The last thing is the tone of his voice an example is his voice drops a view octaves because he is getting nervous and trying to think of something to say. It is better in the movie because you can hear how he actually feels and in the book you are. Just listening to another person talk. Another way to say it is maybe it should be said in a man's voice to make it more

“The power of words, written or spoken, have life. They can change the world.” (search quotes). The power of words should not be underestimated. Liesel proves this to be true in the novel and the film The Book Thief. She uses words to develop relationships with her foster father, Hans Hubermann; Max Vandenburg, the illicit Jew in her basement; and her neighbours. In the novel The Book Thief by Markus Zusak there is much more relationship development compared to the film The Book Thief directed by Brian Percival. This consequently causes the theme of the power of words to be less prominent in the film.

After reading The Giver I had high expectations for the movie to be just like the book. I was hoping that the ending would be better explained. . Don't get me wrong, Lois Lowry did an amazing job, I just feel that the ending happened too quickly and it was not detailed enough. Concerned with the ending of her book I thought that watching Phillip Noyce movie The Giver would clearly thing up. I was obviously wrong, it was too serious, I mean for the most parts it was OK, but the book was a little more chill. Another thing that bothered me was the chief elder, she only appeared in the book like twice, but in the movie she was like in every other scene. Really it was like they were trying to put her everywhere and make her like one of the main

The character may act a certain way as one are reading, then act another way as one watch the film.

imagination by the hand. There are not that many things that are different in the

Wes Andersons’ ‘Grand Budapest’ and Mark Zusak’s ‘The Book Thief’ both have unique narration styles which are similar in some aspects but then are different in others, this meaning that both comparisons and contrasts can be drawn from the two different forms of text. The Book Thief has a very unique narration style which is told in first person by ‘Death’, death basically guides us through the novels using different sections such as parts, characters, brief descriptors and sub – headings. Death’s narration style is unique for the fact that he wants to be treated like a human and towards the end he shows emotion. By the author using Death he is able to offer a unique perspective and relation on all the death and dying which was occurring during

Did you know that most people can only see black and white in The Giver? The Giver, by Lois Lowry, is about a seemingly perfect community that has lots of weird, strict rules to keep the peace. Everything is the same, so no one gets jealous. Jonas is a member of the community along with his two friends, Fiona and Asher. But when Jonas is chosen to be the new receiver instead of receiving a normal assignment like his friends, everything changes.

The difference between the developing way of books and movies is magnificently huge because the way of emotion transmitting is different; the movie is based on vision, while the book is based on words.

Liesel Meminger sits on the train with her mother and younger brother, only to look over and find that her brother dies in her mothers arms. As they bury her brother, the gravedigger drops a book and Liesel picks it up and takes it with her. It is the only left that she has to remember her brother. She is then taken to her new foster parents, Rosa and Hans Hubermann. Upon her arrival, she meets Rudy Steiner who will be her best friend until the end; his end at least.

Due to the text’s complexityz and the author’s peculiar writing style, it took me quite a while to get into the story, thus reducing my reading speed considerably. But, once I was one third into the book, I started to really enjoy it and, as the narrative became more and more complex, I became aware of how much the book and the movie differ.

In this movie, they take out many parts from the book. This does not necessarily change a lot of the initial concepts but it has an effect. When something is taken out, like a suicide attempt, it takes the intensity out of the movie that was received from the book. Though the movie teaches the lesson that the book does, it does not have the strength it did as in the book. That connect people get from reading

When there were bomb raids approaching the town, the people gathered in a small basement and Liesel began to read to everyone there. It is amazing how her words would calm everyone present and made them forget that they could possibly die at any given moment. When everything in her life is at a downfall, reading and writing takes Liesel out of this cruel world. That is the main reason why she is attracted to words and books. Words kept her alive in a dull world but also literally kept her living. She was reading in that basement when the bombs hit her street so it saved her. She also developed relationships with people with words and storytelling. In a time like this, a normal conversation will not help. But in order to distract one from reality the best way to do that is to share stories. Max Vandenburg is not in great condition when he arrives, but creates a special bond with Liesel through words. The two have frequent nightmares about their past and losing the ones that they care about the most. Though all this has happened, they both enjoy to story tell and that’s how their bond grows. "Trust me, though, the words were on their way, and when they arrived, Liesel would hold them in her hands like the clouds, and she would wring them out, like the rain (85)". Liesel’s words effected her situation and the perspective of it so much. As words bought friendship to Liesel, it also bought
