Soda Movie And Book Comparison Essay

Decent Essays
The movie is very different from the book because sometimes in the book they include more details than in the movie. In the movies they spend a lot of time filming everything and sometimes one scene takes all day to film. In the book is something similar but not too much because in the book they take time to write everything and then to convert it into a book but what do you think. Something that they have in common is that they are written by the same author and it take place in the same year, but this is not always because sometimes they film the movie years after the book. In the movies and books are some similarities and some differences and we have different opinions in which one we want to choose or like better. In the book the characters …show more content…

The book was written in 1965 in Tulsa, Ok and the movie was made in 1983 so probably the movie and how the things look like are different than in how in the book explain them.

    In the movie it has many added characters and unnecessary occurrences. The movie adds an alcoholic man and his sister; they also add many more mercenaries for Zaroff's use. In contrast in the book the only characters on the island are Rainsford, Zaroff, Ivan, and the captives of Zaroff. At the beginning of the movie, on the yacht, you can see all the sailors that were aboard the ship. However, in the book the author only writes about the conversation between Rainsford and Whitney, which ends up Rainsford falling off soon.…

When the characters were sad or happy it seemed as if it were real and they weren’t just characters in a book.

    Also, the characters portrayal is much different when comparing the book and movie. Lastly, there is a significant difference in the chemistry and feelings of love, at least that are portrayed in the book are nonexistent in the movie. One major aspect that plays a large role in book to movie adaptations is the screenwriter’s ability to transform the book. The screenwriter must be able to not only transform the book, but he must have the critical adaptability to make it successful. “This involves first distribution, then audience reception.”…

    Like many other movies derived from books, there are numerous differences. The book has many people who aren't named in the movie, and the movie shows scenes that the book does not. The book described the Abramowiczs as a fairly poor family in a small shtetl, but in the movie it shows a wealthy family in a big village. There are also many similarities between the book and the movie. Both the book and movie contain the same main ideas in the plot, and have more or less the same storyline.…

    Ironically due to the storyline; the book is better than the movie, because it is shows better description, character analysis, and it gets the point across to the reader to show what leads up to the main idea. While, the movie it is more vague and fast paced so it's hard to comprehend the storyline. The book is more illustrative than the movie. For example, the…

    I have come to this conclusion because many main characters were excluded, the story with Johnny’s hand was changed, and also Rab’s death never happened. So, why was the movie so drastically different from the book? Dove, Madge, Dorcas, Isannah, and Lavinia. All major characters that were not included in the movie.…

    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.…

    It seems an unfair view to expect a movie about a book to be exactly the same down to every single detail. Communities of fans will always find something wrong with a story, for it has “failed” to match expectation. Books are a place where someone can be dragged into the story and forget about everything else for a short while. Movies do the exact same thing, except it is seen as an easier way than books for a lot of people. Ignoring obvious differences (such as the fact that one is in picture form, and the other is in words), movies and books may not be so different after all.…
