There are comparisons and contrast in the movie and the book “The Outsiders”. For example in both when Ponyboy and Johnny run away from after killing Bob they go on the train to the abandoned church in both. They are similar because in the story and movie Johnny kills bob then runs away with Pony. They go to Dally where he gave them a pistol and told them to jump on the train and get off at the second stop Windrixville and go to the abandoned church on top of jay mountain. Another example of similarities between both is they still have all the main characters in the greaser gang.

A book and a movie can be both the same and different. In The Outsiders there are many similarities and differences with the book and movie. They were the same because Johnny kills a man, they cut their, there was the movie scene, and Johnny and Ponyboy went to the church. Some of the differences is when Darry slaps Ponyboy but in the movie he pushes him, Johnny doesn't bring a lot of food in the book but does in the movie he does, when Johnny killed the man it was more described but it wasn't in the movie, and Johnny says he wants to kill himself in the movie.

In this book report I will talk about the book “The outsiders” written by S.E. Hinton, I will do a review of the story, the point of view, theme, symbols and my opinion about this book I really liked to read for the English class.

The greasers were a middle class and not so social kind of people who liked to get in trouble and The other gang The Socs were a most of them a high class or middle-high class group of people who where they went they will always go in groups of like three or four people.
Hailey Carrillo Mrs. Banks English 10 Honors; A Block 22 March 2016 An “Outsider” The title “The Outsiders” fits perfectly considering that many of the story’s characters are outsiders that don’t seem to fit in. The two social groups: Socs and Greasers have certain standards that their members are expected to meet. The Socs or Social are the rich Westside kids that drive tough fancy cars and prove their superiority by jumping the lower class Greasers who live on the poor East side of town. At first look the members of each gang all seem to blend in like each Soc is exactly the same and every Greaser in just like the other but if you look deeper you can see the true individuality of each character.
