The Giver Movie Vs Book Analysis

All in all there were many things different about the book compared to the movie.

Normally, when a movie is made about a story in a book the two stories are not exactly the same. The movie is adjusted by adding small details or leaving out some parts in order to make the story more

This essay is about comparing the Giver book and movie. The Giver is a story about a boy named Jonas who was chosen to be the community’s next Receiver of Memory. He lived in a community where everything was chosen for the citizens, and everything was perfect. During Jonas' training, he realized that the community was missing something and that there was more in the world. Jonas wanted the everybody to know that. The Giver book was then made into a movie. Though the two were based on the same story, there are three important differences that could've made them two separate stories. The three main differences between the book and the movie are Asher and Fiona's Assignments, the similarity all Receivers had and the Chief Elder's role.

The Giver is both best-selling book by Lois Lowery and a major motion picture. They are both centered on the same storyline and character but also have some major differences. “The movie (and the book) takes place in the confines of “the community,” something that started after “the ruin,” when all memories were erased and everyone became equal.” (Krule, 2014). The book and the movie and the book are very different in many ways such as the plot, characters and concepts. The book and movie are more different than they are similar, although there are a few similarities.

He threw Jonas with Gabe in a lake which is bad, and how it was good is because they were in a desert and there was no water so Asher threw them in the lake which has water for them to drink. Fiona’s job is a nurturer in the movie, which is a nurse and takes care of the babies in the nurturing center. But in the book, she gets a job in the House of Old which does not exist in the movie. She is Assigned Caretaker of the Old. “...Fiona was given the important Assignment of Caretaker of the Old” (pg. 71). The House of Old is a house with old people and someone takes care of them. Fiona’s job didn’t help Jonas in the book, but her job in the movie did because he went to the nurturing center and told Fiona to let me take Gabe and she showed Jonas where Gabe was. Then there were these guys that came to the nurturing center to take Jonas. But Fiona took an empty box that was supposed to have a baby and the 3 guys chased Fiona and Jonas left.

Both the novel and the film share indistinguishable qualities. For example,They both have the same places as the novel.There were the DX,Tasty Freeze,the lot,the church,and the characters houses.Since they had the same places the same things happened.They have the same places so,they have the same scenes.However,they seem identical, they have a lot of differences.

Where to start with Jonas? I don't even know where to start but what went wrong with Jonas in the book he was suppose to be 12 but the actor that plays him in the movie is like 18, what a big jump. I guess i know why they did it, they did it for there can be romance in the book because it would be weird if they're little kids making out and doing romantic stuff. I can happily say Jonas full filled his role as a main/leading character.

When we saw the movie and the book and saw the movie, there were a couple of thing that they did not mention or did in the movie. In the movie they cut out some thing from the book. They did not really put everything they said in the book into the movie. They also did not really get some people personal feature. Here are something that were different from the movie, than what it said from the book.

I feel that as a reader they could tell me how he felt compared to showing me how he felt. The actor in the movie really showed me how he felt and in the book told me how he felt. The actor in the movie really showed the emotion and determination to get home to his family again,this was shown so well to me I felt like I was in the same situation,all the horrible things that happened to him happened to me.The examples were the reason I felt the book and the movie were different.

The actor choices from the film compare to what the book envisioned, but also contrast. The character of Daisy is not similar in the film to what the book

When watching the film, the first difference the viewer can see between the book and the movie is how the characters are portrayed. A notable example would be Carlson. In the film,

You are about to experience a brief compare and contrast paper between reality and a fantasy. In which our world is no long a mass chaos but everyone is equal to each other. I am going to compare the book to the movie. Many things are different and most are the same, but i'm going to point of the differences today between the movie and the book.

The Giver, a book by Lois Lowry, and The Giver, the movie version, have more differences than similarities. The movie changes some details to fit into the new themes and expectations of the film. There are some similarities between the two, such as the general idea of a community based off of Sameness and order. However, there are many differences in things like the themes, the plot, the symbols, and the characters that just cannot be neglected. The movie is more different to the book than similar because it removes important details, such as Jonas’ pale eyes, limiting exposure to themes like government surveillance, and changing the ending of the movie to being more literal.

Another key difference between the book and film is that the Maze is located underground in the book, but it is located outside in the film leaving it open to the elements instead of the climate being controlled in the book. Another big thing I noticed was how Chuck dies. Gally throws a knife in the book, but he uses a gun in the movie.

I think that the movie was somewhat faithful to the book, The Giver. The reason why I think this, is because in the movie they included some of the important ideas and facts from the book, but they changed major points that were in the book. Below are some of the major points that I noticed they changed. The first change I noticed in the book was when Jonas received memories from the Giver he was laying down on a bed while in the movie he is sitting.
