"The Luncheon" by W. Somerset is a wonderfully written story‚ but the variation by Jeffrey Archer is equally as enticing. Both narratives tell of an author who is struggling to make ends meet‚ but sees his big break at a very expensive luncheon. I like both of the stories because although they have the same plot the twists at the end make them completely different. At first I wondered how the same story could be comparable‚ let only different‚ but I was wrong. These two variation are vastly analogous

The critically acclaimed film‚ Memento directed by Christopher Nolan explores the consciousness and unconsciousness of a man who suffers from short-term memory loss.

Since the film is inspired by the narrative there are multiple similarities that can be found in connection to the short story. Though

Macbeth‚ let alone any shakespeare play‚ would be difficult to portray because so many people have different opinions about the the scene should be. Shakespeare’s does not make this challenge any easier because he sets it up so the reader/viewer can make some interpretations his/herself. These two portrayals of Macbeth‚ the Kenneth Branagh and the Mel Gibson version‚ are extremely opposite to one another. Of course they still tell the story of Macbeth‚ but there is much controversy over who did it

The two characters selected for comparison are Gary from The Jacket and myself. Gary’s character request a jacket with a detailed description‚ but ultimately receives a jacket that inspires nightmares.

In your opinion what’s your favorite fairy tale? Personally my favorite is the story of Rumplestiltskin. I like the story because I like that Rumplestiltskin is a devious little fellow and he tricks people by pretending to do a favor but he always does a favor for a price and he has a high price for favors. While the characters of Rumplestiltskin and Helen are the same but mom and dad switch roles in the story which makes it have a different perspective‚ also the setting is similar but the storyline

They stand up for Mrs. Wright because they have some suspicion that Mrs. Wright was being abused by Mr. Wright. In the beginning

Have you ever read a good book and then the movie was totally different or even slightly different? When a book is made into a movie it will alway be different. The directors have to pick what they find the most important because a movie can only be so long‚ while a book can be as long as it wants. While picking the parts they want they miss minor details or even huge parts of the plot or they even change things and make them their own. That’s exactly what happened when Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
