The woman in black is a horror and mystery novel written by Susan Hill. It has lots of details and description of the place where things took place. All the details and description of the setting brings the dark and mysterious atmosphere because it makes me feel like I am actually in that mysterious town, Crythin Gifford and the house Eel Marsh. And also the woman who dressed in black appeared and disappeared several times. The woman in Black is basically the story of protagonist’s curiosity of her identity. Later on, the woman in black made into the film. Both the novel and film are mysterious and scary but the novel and the film are totally different, from beginning to the end. Attitudes of the people and the owner toward Arthur is totally opposite.

There are 3 major differences between the book and the film. First, peoples attitudes toward Arthur is totally different. In the book people were generally nice but film was totally opposite to it. Nobody welcomed Arthur, they didn’t want him to be there. Second, Mrs. Daily’s character. She was described as very quiet in the book but in the film, she was not a quiet woman. She talked to Arthur friendly but she’s mentally suffering because of her child’s death. And finally, Arthur’s marriage. Arthur got married twice in the book but he married only once in the movie. Esme, the second wife from the book is not even exist in the film. And Stella, the first wife died at the end in the book but stella died at the very beginning. The author of the woman in black and the movie director of the woman in black has different perspectives or different point of views and that’s why the movie and the book are so much
The April Morning novel and the movie reveals the same basic story line. In movie, some scenes and characters were cut off from the novel, but overall it gives the same idea as novel. Both the book and movie depicts the story of Adam Cooper who is 15 year old boy at the beginning of the novel but at the end he turns out a man who takes the responsibilities of his family after his father death. Adam lives with his father Moses, mother Sarah, Brother Levi, and grandmother. The book shows the character Levi but not in movie.

As Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, “The nonviolent approach does not immediately change the heart of the oppressor. It first does something to the hearts and souls of those committed to it. It gives them new self-respect; it calls up resources of strength and courage they did not know they had”. (King) The conflicts met between the Civil Rights Movement protesters and the white people of the South were incredibly gruesome. While peace and equality for African Americans was the driving force of the protests, violence and inhuman resistance was the force of the white people. In the March Trilogy Books, written by John Lewis and Andrew Aydin, and in the movie Selma, written by Paul Webb and directed by Ava DuVernay, we are given a
There are other significant similarities between the movie and the book, so if I overlooked or forgot any extremely crucial points, forgive me.
While the film and the book are based on the same plot, there is a differentiation in how much character development was displayed. This is significant because being attached to a certain character is something that builds up appeal towards the work. Without any interest in the characters, it diminishes the work as a whole. In the film, I feel as though they emphasize more of the romance aspect, specifically between Janie and Tea Cake, than the character development of Janie. In the beginning on the book, Janie started off as women, naïve of life and the aspects around it, who gradually became aware of grandmother’s desire, which was to marry and be financially secured.
* At the end of the novel, Melinda speaks to Mr. Freeman about her being raped, whereas in the movie, she tells Joyce about it.
Throughout my years as a scholar I never quite enjoyed the process of summer work, especially the summer reading aspect of it. There are multiple reasons on why I perhaps dread the work. For one, I like to enjoy my summer without thoughts of school (though this was nearly impossible being a rising senior), and I go through the process of forgetting school, by ignoring my summer work up till the night before the first day of classes. However, this year I made an active decision to start my summer reading early, and I’m glad I did so. As I was scrolling through falconview in its last functional days I was pleasantly surprised to find the book MoneyBall as one of the options. Being an avid Baseball fan, having seen the movie adaptation, and the
The 3 major differences that were seen are the shattering of the conch, the pilot’s presence, and Ralph’s attitude towards Piggy. Due to these major differences the novel left a greater impact on its readers than the movie on its viewers. Seeing the movie and as well reading the book, personally the book was a better. The book has a very different approach of that showed these 3 major differences to their full extent. Out of the two though, I would choose the book as more pleasant and
Neither the novel nor film version of To Kill A Mockingbird is superior to the other, just different. In the book you delve more into the separate characters while in the film you see the relationships in action. The book gives you a broader view of everything, but at the same time the movie points out everything that seems important. Lastly, the novel shows Scout as a girl caught in the middle, when the movie seems to paint Scout as a girl without a inkling of what is going on.
Although the movie and book, To Kill a Mockingbird, are based off of the same storyline, they have some very key differences. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee is a classic novel about the childhood of two children, Jean Louise and Jem, who live with their father, Atticus Finch. This captivating story takes place in Maycomb, Alabama during the Great Depression and was written in 1960. This novel teaches readers a great deal about society and life during the Great Depression. The differences found between Harper Lee’s book and Robert Mulligan’s movie are countless and have a great impact on the theme and plot.
The Notebook, written by Nicolas Sparks, can be named one of the best American romantic novels. The book portrays every trait in a guy or girl would desire to have in a significant other. According to Nicolas Sparks, “it is a celebration of how passion can be ageless and timeless, tales that moves us to laughter and tears and makes us believe in true love all over again”.
A story in two different formats Everyone has their favorite books like To Kill a Mockingbird or The Notebook, and when a book generates a fan base, it can become popular enough to become a film. This first happened in 1899, when the Brothers Grimm story, Cinderella was first adapted into a short film making history, and setting the trend for adapting fan-favorite books into movies. Books and movies can tell the same story, but at the same time can tell the same story in an entire different way. This is extremely prevalent when comparing the Green Mile: The Complete and Serial Novel and the movie.
As Stephen King, an author, once said, “Books and movie are like apples and oranges. They are both fruits, but taste completely different.” Which is true. The movie a Raisin in The Sun is better than the book because the movie gives more details and information rather than the book. By adding more details and information to the movie, it makes it seem more interesting than the book. Even though the author added little details to the movie it feels like there are a lot going on. The book compared to the movie just seems boring. Change is good, sometimes in life you have to try new things to make something better. By changing the movie up a bit, there seems to be more going on, as was mentioned before. Like it was said in the quote, the movie and book looks the same and has the same features, but it is also completely different from one and other. Like it was said in the quote, the movie and book are similar, but are different in many ways. Here are some examples that are listed in the next three paragraphs.
A minor difference between the movie and the book was concerning the scene about Sir Henry going to the moor. In the book he was pretty upset that people were trying to keep him from going there, but in the movie he showed the least bit of emotion. This was not a major impact on the story but it definitely added character to Sir Henry. In the movie Sir Henry was somewhat timid and in the book that scene showed he was not afraid to stand up for himself.
This novel was also turned into a movie in 1962. The movie and the book had both similarities and differences. For instance, the relationship between Atticus and the African Americans was a similarity between the book and the movie. On the other hand the absence of Aunt Alexandra in the movie was a prominent difference between the book and the movie. The book and the movie were both good ,but there were similarities and differences in each .
