This will be a one page essay which analyzes the differences and similarities between the novel and the movie. The first task of this essay is to locate a copy of the movie.

  • Whenever something happens that is different from the book make a note of it.
  • Enjoy one of the single greatest movies Hollywood has ever produced.

After you watch the movie:

  • Pick a few of the differences and think about why they changed what they did
  • Write a one-page compare and contrast essay about the novel and movie, find a unifying element that will keep your paper from becoming a rambling commentary.

Therefore, there may often be significant differences between a book and the film adaptation of the said publication.
