There are many differences occurred in the book and the movie of A Wrinkle In Time and And Then There Were None. I believe the director changed the movie so the viewers would understand it more and so the movie won’t be 5-6 hours long. I also think that they changed it is so people would understand it more, and some of the things in the book were hard to actually do in real life and in the time the movies were produced. There are many differences between the book and movie of A Wrinkle In Time.One major difference is when the kids on Camazotz told on Meg, Calvin,and Charles Wallace about being outsiders, If they were never told on then Calvin would have never been captured and tortured by his dreams. In the book they actually become friends with the paperboy and learn about what they do there. Another difference is when In the movie they never show IT. In the book the kids see IT and they realize they can’t just steal Charles Wallace from his wrath. The importance of seeing IT will help people understand who it actually …show more content…
Another major difference is Mrs.Claythorn never shot Philip Lombard. For the reason Vera never killed Philip Lombard not everyone died. In the book everyone dies like the poem. In the movie not everyone dies so it doesn’t follow the poem. Since Vera never dies Wargraves plan never worked in killing everyone on the island. When Vera and Lombard fake Lombard’s death Wargrave tries to convince Vera to hang herself, but Vera refuses to do that because she doesn’t want to carry on his plan to kill everyone. When Wargrave drinks the poison he says she will get the death sentence by being hung since she “killed” Lombard. In the book Vera does shoot Lombard then goes and hangs herself in her room then Wargrave comes out of hiding and sees she killed herself so he kills

    In the book when Mae killed the man, people knew in the movie that she killed the man, but in the book you have to read about four chapters to find out, while in those chapters the plot would gain more layers. People would also be at a draw by wanting the man in the yellow suit to be dead, so the Fosters could keep their land. At the same time, they would want the man in the yellow suit to be alive, so Mae would not be hung at the gallows, exposing her secret. One more reason to support this is when Mae was in jail, in the book you would wonder how Mae would escape, or if she escapes. While in the movie, you already know that people would save Mae, because of all the cliché beginnings and stories.…

    Do you believe it is easier to imagine or create something? Though the answer to this question could go both ways, this will most commonly be answered that it is easier to imagine something. Movies have to be limited to the real world’s physics and abilities, while books can create an imaginary would, not bound by physics.

    Paper Towns: Book vs Movie I’ve chosen to write about the differences between the book Paper Towns and the movie, basically what they didn’t include and what they changed in the film adaption. Personally I would say that I prefer the book before the movie, because the book is obviously more detailed and you get to read about the character's backstory and get to know them better. The author, who co-produced the film, made a video on youtube where he talked about the fact that the movie will be like the book but at the same time it will not.…

    In “The Landlady”, Billy Weaver is lured into a seemingly normal bed and breakfast by an old lady who, despite her gentle and unthreatening appearance, wants to kill him. It is a story about how those with cruel intent may take advantage of those who are innocent and naive. Although the book and the movie can be arguably similar if generalized, there are many differences that may change the way a reader/viewer may grasp the concept of the story. Since a movie and book cannot be exactly the same, the film version is bound to have things that differ from the text. One example of how the book develops the development of the story is with the setting.…
