In The Invention of Hugo Cabret vs. Hugo‚ the element of character relationships in the book and the movie are developed very differently.

The Great Gatsby movie vs. book In his movie there were many details that remained loyal to the book. There were some others that were changed slightly‚ either for filming reasons or for careless from the director.

The movie showed many things as they are described in the book‚ and also as many people imagined them. The golden toilette set‚ the medals and Daisy’s picture
