The “Nightjohn” book and movie had many differences. The plot and story were kind of
the same. The things that were different were mostly the details in the book and movie. Here is
my comparison of the “Nightjohn” book and movie.
First off, here are some differences. The movie started differently than the book. The
movie started by showing Sarny’s birth. The book started with Sarny describing the main
characters like Waller, Mammy (Old Delie), and herself. The movie also showed Sarny’s real
mom being sold and it was during the movie’s present time. In the book, it had already happened
and Sarny was just saying that her real mom was sold. The movie definitely goes more in depth
with Margaret, Waller’s wife. She is a main character in the movie, but in the book,

It kind of created tension between the slaves and Waller
at some points in the movie. I didn’t really like the endings of the book or the movie. The way
the book ended was so anti-climactic. It made me think, “Is Sarny just going to be learning
letters for the rest of her life? Is that it?” The movie ending was a little better because it was kind
of sad which made the movie more interesting. At the end of the movie, Sarny was sold away to
another slave owner. I just wish that after that, Nightjohn would have found Sarny and they
would have done something cool like run away to the north, cause a rebellion, or something else
like that. In the book, there wasn’t a lot of action. The only time there was action was when a
slave ran away or got punished. It wasn’t a book that made me want to read the next chapter. It
didn’t keep me on the edge of my seat. It was just boring. The movie didn’t have that much
action either, but it still had more than the book did.
I thought that Waller was more brutal in the book. For example, in the movie, when
Waller caught Sarny looking through a book, he just slapped her. In the book, when he
Although the theme to have hope was still visible in the book and movie. Overall, the book was better than the movie because it has more details and more dramatic and leads you to want to read on and find out more chapter after chapter. Everyone should read the book because a lot of emotions, action, and mystery just a bit of
In my opinion there are a lot of comparisons between the film and the book, but there are also differences between them too, but also they have impacted the audience in both the film and the
Another difference is that the book is much more gruesome than the movie. In the movie when Pawley sneaks out, Waller whips his back a few times. That is a very painful punishment but compared to the book it isn't that bad. In the book when Pawley didn't make it back in time Waller let the dogs have him.
In the movie David Isay is one of the main characters but in the book he
Really the movie is more of a summary of the book, rather than a tie in. One good thing about the simplicity of the movie was the fact that it wasn’t really that hard to follow, which is good for the average movie goer who wants a decent movie to sit down to that looks good and enjoy popcorn with. Where do I even start with the difference between the book and the movie. Firstly the movie places most of the side characters out of order when they show up, for example when ender is launching off for the first time to battle school he meets Alai and Bean on the launch. In the book Alai is already in salamander army to begin with in the story.
In both the book and the movie, there are a lot of similarities but also some differences we see. The characters from the book act mostly the same in the movie. Lennie still has a mental disability and George is strict, but still loves Lennie.
It showed what Walter wanted to happen in his future and what he wanted to become. It makes the story more interesting to see it in a movie instead of just reading it and picturing it in your head. I think that a lot of people will think that the movie is better than the book just because it has more to tell about, and it shows more of what is happening. The movie
The book seemed to develop characters better than the book. Take Petra for example. She was so well developed in the book, but the movie didn't build up her character as much. The book states, “"Relax," she said. "I'm not an officer."
It had more narration so the reader could understand what is happening. Secondly, the movie. The movie was different than the book. It had some parts that were in the book, but it lacked some details.
Another difference is that in the movie they go into town, but in the book it 's never mentioned. Something else that was different was that in the book the mood was happy most of the time, while in the movie the mood was sad. A difference between the book and the movie is that in the book momma was going to burn Byron, but in the movie she does not burn him. A big difference is that in the
The last distinction I found was the age of Cindy Lu. In the book, the say that Cindy Lu was no more than two. But in the movie, she looks older than two. Cindy Lu has a bigger role in the movie than the book. I found many differences in the book and movie.
In this essay I will be written about the book “Enduring Love” by Ian McEwan and the adaption by film directed by Roger Mitchell. I will be explaining differences and similarities between the book and the films plot, the characters, and the setting. The book and the film both share the same story line, but the film contains many added details which are not it the book and has many details missing which were in the book.
(Ray, 2015). Because the movie is so much more condensed than the book, many details are left out. The movie spends little time in District 12 and The Capitol. This eliminates some characters who were in the book from being in the movie. Madge Undersee was in the book but not in the movie.
In the movie, the ending leaves you on a cliffhanger of them escaping. That is something that also made me want to read the book. You leave the reader on a cliffhanger. That cliffhanger from the book is. This cliffhanger makes the reader think about what would happen next.
I enjoyed the movie better than the book. It included just the right amount of action scenes, description words, and details from the story. The story was amazing but I like seeing things more than reading them. I usually like the movies better than the book.
