Comparing Play And Movie

Decent Essays
The conflicts in the play and the movie are mainly the same in a lot of ways. There is a war going on outside so families try to cram up in the annex together. There is not a lot of room and people have to share rooms. They don’t get along very well and they are all at each others neck. They can not get away from each other they are all together. The play and the movie are very well written and told. Personally my favorite was the movie. The movie helped me see what everything they went through was like. It helped me understand everything that was going on to. Therefore the movie was my favorite but the play was very good to.

    I liked the play because it gave a good description on the murder of Amyas Crale. The play described how Caroline Crale had murdered her husband by the coniine that was put in his beer. The coniine is extracted from the hemlock plant. The hemlock is the same plant that killed Socrates. When Amyas Crale drank the poison, he started to have cramps and pains as he slowly died.…

    The language kept me engaged throughout the whole play. I was interested for a majority of the play. I would enjoyed it more had the actors not read from a script. " A series of 10 brief scenes, the script is rich with poignancy, tragedy and humor, qualities that director Nina Lee Aquino's Tarragon production admirably captures," according to NOW Toronto.…

    This play was one of the longest plays I had ever sat in on, but it didn’t feel like it. The characters and the story kept making me want more. It was that good!

    In Arthur Miller’s screenplay, The Crucible, some of the information throughout the screenplay was changed from the original play by Miller. Some of the effects may have been included to add more of a visual to occurrences between acts that had only been mentioned through dialogue in the actual play. Although it may be easier for an audience to remember the information, the adding of visual scenes that were not original to the script is not necessary to follow along. Therefore, I do not believe the changes made to the screenplay were justifiable. The original play provided enough information for the audience to understand the causes of certain scenes.…

    In my opinion, the play exceeded my expectations. I did not expect the actors to perform in a way that made me believe his or her conflict. The setting was well thought out and complimented the dialogue in a way that made me pay more attention to the conflict. The painting also added to the setting by focusing on the art aspect of the play. I also enjoyed the humor of the play.…

The last difference is that in the movie, Mr. Koogler stays healthy throughout the story, but in the play, Mr. Kraler goes to the hospital.…
