Rebecca: film and novel
As we know that human is always doomed in the past of his life and there are many stories showed us that. One of the stories that discuss these concepts is Rebecca novel was written by Daphne du Maurer in 1938. The story concerns a lady who weds an English aristocrat and comes back with him to Manderley. There, she gets herself frequented by hints of his first wife, Rebecca, Who uttered her breath recent last year. For this situation, the frequenting is mental, not physical: Rebecca does not show up as a bogey, but rather her soul impacts almost everything that happens at Manderley. The narrator, whose name is never unveiled, is left with a developing feeling of doubt toward the individuals who cherished Rebecca, pondering exactly the amount they despise her for assuming Rebecca's position. In the last sections, the book transforms into a criminologist story, as the foremost characters attempt to uncover or disguise what truly happened on the night Rebecca kicked the bucket. They have turned this story to film directed by Alfred Hitchcock in 1940 but sure there are many differences and similarities between the novel and the

film. There are three main similarities between the novel and the film.
First, Mrs. Danvers she's despotic. In the both of the film and novel and we can see that's clearer in the film when you see her eyes you will see evil looks. Second, Rebecca was died before the story start but she's the most important character in this story and she's maxim first wife. Thirdly Maxim has a trial on the murder of Rebecca in novel and film because they thought that maxim killed Rebecca intentionally. And you can see that the story was in Manderley and they don't change that in the film. You can see more than three similarities because the thesis from the novel and the film is one that the human cannot forget his old days and memories but we can see simple changes in figures and some
events. On the other hand, there are three main major differences between the novel and the film. Now I'm going to mention these differences. First, The personality of Mrs. Danvers. Mrs. Danvers is more emotional in the novel but in the film she's not effective enough her face her voice is not impressive. Second, destiny of Mrs. Danvers. They mentioned in novel Mrs. Danvers deports, but in the film she burns the house then she dies. Thirdly, Maxim feelings .In the novel they don't show us that Maxim hate Rebecca but he says that he hate her in the film, Rebecca’s death. Her death in the film is much more graphic when Maxim shots her and Rebecca smiles before she dies. The last deference maxim trays to suicide. In the film he is stands on the edge try to suicide but in the novel they don't shows us that. While reading the novel and watching the movie of Rebecca, there are variety of similarities and differences that I have discovered between the novel and the film. The three remarkable similarities are: Mrs. Danvers despotic , Rebecca death and Maxim trail .In addition , there are three perspicuous personality of Mrs. Danvers , Maxim feelings and Maxim suicide .In my opinion I enjoy reading novels in general because I can imagine the characters . The film is inappropriate for kids because violence it contains. I think children may not like this film because of some verdant scenes.
With both the movie and the book there were similarities and differences involving the names of the characters. Justice Wargrave was known as Author Cannon in the movie. Also, Vera Claythorne was Ann Clyde. Another difference is Philip Lombard was Charles Morman in the movie. However, there were some similar names, Mr. Blores’ name continued to stay the same as well as Dr. Armstrong.
Another similarity in the book and movie is that the characters have to go against their morals in order to decide what to do in certain situations. An example of this in the book is when Skip realises he would have to trespass and steal in order for him to keep himself and his friends alive. Or in...
There are many differences in the movie that were not in the book. In the movie there is a new character in the movie that was not in the book. This character was David Isay.
While watching the movie, I could see that the main characters in the book, both their names and traits, were the same in both the movie and book. However, aside from that there were many different as...
The movie and the story had some of the same characters but some weren't exactly the same. The movie introduced many different characters and changed some of the others. For example, the movie had the plant lady and had the mentor of Anderton as the founders of Precrime while in the book, Anderton was the only founder of Precrime. Also, Witwer wasn't blond he had black hair and Kapler wasn't named Kapler he was named Crow. In the story they had the red head Fleming who did not exist
In both the novel and movie focus on the war. The war influences the characters to enroll.Also, the main setting is at the Devon School. However, in the novel Gene visits Leper at his house but in the movie Leper lives in the woods.In the novel Gene is coming back to the Devon School 15 years later.However, in the book he is coming to Devon as a new student.Therefore, similarities and differences exist in time and setting in the novel and the movie.In the novel and the movie there are similarities and differences in events, character, and time and setting.
When you get to the beginning, middle, or end u realize they are both very different. The movie and book have a lot in common like they both have the same characters .
There are many similarities presented to the audience between the movie and the novel. One
There are several ways that the novel, To Kill a Mockingbird, differs from the movie. There are various scenes in the novel that are not in the film that limit it and maintain that the novel is superior. For example, when it is learned that Tom Robinson is dead following his conviction, is merely hours in the film. In the novel, it is several weeks. By having it only be hours the audience misses out on the significance of Tom's death. A good deal happened between Tom's conviction and his death. He, as well as Atticus, continued to fight for some time after the initial trial and that too added to Bob Ewell's anger towards Atticus and his inevitable need for revenge against him. Another way that the film differs from the novel is that it removes some characters who is absence leaves a void. I am speaking of Atticus' sister, Aunt Alexandra. I feel she was a wonderful character who worked as a foil to Atticus. It is through her actions that the reader comes to truly understand where Atticus comes from and how educated in the ways of the world he is. The mere fact that he comes from such upstanding lineage, bordering on the arrogant and aloof, adds to strength of character. It is because of where he comes from that Atticus manages to be such an even and sound voice of reason in such tumultuous times. Without Aunt Alexandra to represent this background one sees Atticus as a "too good to be true" character.
The similarities are quite apparent, the movie plot mainly follows the basic plot that the book took, leaving the viewer’s with a sense of accomplishment, as this is sometimes not achieved in the highest degree. Scout still has a brother, Jem. They both still meet Dill and have a few adventures with him throughout the film. Jem and Scout still have a single father, Atticus, having lost their mother many years ago. Calpunia is still their cook. And the whole story still has an overpowering sense of focusing on two main stories, Boo Radley (Arthur Radley) and Tom Robinson’s trial.
Both the movie and the book are basically based on family and relationships. The characters in the movie and the book, For example Einar, jean, Griff, and Lila and her parents all deal with loss of a family member.
The first of many important similarities is that in the book as well as the movie, May, August Rosaleen and Lily all
Clarissa Dalloway and Peter Walsh are defined by their memories. Virginia Woolf creates their characters through the memories they share, and indeed fabricates their very identities from these mutual experiences. Mrs. Dalloway creates a unique tapestry of time and memory, interweaving past and present, memory and dream. The past is the key to the future, and indeed for these two characters the past creates the future, shaping them into the people they are on the June day described by Woolf. Peter and Clarissa’s memories of the days spent at Bourton have a profound effect on them both and are still very much a part of them. These images of their younger selves are not broad, all-encompassing mental pictures, but rather the bits and pieces of life that create personality and identity. Peter remembers various idiosyncracies about Clarissa, and she does the same about him. They remember each other by “the colours, salts, tones of existence,” the very essence that makes human beings original and unique: the fabric of their true identities (30).
To begin, there are many similarities and differences in the characters personalities. One similarity would be Aunt polly not having the hear Tom when he was being naughty in both the book and the movie. Another similarity would be Huck and Tom always acting michiviouse they’re always going on adventures and causing trouble for adults. One difference would be Huck in the movie seemed a little self centered, he seemed that way because when he had the chance to help Muff he didn’t want to because he was scared he would be killed by Injun Joe. Another difference would be Muff seemed more caring in the movie like when he was telling stories to the kids and he took them in the cave which made you feel a little sorry ...
The narrative of Mrs. Dalloway may be viewed by some as random congealing of various character experience. Although it appears to be a fragmented assortment of images and thought, there is a psychological coherence to the deeply layered novel. Part of this coherence can be found in Mrs. Dalloway's psychological tone which is tragic in nature. In her forward to Mrs. Dalloway, Maureen Howard informs us that Woolf was reading both Sophocles and Euripides for her essays in The Common Reader while writing Mrs. Dalloway (viii). According to Pamela Transue, "Woolf appears to have envisioned Mrs. Dalloway as a kind of modern tragedy based on the classic Greek model" (92). Mrs. Dalloway can be conceived of as a modern transformation of Aristotelian tragedy when one examines the following: 1) structural unity; 2) catharsis; 3) recognition, reversal, and catastrophe; 4) handling of time and overall sense of desperation.
