An item that is different is that many characters are not heirs and some aren’t even in the movie like in the novel. For example, Flora Baumbach wasn’t in the movie to be a mother figure for Turtle because Grace Wexler was being a good mother to Turtle. Also, another person that was not in the movie was Theo Theodorakis, and he wasn’t in the movie because Chris was already the one playing chess. Doug Hoo was in the movie, but he was not in The Westing Game itself. Another big difference was that Sydelle Pulaski wasn’t the mistake like she was in the novel.
One of the changes was in the characters. Look at Clarisse for example. In the book she was a 16 year old girl who didn’t go to school because people thought that she was “antisocial” and she didn’t fit in. In the movie she is much older she looks to be in her mid 30s and is not a student instead she’s a teacher.
The first, obvious, difference between them, is that most of the movie took place in a town or city, not a country or farm like in the story. I definitely liked the story version with the farm much better than the city setting. I felt like it was cleaner and easier to understand whereas the movie’s town setting made it a bit more hectac. Although the city gave the plot more action, I thought, the farm made it more spooky and creepy, which I preferred. The last difference is the fact that the main character in the the movie was a female, when the main character in the story is a male.
The first difference that I have immediately noticed is that the story starts out in the middle at Frank’s funeral, but the movie starts out in a field. Another difference in the movie is the absence of Frank's sister, Cathleen and older brother, Steve who we read about in the story. " Next day Steve drove with his wife back to Baltimore where he managed the branch office of a bank, and Cathleen, the middle child, drove with her husband back to Syracuse." (p. 80) Moreover, in both versions the characters have different jobs, for example Matt owns a store in the story.
The major difference is the ending, which was made different in order to make the movie more adequate to the public, which consists mainly of
Both adaptations have amazing qualities. However, one is better than the other. The first difference I noticed between the films are the costumes. In the original the costumes were much darker and only had one color scheme. The main colors of this film were black, white, grey, yellow, and a small amount of red, black being the focal point.
The story of Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare revolves around Romeo and his troubling love life. Romeo overcomes many obstacles and broken hearts on his journey to find the love of his life with his best friend Mercutio by his side. A young Juliet walks into Romeo’s life leaving him speechless and amazed, but their parent’s rivalry will end up being the reason why Romeo and Juliet kill themselves, so they won't have to live a life without each other. Although Romeo and Mercutio are best friends, they are both very different in the way they live their life. Although they both are very friendly and caring people, Mercutio and Romeo differ in their feelings about love and how serious they take life.
For example, why does Willy Wonka act the way that he does? You see that answer in the Johnny Depp version, when they explore his childhood and he has flashbacks to his childhood; his father was a dentist who was not a fan of Charlie’s career choice and opposed children eating chocolate. Also, the Johnny Depp version is spot on to the book as if the book has come to life. It fits that void of the first one not being exactly like the book. Overall, both movies were good even though they had vast
In both versions of the film, there were many characteristics and events that were extremely similar. For example the scene where Nick is at Daisy’s house and he is describing the white curtains hanging from the ceiling. Also both the old and new movie took place in New York City during the roaring 20’s.
The newer version displays a more dramatic standpoint than the 1953 film because there is such a change in setting that was not shown in the original
Shakespeare wrote Romeo and Juliet in year 1595. Disney made the animated film, Gnomeo and Juliet, in 2011. Gnomeo & Juliet is a computer-animated, comedic recreation of Shakespeares masterpiece. In sed movie, all of the human characters are replaced by lawn decorations. There are 3 major differences and 3 major similarities between the two.
This is mainly because these two works were made in different centuries and for different audiences. The takeaway from this is that whenever there is a retelling of a classic tale, details are changed and the different versions will not be the same. The character portrayal, character relationships, and resolution were altered by David Attwood to make the movie appeal to
Romeo and Juliet Compare and Contrast Although Romeo and Juliet grew up in two different households meant to hate each other from the day of their birth, these two star crossed lovers find each other in a different light. In the play The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet By William Shakespeare, Romeo being a Montague and Juliet being a Capulet were born into this family feud. The two of them fall in love at a party where Romeo was out looking for the original girl he was in love with, Rosaline, and Juliet was there to meet her future husband Paris. With love playing a huge part in this play, it's concluded that Romeo and Juliet are both a Eros kind of lover.
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.
Also, Valette rearranged certain parts from the original, in the original you didn 't know about any children till towards the end. When we watch our remake, the first scene is of a little girl in a burning building, talk about foreshadowing. One important change that I noticed is that Miike did not have a scene in the beginning of the film of a girl drowning, but Valette did in fact have that
