Extra Characters Added to the Later Work
On average, 3 out of 5 of my friends will always claim that the book is more superior than the movie.

However, in this case, the movie Beowulf and Grendel (Gunnarsson, 2005.) added characters such as the witch, Grendel’s son, and the praised man, to emphasize that the world views from today greatly differ in regard to the complications of understanding the concept of good and evil.
