The Grains Of Paradise
The Grains of Paradise is a short story that was made into a movie later. The Grains Paradise was about a guy that eat chili and doesn't get fazed by it at all.
Another guy saw him eating them like it was nothing so he said he would like to challenge him to this other guy who can eat any other chili without no fear.

I say this because when the main character arrived to the little village all the people were kind of just standing there looking at him walk through. For an example the people were kind of looking at him all weird cause he was just walking through like nothing. Last but not least we also got to see the facial expressions. I saw this because when they were talking to the main character he looked like he was just paying attention to

It seems like directors of the movie always leave out parts from the book, only incorporating the important parts from the story. Some also say that they prefer to leave the descriptions of things in the book up to their imagination. Also, when you are reading the book, you get to read the main characters point of view on things.

Yet the distinct differences between them also affect the plots to an extent to which the suspense in the movie is less compared to the novel. Although the differences greatly alter the two, it makes each of them unique and exclusive from each other. Despite these differences, there is one theme that links both the novel and the movie together: that people with different personalities, interests, and appearances are also the same to each other.

Because of this, we would recommend the book and film to those who experience a likeliness to the conflicts in each storyline, such as a fight between two different social
