    disappointed in the movie because it left out some of the main scenes. On the other hand‚ the movie is 2 hours and 9 minutes. The movie never leaves you predicting what will happen next. Nevertheless‚ our opinions are that we favored the book over the movie. Everyone in the class notices many differences between the book and the movie. Provided that the book gives detail that the movie cannot show it is a missing part in itself. Aunt Alexandra was not even mentioned in the movie. You didn’t see Scout

By reading this story‚ you learn about the themes of mortality and the power of words which aren’t as present in the film. Max‚ in the film‚ appears to be nothing more than another helpless and weak Jew. He is in hiding

    ENG.2 5/23/2011 The Road The Road was both a phenomenal book and film. While reading The Road I was both intrigued and interested as to how Hollywood would portray this story‚ and after seeing the movie I was impressed with how closely the film followed the book.

Though the movie followed the book closely‚ there were some differences such as the amount of flashbacks the father has‚ the illusion of hope

Vehicles and phones have evolved drastically‚ people have established more respectable morals (“guy code”)‚ and polo is not as popular of a sport as its shown in the movie.
