My theory on The Westing Game is Flora Baumbach is the killer. I believe she is the killer because she was super excited when she found out Turtle was here partner (pg. 33). Her next victim could be Turtle for kicking her in the shin. She also would want to kill Sam because of his daughter's wedding.
The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin is very innovative and mysterious. The book and movie is full of mysteries and red herrings. The Westing Game contains many similarities and differences that are worth reading about. The Westing Game, is about a young girl named Turtle who takes on a murder mystery. Samuel W.

There are many simularities and differences in the book and movie " The
In the end I found the film to be easier to understand vs the book as it was an easier and more straight forward plot line whereas in the book it seemed to jump around leading to constant flipping between stories and pages to get a better
Many people, if asked what they would prefer, would prefer to read the book instead of watching the movie. It could be because the movie will always leave some parts from the story out. 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.
The book shows the effectiveness of the small town of Odessa. But the movie shows the effectiveness of the football team. But only in the book does it go into great depths about the history of the town. It describes the town 's boom and bust years. It also goes into great detail about rival cities and their boom and bust years.
Daniel Aguirre Ms. Tobias English III GT - 6th 12 January 2017 After analyzing both the movie and the novel, I have discovered similarities and differences. Ill try to compare and contrast the two since the movie does not depict the story exactly as how the novel does. Similarities There were still some similarities in the film that tied back to the book. One of the main ones is when Nick walks to Gatsby’s backyard and finds him standing at the edge of his dock reaching out to what was a green light.
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. The book shows more examples of this theme than the movie, making the novel more understanding to other individuals than the film itself. 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
Orson Scott Card’s Ender’s Game was published in 1985 and brought about many opinions and views. One such opinion turned into an essay by a person named John Kessel, who published Creating the Innocent Killer in Foundation, The International Review of Science Fiction in 2004. John Kessel detailed how Card created Ender for the purpose of garnering the audience’s sympathy to distract them from Ender’s bad deeds. But Kessel’s argument provides many facts and statistics from different qualified people, so whether people agree with him or not, he makes several true points and arguments that nobody can disagree with.
The first thing that stood out to me was the way the directors of the movies cut out very important scenes from the book that needed to be in the movie for it to make sense. An example of this is the scene in the
So even though there are a few similarities, there are more differences. The movie is mainly about civil rights, but the book isn’t which changes the plot a lot. While there are some similarities like how all the family members are the same; there are still more differences. Even though both the book and the movie are “Watsons Go To Birmingham”, they are very different from each
In the movie and book there were many similarities. One similarity was that there was the movie scene where they meet Cherry and
Firstly, in my opinion I think it has more details than the movie. The book has the same characters but in the book there is three sisters. The book had details that felt so real. It described everything, the setting and the mood.
In my opinion there are a lot of comparisons between the film and the book, but there are also differences between them too, but also they have impacted the audience in both the film and the
According to Hall, discursive formation that accompanied colonialism was “the West/the Rest” (89). It emerged from asserting a new sense of identity to unify internal relations in Europe, such as Christianity, and it legitimated colonialism by imprinting the Western (European) “culture and customs on the new worlds” (Hall 197, 195). The new identities distinguished the West from the Rest while producing certain knowledge of the Rest: “an Earthly Paradise” “the simple, innocent life”, and “the lack of developed social organization and civil society”, and “people living in a pure state of Nature” (204, 209). In other words, the discourses through languages and images produced “meaningful knowledge” about the Others, and the Others is categorized
