Inferno Comparison The book and the movie were both incredible. The film and the book were both similar and different. The book has a better ending because it is different. It makes me want to keep on reading and hope that it never stops. The books ending was better than the movies in my opinion. In the books ending they all tried to help save everyone from the virus, in the movies ending only Sinskey and Langdon were the only ones really trying to save all of the people. This essay is going to show you the comparisons between the book Inferno, and the film called Inferno. The book and the movie were both unique in their own way. The book is very different than the movies ending, both the book and the films endings take place in the Cistern and also in Istanbul. In the books ending, Sienna is still alive at the end. In the book the virus is released globally, and made a lot of people become infertile. After the virus is released Langdon chases after Sienna in the streets for a long time, Sienna ends up turning herself in. She explains to Langdon what really happened with the virus. Siennas motivation for the virus and what she wants to do with it in the book is, she wants to stop and hide the virus so …show more content…

Sienna actually dies in the films ending, unlike in the book. Also, in the movie The Provost also known as Henry Simms in both the movie and the book dies as well, unlike in the book he does not. In the movie the virus is contained in a clear container, it explodes but it is in that clear box so it does not actually get released and does not actually hurt anyone. The virus is assumed to be the reason that a lot of deaths happened in the film, but that is not proven. In the film Siennas motivation when it comes to the virus is different that her motivation in the book. Siennas motivation in the film was to release the virus to curb overpopulation, because she wanted to help save the

  • Compare And Contrast Bernice Bobs Her Hair

    866 Words  | 2 Pages

    How the story ends in the book is totally different from the movie. In the book, it ends with Bernice, holding her luggage in one hand, and the two braids that were cut off of Marjorie in the other, she has an impulse to do something pretty nice, in my opinion, by throwing the braids onto Warren's porch, laughed, then ran down the street. In the movie, however, she takes the braids and throws them into the car, then walks away. In that way of ending a film, I think that it doesn't make as much of a statement as it did when she threw the braids onto Warren's porch in the book. By ending the film like the book did, what you get from it is more of an reaction and a bigger impacted statement. There is also more that's unknown to the end of the story that people watching will want to know about. When watching the film, the ending leaves you with just thinking about what Marjorie will wake up to with short hair and how she'll react when finding Bernice missing and the braids in the car. But when you read the book, it leaves you with not only what you get in the movie, but it puts Warren into the mix. How Bernice created a relationship with Warren is what caused Marjorie to become jealous and more hurtful to Bernice since she previously had a relationship with him as well. Another thing that stands out is how Bernice's and Marjorie's hair color is flipped. Bernice is the one who is supposed to

    For starters, the ending of the movie was very different from the book. Instead of Vera hanging herself and everyone ends up being dead like in the book, the director of the movie makes a plot twist to make the movie end with two survivors. Philip Lombard and Vera Claythorne are the two survivors who find out who the killer is. They are the only ones alive to escape. Another small change that occured was when some of the victims died for example, Emily Brent. Instead of expecting that everyone dies and there being no resolution, the director decided to make that change so that there could be hope for the

  • The Things They Carried & A Soldiers Sweetheart

    Stark contrasts exist between the description of the characters and emotional content between the book and the movie. This may be mainly due to the limited length of the movie. In the movie, Rat Kiley who is telling the story seems gentler. In the book they make it seem like everything Rat says is exaggerated, but the movie does not stress that fact. “Among the men in Alpha Company, Rat had a reputation for exaggeration and overstatement, a compulsion to rev up the facts, and for most of us it was normal procedure to discount sixty or seventy percent of anything he had to say” (O’Brien 89). Also, the movie emphasizes the fact that Rat Kiley fell in love with Mary Anne Bell. He himself says he loved her towards the end of the movie. A character that people may tend to have sympathy for is Mark Fossie. In the book, one may not feel for Fossie. The movie shows the character having more feeling especially after he couldn’t find Mary Anne. A third character that is portrayed differently in the movie than in the book is Mary Anne, who is the main female character of the chapter. The movie stressed the fact that Mary Anne wanted to learn more about the Vietnamese way of life. There was a scene in the movie where Mary Anne spent time with the Vietnamese soldiers learning their language and how to cook their food. They also show her going ...

    The movie's opening scene gives allusions to Dante's own life and his brief courtship with Beatrice. Chris (Robin Williams) begins, "When I was young, I met this beautiful girl on a lake," just as Dante had met Beatrice when he was young. This lake just happens to be on the boarder of Switzerland and Italy, Dante's native country. Anna, Chris' love, finds him sitting on a hillside overlooking that lake, and that scene will become a major focus for the rest of the movie. They believe that they are soul mates, and unlike Dante and Beatrice, Chris and Anna marry and have two children.

  • Cannibal To Zombie And Back Again By Chera Kee's Better Off Dead

    1643 Words  | 4 Pages

    The fight against the zombie metaphor within World War Z gives the reader a purpose for finding a way to hold on to hope, and to ultimately celebrate life, ideally a healthy one, itself. With the zombie metaphor referring to uncontrollable fears in today’s modern society, the thriller is a realistic speculation about an airborne virus entering the human species and spreading on a global scale. With influenza outbreaks being a familiar scenario within modern society, the fear of an uncontrollable disease sends shockwaves of fear through the human race, especially when a vaccine has yet to be found and distributed, as in the film. The fear of a viral infection spreading stems from the idea that people do not simply “give” another individual the virus; a virus is a form of life that evolves and mutates in order to survive environmental changes.

  • Compare And Differences In The Divine Comedy, And Inferno

    1216 Words  | 3 Pages

    The Divine Comedy and the Bible are similar and different in many ways. Dante includes Paradiso (Heaven), Purgatory, and Inferno (Hell) in The Divine Comedy. It talks about where people go when they die. The Bible differs from this because there is only Heaven and Hell. There is not a middle place, such as Purgatory, where people go to repent of their sins even after death. Also, unlike Inferno, Hell is not split up into many categories. In the Bible they go straight into Heaven or Hell. Also, everyone’s new bodies in the two stories are different. The Divine Comedy and the Bible have several complex ideas, and the comparisons and contrasts of the two are interesting.
