Let’s start off with the facts from the beginning all the way to the end, well let’s just say that in the movie there are many differences including all the special effects, makeup, characters, sound effects, and voice acting. Nevertheless, the book would never have those things, you could think of it as you read the book for your entertainment, but it’s not as real as the movie would appear. Even though those aren’t scenes from the movie or novel, it’s still a HUGE difference, but anyways, for the difference between them

The difference I notified the most in the book versus the movie was the details told in the reading, as well as the angles of the camera and the closeups. The camera angles and closeups helped intensify the situations during the movie. The camera movements helped portray the scene. An example of this is during the scene where Bob dies, they had the camera pointing towards their feet, showing Ponyboy and Johnny walking as the blue mustang drives by. It shows how the mustang kept circling them as they are walking to the playground planning to relax and cool down.

You know this if you read the book and then watch the movie you will notice that the movie left some parts out that the book had. An example of this is when in the book The Outsiders it tells a lot about and goes more in-depth about Johnny being jumped by the socs at the beginning and explains why Johnny now goes nowhere without a knife, while the movie barely talks about any of that stuff,
