Would you rather want something set and not able to change, or have it your way all the way through? This question is what I am talking about today. The topic I am talking about is the comparison between The Outsiders movie, and The Outsiders book. One reason the experience is always different is because of the person who is interpreting its interpretation or the maker’s interpretation. Many people believe that people can learn multiple ways, for example, there are auditory, visual, and verbal learning

Have you ever read a book then watched the movie based on the book? Well you probably noticed that the movie adaptation of the book is a little different than the book. You might see subtle changes like the characters may have glasses in the book and not in the movie. Or you might see more drastic changes like the ending being completely different.

War for the Planet of the Apes directed by Matt Reeves is a difficult movie to evaluate. The trailer, poster, and even the title presented the idea of a full scale conflict between the apes and the humans that will determine the fate of nature, but this film only contains two action sequences. This advertisement created a misleading expectation that the film did not present at all; this makes the film difficult to review because after viewing the movie, I was conflicted on whether the movie was enjoyable

A story about family ties, consequences and memories. This is what Soderbergh’s The Limey is mainly about. The film exquisitely utilizes editing, casting as well as re-purposing of another movie in order to deliver a theme of regret and nostalgia.

From these 15 seconds the audience knows most

The Man Who Inspired All Cinderella Man was by far my favorite film throughout this semester. James J. Braddock and his wife, Mae, demonstrate how hard it is to stay strong and keep loving through terrible times.

Jim had been broken down and lost everything, but still managed to survive and fight his way back up. Jim’s wife, Mae, nearly

We get to see two varying prose styles when we read the works of Harriet Jacobs in Diary of a Slave Girl and Stephen Crane in The Red Badge of Courage. While one embraces the idea of realism, the other one takes a completely different route and embraces naturalism in their work. However, what is of key interest is the difference noted is the differences noted between the works of the two artists as far as the realistic and conventional nature is concerned. A review of the Diary of a Slave Girl by

There are minor differences in the screenplay and the script. The first difference is between the first shot of the old house standing against the sky and the next shot of Lila. In the script the directions given are for a close up shot when in the actual screenplay it is a full length shot of Lila. Further on, there is another change right after the shot of the house and the porch. Lila stops and does not glance back to the house, she just goes straight up to the door and goes in. Hitchcock put
