To Kill a Mockingbird Movie and Novel Comparison In the book by Harper Lee and the 1962 film by Robert Mulligan‚ about the story To Kill a Mockingbird‚ they both express the main idea of racial discrimination and human rights. The movie based off of the book does a great job of keeping the same idea that existed throughout the novel. Although they both have the same concepts there are differences between the two that give one over the other a better view on the story under some circumstances.

Within a new trend in the Movies Industry‚ a lot of classic books are selected to be turned into films for the big screen. This is the case of the epic poem Beowulf‚ which dates from Anglo Saxon times and is considered as the earliest poem in the modern European language.

The book The Maze Runner by James Dashner is not much like the movie in my opinion. I like the book better than the movie because is has more details and the movie doesn’t have everything the book has. The movie is about Thomas the protagonist who has is put into a maze with a bunch of other teenagers and has to search the maze for a way out. He has no memory of his past and all he can do it try and find the exit to the maze. The book and movie are similar but not that closely the same to me. Some

In Bram Stoker’s Dracula the director changes the plot in a few different instances but for the most part‚ the director keeps the same plotline. Some similarities between the book and the movie are: the genre and setting‚ loss of personal power‚ and the gothic features.

In Antigone‚ Sophocles uses allusions to praise her courage in accepting her fate. Antigone shared many similarities to Danae. In Ode 4 as the chorus describes the misfortune of Danae it is stated that “a prisoner hidden in a chamber like a tomb‚ although she too‚ came from a noble line. And she my child had in her care the liquid streaming golden seed of Zeus‚”(line 2-4). This mirrors Antigone in the way that Antigone is too thrown into a cave and looked in it as if it was her tomb. Danae was imprisoned

in the book in many aspects. First of all‚ unlike the journeys in the book‚ this journey occurred very recently. The surrounding and environment in the journey are almost the same as ours today. Another difference is that people in this journey were quite desperate to go on the journey. They were willing to do anything to escape from North Korea. As a result‚ many of them were separated from each other and ended up in different places all over. On the other hand‚ the journeys in the book moved in
