Well The Secret in the Eyes by Eduardo Sacheri is a book that is relates to that situation. The book is narrated by Benjamin Chaparro, a retired detective for the Buenos Aires judicial system. He narrates about the events that had occurred while the rape and murder case of Liliana Colotto, in Buenos Aires, Argentina was active. It had left her husband Morales a widow and when told that there were no leads, Benjamín tries to look for the culprit and with great effort he manages to capture him, but due to the corrupt legal system in Argentina the culprit is set free. Then that brings Morales to take matters into his own hands and resolve it his own way. The movie that was made in correlation to the book, came out in 2009 and directed by Juan Jose Campanella. The movie resembles the book almost to every scene, they …show more content…
In the book Morales wanted to find Isidoro on his own because he wanted to bring justice to his wife that he loved enormously. “I’m here on Thursdays. On Mondays and Wednesdays, I’m in the Constitution Square station. Tuesdays and Fridays, Retiro… That’s my schedule this month. I’ll change it in September. I change it every month.” In the movie Morales had done the same action. He waits at the train station waiting and hoping that he finds Isidoro to bring him in. Morales mentions how he is affected by this, that the love of his life is now gone and how he has to cope with that and if he goes out to kill Isidoro he won't be suffering. “He started intently at a short guy who was passing in front of the bar but rules him out immediately and looked around for another possibility.” Morales wants Isidoro to suffer, so he hopes to capture him and let him suffer in life in

    Amity Movie Vs Book

    • 671 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The book delves into the residents of Amity in more depth than the film, but none of it is very interesting. Amity is a small town of about a thousand year-round residents, with the population increasing to around ten thousand during the summer. The year-round residents depend on the summer crowds to sustain them through the rest of the year, so when the pesky shark starts dining on tourists and Sheriff Brody is forced to close the beaches, it could spell doom for the town. The book does a good job setting this up, but adds two hugely unnecessary subplots, one simply boring and the other horrendously offensive on just about every level. We’ll start with the boring one.…

    The Glass Castle is a nonfiction book that was later turned into a movie. The book was written by Jeannette Walls, and the book is about her life. This story is a mostly about the family dynamic of a family who moves around quite often and where each member of the family has their own sets of difficulties. I think the book was turned into a movie for two reasons, one is that the book has parts that would not be super appropriate for younger readers, so they made it into a more of a kid friendly story. The second reason is that not everyone wants or has the time to read a book, it is much easier to see a movie trailer and then think I can spare two hours to go watch this movie.…
