Differences Between The Crucible Book And Movie
The Crucible Comparison
This story was written by Arthur Miller in 1953. He wrote this story to show his society what was going to happen to them if they didn't get straighten their heads and to show them how foolish they were for acting like they were in the 1600's. They were going through a time called the Cold War. People were being arrested for saying things like a communist. This is kind of what was happening during the Salem Witchcraft. This is the way the society was going in Millers time. There were three differences in the book and the movie. The book added in the rooster crowing in the background at the end when John was about to be taken to be hung which was very helpful because it showed some different symbols.

Plays are my favorite types of literature because there is a lot of action and there are a lot more characters in a play. This play was a good play and I enjoyed reading it and listening to it. Overall this play was a very well written play with a good message and it was very interesting. It was also a true story which also made it
