During the 1960's, To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee was a best seller almost immediately after it was published. To Kill a Mockingbird was a book about prejudice and segregation. When the book was made into the movie the creators couldn't fit all the details in the movie leading to some similarities and differences. To Kill a Mockingbird was filled with a lot of details and information. Therefore, the movie left out some important factors.

Movie vs Book The movie Walter Mitty is better than the book. It is better because in the movie he does more and sees more than in the book. In the movie he is like a turtle in his shell, but by the end of the movie he comes out to see the world. In the book he is more of a hero than a loner and in real life he is yelled at by his wife. In the book he is a hero in his daydream, and in the movie he is do his own thing.
Harper Lee's Novel To Kill a Mockingbird and Robert Mulligans film adaptation of To Kill a Mockingbird have many similarities and differences in the eyes of many book lovers. The trial was a crucial scene in the movie that displayed strong, well-devised, and included many exceptional actors. On the contrary, some important moments, people, and lessons in the book were removed from the movie that created a different meaning to the whole story. Calpurnia and Dolphus Raymond were two main characters in the novel that taught valuable lessons to not only Jem and Scout, but to readers across the world. These characters should have been more integrated in the movie to build a stronger more meaningful plot.
“Of Mice and Men,” by John Steinbeck and the movie adaptation directed by Gary Sinise have several differences and similarities. Among the differences was where Lennie and George are escaping Weed. Another difference is when Lennie sees a hallucination of his Aunt Clara and a large rabbit. Lastly, at the end of the book when George shoots Lennie When Lennie scares off a woman in Weed they are chased, run into the irrigation ditches to hide, and then escape on a train. The movie shows all of this as the opening scene including the woman in the red dress running of after Lennie grabbed a hold of her dress.

If anyone were to treat black people the way they were treated in this book, they’d be looked down on and shamed. Just like in today's society and the society back then, the book To Kill a Mockingbird and the movie have many similarities and differences. The novel, To Kill a Mockingbird, by Harper Lee is similar to the film version because Scout still gets into a fight to defend the people she cares about and Scout is also still the reason the incident at the jail with the men is stopped, but it’s different because although she has a big role in the book, Aunt Alexandra doesn’t exist in the movie. Some people will do anything to protect the ones they love.
Because of what I've read in the story, I realized that Walter Mitty was a person who dreamed a lot to compensate for his failings in the real world, Mitty creates an entire "secret life" for himself: a series of fantasies in which
Dreams are something you need to sacrifice for achieving what you want to achieve. Mice and men perfectly show that in the novel. They show us that sometimes dreams don’t always come true and people are just stuck in a job loop. Men are trying to stay alive in this unfair very tough hurtful world so are mice. Mice and men have the same goal.
Harper Lee's classic American novel "To Kill a Mockingbird" has entertained readers for decades. The story is a coming-of-age story set in the deep South during the 1930s, dealing with issues of race, justice, and morality. While the novel has been adapted into a film, the two formats have significant differences. I argue in this essay that the novel is more genuine than the film version. Therefore, the novel provides a more genuine portrayal of the story's characters, themes, and message by analyzing textual evidence from the novel.

They have dreams where their lives are changed for the better, and they are changed in a good, positive
“The Secret Life of Walter Mitty” was written from the third person limited omniscient point of view. However, many of the events are filtered through Mitty’s eyes. The contrast between his character in reality and daydreams shows a method of hiding from reality. He gets triggered by something in reality which then causes a dream based off of the trigger. It seems that whenever possible, he delves deep into his dreams, leading to five dreams in only a five-page short story.
