My final is about the difference between the book and the movie “The Outsiders.” This next paragraph is about the description difference between the book and movie.

Altogether the movie and the book were pretty good and had good meaning to it about want to think of life and it’s alright to not be tough and hard.

As authors and directors gain influence from inspiring sources, they are also gaining influences from the surrounding culture and the time period that they are living in.

New historicism is the theory that explains this and specifically focuses on just how the time period of a work changes and shows how an author's experiences come to life through a work.

I believe the movie is structured better, as it is centered around only one story, the story of a Gloucester, Massachusetts fishing crew on the Andrea Gail. I do not think the author had the experience of these men, whom he wrote about to remember and respect.
