One film that is famously known for breaking this formula is Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho.

The Native Son “Was what he had heard about rich white people really true? Was he going to work for people like you saw in the movies…”. In book one Bigger sits in a movie and imagines what it will be like when he does to work for Mr. Dalton. Bigger has no relationship or understanding of white people except for what he sees in movies. Same goes for how white people see blacks, as savages.

According to the Internet Movie Database, there are roughly 268,246 movies in existence. Yet out of all of those, there is one, in my opinion, that is superior to all of them— The Hunger Games. The Hunger Games is the best movie ever because of its action filled plot, highly-developed characters, and its ability to take the box office by storm.

The changes are mostly necessary, and most of the time do not take away from the main theme or message. Things are taken out and added from the book to the movie in order to appeal a wider audience.
