Although the book had a very mature storyline and theme, the movie, on the other hand made it seem like it was a children’s movie with all the unnecessary cute and funny scenes of the baby farm animals even though it was far from being a children’s story - it contained adult themes, alcohol abuse, executions, and violent battles. It was more than your average cartoon. Plus, most of the dialogue in the book was replaced by narration in the movie which reduced immensely the depth of personality of the animals. Not enough to ruin the movie, the endings between the novel and the film had quite a contrast. In the book, the story ended with a classic scene and a chilling line which grabbed the readers until the end. However in the movie, the story

The film and the story have very different parts on how the man and the dog thought.
For many years Hollywood has been making blockbuster movies based on bestselling novels, but often these movies differ greatly from the novel . The movie The Power of One based on a book of the same name follows this trend. The Power of One tells the story of Peekay, a boy living in South Africa who dreams of becoming the welterweight champion of the world, and who tries to correct the injustice that goes on around him. Although the movie does keep the main themes of the novel like racism and how one person can change the world. The film adds new plot twists and characters that make the story more exciting, but also changes important characters and storylines from the

With many scenes taken away because some characters are never mentioned took away a lot of the overall meaning of the story. I didn’t feel to relate to the movie as much as I did with the novel. Leaving an apt amount of scenes out, took away some of the anticipation I was building up to. Which made me a bit disappointed.
Some similarities in the book are, Mason had to sell his horse and also tex’s horse because they needed the money for groceries. Mason said that if they didn't sell the horses then either the horses would starve or mason and tex would. Another similarity is that Tex had to go to the hospital. Tex had to go to the hospital because he got shot when he went to Lem’s friends house. Lem’s friend shot Tex in the hand because Tex was trying to leave. One more similarity was that Mason and Tex were on t.v. They were on t.v because they picked up a hitchhiker, and the hitchhiker had a gun and was trying to shoot mason. If Tex did not take the hitchhiker where he wanted to go then he was going to shoot Mason.

You can easily tell what the differences and similarities are.
Stephen King, a horror story author who made The Shining and It, once said “When I go to see a movie that is been made from one of my books, I know that it is not going to be exactly like my novel because a lot of other people have interpreted it”. This is true because in books you can imagine people in your own head and think of what the setting looks like. You also do not know what will happen in the story, but in the movie there is music so you know when something is coming up. Movies are my favorite but they can not exactly be the best. These are some reasons why movies are not as good as the books.
Have you ever wanted to prove someone wrong? Have you ever put your mind to something so much that you will stop at nothing to reach your goal? Then there is one heck of a good book and movie for you to watch/read. The book that had later gotten adapted to become a movie is about how a young boy named Sam Gribley goes to leave his family of sailors to live off the land on his grandfather's farm. Usually when novels become movies somethings that happened in the novel might not happen in the film. That is why I am going to write about the disparity of the motion picture and novel.
The government is starting to get into more of our business now than they did, let’s say, 30 years ago because of how common technology is now and how much it has evolved.

There are many differences between the book and the movie. One of them is Montag is black in the movie and he is white in the book. Beatty died in the book and he didn’t die in the movie.

I've watched the movie and read the book. Both are good. However in my opinion, the book is better because there are more characters, places and Excalibur information in the book but less than in the movie. These are the reasons that I think why the book is better. They all adds more facts in the book.
Similarities and difference are very common when a book and a movie is compared and contrasted. The movie creators made a lot of scenes different from the book. Books usually have a lot more details than a movie does. The reason why is because if every detail from the book is in the movie then the movie would be extremely long. The movie has way less detail than the actual movie does.
