The most important similarity between the book and the movie is that the plot is very much the same. Quite often in book-to-movie adaptations, the movie has the same characters and some similar plot elements, but it seems that very few movies are a solid visual representation of what the book actually is. To Kill a Mockingbird, the movie, is a very good representation of the book in many ways: the actors accurately portray their characters, all the major plot points are shown, and the setting is the same. However, the way in which the movie and the book portray certain emotions or depict different scenes is, what I would consider, the greatest difference. In the book, the only way to describe scenes and characters and emotions is through words.
Another way Scout has changed since the beginning of the book is she understands people have both good and bad qualities that coexist within them, as she becomes closer to an adult and encounters evil in the world. 20. Miss Gates’ lesson to the class about Hitler’s prosecution of Jew’s is ironic, because she herself came out of the courthouse after the trial ended and responded by telling Miss Stephanie Crawford that “it was about time that someone taught them a lesson” when referring to the blacks in the town. It reveals that most people during that time where racist and prejudice to some extent in Maycomb. An example that is similar in our current society portrayed in this chapter is how white males get paid the highest salary, but people of other races and women get paid lower salaries for

The trial was a crucial scene in the movie that displayed strong, well-devised, and included many exceptional actors. On the contrary, some important moments, people, and lessons in the book were removed from the movie that created a different meaning to the whole story. Calpurnia and Dolphus Raymond were two main characters in the novel that taught valuable lessons to not only Jem and Scout, but to readers across the world. These characters should have been more integrated in the movie to build a stronger more meaningful plot.
Between the film and the novel version of To Kill A Mockingbird there are many differences between the two, and it is my job to tell you some of these differences between the two. First of all, probably the biggest difference is that there is no Aunt Alexandra at all in the movie, she’s invisible if she even is there. Secondly, they took it a little too harsh on Tom Robinson in the book, shooting him seventeen times and killing him. However, in the movie Tom tried to escape and the guard meant to just wound him but ended up being a bad shot, (unlike Atticus is, being one-shot and all) and ended up killing him. There was no lunch scene in the movie version.
Readers look to Scout as a test to character and innocence. As Scout is only six years old in the beginning of the novel, she is unaware of the surrounding bigotry in her town, Maycomb. Unlike many of the characters in the novel, she is able to look at the world in a unique perspective due to her innocence and influence from her activist father, Atticus
Scout learned that everyone is equal as a person and not just a lesser living person. This also teaches myself and other people to apply this to our own lives. For example, if you see a person on the street ragged and asking for money, most people think that they should just get a job or do something productive. In reality we should think more widely and just think about what happened to that poor man to get him to this point. Think about all the things that he has lost instead of comparing him to your own life and luck.
Scout then began to realize that the town of Maycomb isn’t what she had it out to be. Evil things happen, moreover, people have numerous sides to themselves. Ultimately, Scout becomes a mature, young adult with

“You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view - until you climb into his skin and walk around in it”(30). This quote is said by the wise man named Atticus Finch. This is saying that you never really know what someone’s life is like until you become them and walk around, living their life. Prince Edward from “Prince and the Pauper” is very similar to the character, Calpurnia from “To Kill a Mockingbird”, and Edward is very different from Scout. Prince Edward from “Prince and the Pauper” is very similar to the character, Calpurnia from “To Kill a Mockingbird”.
Famous American novelist and humorist Mark Twain once said, “Comparison is the death of joy.” That statement is most certainly true when one compares himself or herself to other people with regards to worldly possessions. It is so easy to look at others who sport designer jeans, speed down the highway in a Mercedes Benz, and live in the most fashionable and sought after neighborhoods and become at least mildly envious. In that respect, comparison most certainly can be the death of joy.
She didn 't fully understand what was going on therefore can 't comprehend the miscarriages of justice. As she can 't fully compose adult commentary, the novel was shown in innocence. One advantage of reading this novel from Scout 's point of view is when she experiences something for the first time, so does the reader. Such as when she goes to Cal 's church and experiences the bitterness some black members have towards white members in
