How The Misunderstood Life Of Harrison Bergeron Compare And Contrast

It was the repugnance and disturbing year of 2081,and everybody was told that they were all equal but they were not.Some people had to wear big heavy metal boxes with headphones.Others had to wear mask to cover up their beauty.This devastating thing happens in both the short story and short film “Harrison Bergeron”. Even though these two entertaining pieces are talking about the misunderstood life of Harrison Bergeron they have the same settings and theme, but have different characterization, mood, and dialogue.
