A Cry In The Wild: Telling The Story

Decent Essays
I believe that a cry in the wild does a better job telling the story i believe this because. It gave a visual picture and that help me understand more and it was funny and some parts shocked me and that is why i think a cry in the wild is better. and the book was not better because it did not give a visual view and it did not make me laugh and it did not shock me and it was kinda emotional. but it was a good book but still not better but it could have been better if it was more funny or more imagery or more sight words. but a cry in the wild was kinda too old school and it was kinda the same but i just like it better because it way of telling the story.

    Hatchet I believe that Hatchet has done a better job at telling the story due to. It gave a greater number of detail in the story to support whoever reads the book to more competently understand the story. For, example when the moose attacked him it gave so much detail I could feel the pain, and torture he suffered, but in the movie it did not provide as much detail as the book. When the plane crashed I could just feel the water, and I could make out the green, and blue of the lake. In conclusion I believe that the book Hatchet does a better job at telling the story than the movie Cry In The Wild.…

    I believe that “A cry in the wild”does a better job than the novel Hatchet. I think this because A cry in the wild explains what happened way better than the novel Hatchet. For an example when the pilot had a heart attack the movie made it look like he was in very bad pain but in the novel Hatchet it didn't even sound like he was hurting. Also the movie uses way more foreshadowing and imagery. Like when Brian throws his hatchet across his shelter it made sparks.…

    Hatchet vs. A Cry in the Wild I think Hatchet did a way better job of telling the story. In “A Cry in the Wild” they had to skip many things to keep the movie so it's not to long. And in Hatchet, the author lists all the details to give a great image in your mind.…

    I believe that Hatchet does a better job of telling the story. I believe this because Hatchet gives us more details than the movie. In the movie “A Cry in the wild” they change more things and it is not very similar to the book. In the book it says that Brian was in the plane and all the sudden he smelt something and did not understand then Brian knew what it was it the pilot passing gas. In the movie the only thing that the pilot did was clutched his shoulder but did not pass gas.…

    Another thing about how the book was better was Johnny’s death scene in the movie was really cheesy and not very good, but in the book it was emotional and very well written. So all in all, in my opinion the book was far better than…

    After all this you would think the movie didn't care about anything but imagery and foreshadowing and not the actual goodness of the cinematography This also tells that there was a lot more effort involved in the book than A Cry in the Wild. A Cry in the Wild displayed imagery and foreshadowing better. This is because we can see the blood and the gore and every…

    In my opinion, Hatchet, to me does a better job of explaining the story rather than “A Cry in the Wild”. I felt that the book used good foreshadowing and imagery better because it takes Brian a while to comprehend what happened in foreshadowing so he has time to do more major parts in the book until he comprehends what happened, and it describes what Brian saw with imagery.. An example of foreshadowing, “As he threw the hatchet a shower of sparks rained down.” Example from pg. 75.…

    I think that the movie is better than the book because the movie has more light and there is music. And the book does not have light or music you have to make a picture in your mind. They are alike because they both say the same things. Marley was dead to begin with and the clock went to the other direction and the hour clock rang for 1:00 and then he went back to sleep then there was a person standing there it was a women that Marley warned of. Like when it said this that old Marley was as dead as a doornail.…

    The momma bear tilts her had, staring at me through angry eyes. I can almost imagine the thoughts whirling around in her huge, furry head. She's wondering if I'm a threat to her baby, protecting him like any mother should do. The cubs quite a bit smaller, with light brown fur and ears that pop up over her head. He doesn't seem afraid of me, more like curious, wanting to explore more then fight.…

    There are some differences between what the movie talks about and what the book talks about of the story “The Freedom Writers.” Me personally i think that the movie is better because i am seeing it with my own eyes. I can visually understand it. Personally i like to watch movies better than reading books so that might be why i like the movie more. I don’t really have patience for reading a book, i’d rather watch a movie, it’s more interesting to me.…

    The pain began slowly, pricking me with its sharp needles only while doing barre in ballet once a week. I ignored it, believing it to be normal, common discomfort that would soon go away, typical thoughts of a dancer whose entire sport is centered around “good pain”. Six months later, it had escalated to the degree that every step I took felt like an arrow to my knee. Dancing had become impossible, and it was determined that I should be taken to the orthopedist. The bland, brown and beige lobby became extraordinarily familiar as I waited two hours to be examined.…

    One foot in front of the other. Twenty miles a day rain or shine. No cellphone and sometimes not talking out loud for hours on end. You don’t know how much you have to give until you’re asked to push past every boundary with no safety net. This is what I did in spring of 2014 when I rode my horse from Tennessee to Oklahoma along the Trail of Tears.…

    One of the most asked questions when comparing a book to a movie is which one is better. When someone takes the time to read the book, and admire the magnificent teen literature being held in their hands, the book is by far the better of the two. The book brings in more emotion, more characters, and a few of those minor details…
