, however with the book the author can use what he thinks and try to give people a general idea of everything. For an example in the book it talks about how Randy

When a book becomes a movie which is better the book or the movie? The same question is debated with Cyrano De Bergerac a play written by Edmond Rostand and the movie Roxane by Director Fred Schepisi. The differences between the play and the modern movie are extremely unalike.

Victoria de Zwaan is a professor of experimental fiction, film theory, and adaptation studies at Trent University in Ontario, Canada, and argues in this article that while fidelity studies could be considered a stagnated and outdated vain of research in adaptation theory, it can be examined from various angles to achieve a deeper understanding of the source text instead of cutting up both sources only to fight one other for superiority; in this case Zwaan uses the film, Midnight’s Children, to expand upon her theory. Zwaan takes note of George Bluestone’s capstone work, Novels into Film, and states that most of the work done, outside of his book, on the subject was merely a mode to break down the film adaptation and highlight the lack of “justice”

When a book becomes a success, that book usually gets adapted into a movie. However, a movie adaptation can be very different from its book, because it’s pretty difficult to fit everything from a book into a movie. Some events may need to be omitted from it and some may need to be added, according to the movie director. Books and their movies can be very different, but their objective has to remain the same. The book, “Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH” and its movie adaptation, “The Secret of NIMH” both have the same objective, with some minor changes throughout the story of the movie, because what works in one might not work in another. This essay will discuss and compare the similarities and differences between the book and the

Very often people assume that watching the movie version of a book is equivalent to reading it. In some cases, this is true, but many times the director of the movie takes artistic liberties. Through the director’s discretion many details changed in movies are according to his or her taste and style of directing. Certain aspects of the film were effective in conveying some themes, as others were not as successful. Gary Ross, the director of The Hunger Games (2012), chose to interpret the book traditionally, which stays faithful to the plot and character traits of Suzanne Collin’s work, but, restructures the plot reveals and pacing of the book.

Adaptation from one medium to another is a slippery slope that adapters have to be very cautious of. Any form of misrepresentation of the characters, scenery & plot can cause a film to plummet and receive harsh criticism. One can only ask how well adapters are without the guidance of the original author. Would William Shakespeare be satisfied with the many adaptations of his infamous play Romeo & Juliet? Or would Jane Austen be content with how well Keira Knightley portrayed the eccentricities of the main character Elizabeth Bennet? These are questions we must ask ourselves when depicting how well adaptors mimic the original context. One thing that comes into play are the visual texts and the alterations the adaptors make when trying to bring

* In today's world, the packing is more important that the content. The cover of the book is more important the book itself. The cast of the movie attracts the audiences to theatres than the storyline.

From the very outset, it is worth noting that the article’s central theme is the practice of adaptation. Adaption is used in the article to describe the practice of transforming an already existing work of art to come up with a new form of art. In essence, adaptation involves developing a new work of art (such as a film) from an existing one (such as a novel or play). The new work of art is said to have transformed or adapted the original. As such, it is inevitably referred to a reproduction or adaptation of the original. In this sense, the focus of the article is on how different artistic and literary works have been transformed into films through adaptation.

The purpose of this thesis is to come up with a clear justification on the reasons why screenwriters and filmmakers would modify books. It should be understood that the book and the film are two different subject matters. But the film would not exist without the help of the elements from the
