    Henrietta Lacks Book Report

    Usually when talking about a movie or a book, it hard to discuss the similarities and the differences. Because sometimes a movie can be more influencing than a book and vice versa. When I first started reading the book The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, I was confused at first but then as I kept reading, I realized how things can go a certain way and how one person can make a change in the whole world without even meaning to. Personally, what I…

    In many movies there is a book created before the movie so the movie can base it off the book. Such as unbroken, a story of a man that was never broken after being held prisoner in japan during WWII, this book was made before the movie and came out completely different. The movie only took the important parts of the book such as running in the olympics and being held prisoner. In the movie there are many key differences between the book and the movie, but they both are still very similar. There are so many books and movies like that.…

    Tuck Everlasting Similarities

    One similarity between the characters is that they heard the mind-blowing news from the Tucks. Although they heard it in different ways, they both heard it from the Tucks. The stranger intentionally eavesdropped on the Tucks while they explained the whole story to Winnie. Another similarity between them is that at one point, Winnie and the stranger both wanted the spring water to acquire immortality. After Angus Tuck tells Winnie in desperation for her not to drink the water, Winnie does not want to drink the water anymore. Living forever does sound good when you first ponder about it, but when you really think it through, all of the cons about immortality weigh out the good things. Winnie thinks, “Why, she, too might live forever in this remarkable world she was only just discovering! [....] not one of them noticed that the [...] man in the yellow suit, had crept up to the bushes by the stream and heard it all, the whole fantastic story” (Babbitt 22). Also, we know that the stranger is longing for the water when the author describes, “his mouth, above the thin, gray beard, turned ever so slightly toward a smile” (Babbitt 22-23). This happened right after we read that the stranger was listening to the Tucks for the whole period of time. Even though the stranger and Winnie are different people entirely, they also possess a couple of…

    Into The Wild Movie Vs

    The number one thing I noticed in the movie that was different in the book is that Carine (his sister) tells the entire story. During the book though, the narrator position changes between interviewers and people he met. I think that by having Carine tell the story, the movie was a little more understandable. The book was a little complex because it is hard to determine who is telling the story.…

    A River Runs Through It Essay

    One thing in particular that the book does much better is making use of complex metaphors and themes, such as: the river for life, and oneness with nature, that string themselves together as you turn each page of the book, while in the movie the metaphors and symbolism are represented in a much different way through picture. In the book, both themes regarding the river are very vivid and clear, as they use strong imagery of nature to draw pictures in the minds of the readers. In the movie both themes are represented and referred to much less because of the lack of narration.…
