Differences:
1. Clarisse and Montag meet for the first time in the street late at night in the book but they meet on the train in the movie. Clarisse is a school teacher and twenty in the movie but a student and seventeen in the book. Clarisse also dies in the book but stays alive in the movie.
2. The fire alarm to burn books happens mostly at night in the book but in the movie the firemen are seen at work during the day.
