There are usually differences in two different versions of something. This can often be seen when a book is made into a movie. There are many similarities and differences in the book and movie versions of To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee.

It is an unimaginable thought that something so similar can be missing so much. They can be both so unique and incomparable. In the book To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee the main character, Scout and her brother Jem fight prejudice through a young person perspective. The main characters go on a journey against Bob Ewell throughout the sleepy town of Maycomb, at the 1930’s. Bob Ewell has falsely accused Tom Robinson of a crime. On the process the characters grow a lot and find things that spark their curiosity. This makes an interesting plot with many turns. The movie, To Kill a Mockingbird, has many differences from its book, many plots and characters are missing which greatly impacts the movie directed by Robert Mulligan.

The movie, To Kill a Mockingbird, was the film adaptation of Harper Lee’s award-winning novel, To Kill a Mockingbird. The movie was two hours and ten minutes long, which took up three entire English classes including a discussion. It was extremely long time period to give up, so why did Doc choose to watch the movie?

There are many differences between the book; To Kill a Mockingbird and the movie. Some differences are easy to spot and some aren’t. Many things that are in the book aren’t in the movie. Many of these things you don’t need, but are crucial to the plot of the book. Movies and books have differences and similarities, but many things in books MUST be included in the movie.

"It's a sin to kill a mockingbird," explains Atticus Finch to his children (To Kill Dir. Robert Mulligan). Neither the novel nor film version of To Kill A Mockingbird is better than one another, just different. "It's no secret that adapting a novel to film can be a perilous affair. A movie, even when it's good, doesn't often convey the feeling of the book it's based on. But in this case screenwriter Horton Foote treated the Harper Lee novel - about a Depression-era Alabama lawyer and his two children - with love and respect, and the director successfully evoked the

There are other significant similarities between the movie and the book, so if I overlooked or forgot any extremely crucial points, forgive me.

The novel To Kill a Mockingbird written by Harper Lee and film 12 Angry Men directed by Sidney Lumet, both touch on similar themes of justice and prejudice. When contrasting the two texts it is evident that there are many foils which display their own strong personal characteristics yet keep those themes at the core of their character. Generally, influence is a result of conformity, when people begin to make change in their actions and heart, others follow suit to feel included. This is the case in the texts, individuals manage to convince groups of people by creating a norm to be followed. It is more so a case of influencing individuals who in turn convince others. This is because people like to feel included, and not as though they are outcasts.

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

Neither the novel nor film version of To Kill A Mockingbird is superior to the other, just different. In the book you delve more into the separate characters while in the film you see the relationships in action. The book gives you a broader view of everything, but at the same time the movie points out everything that seems important. Lastly, the novel shows Scout as a girl caught in the middle, when the movie seems to paint Scout as a girl without a inkling of what is going on.

To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee is a beloved novel published in 1960. After reading the novel there were some moments and people that I found particularly enjoyable. My favorite part of the novel was when the children went to Boo Radley's house to try to get a look at him. In addition, Atticus Finch was my favorite character in the novel. In my opinion the book was very good. I felt that it really showed the thoughts and actions, both good and bad, of the people in the South during the time of the Great Depression. At some points it was sad and at others it was comical but overall it conveyed the message that it was trying to send and everyone could learn something from it.

In the movie, as well as the book, there are multiple times where the rhetorical strategy logos is used. An example of one of them is when Atticus says, “The state has not produced one iota of medical evidence to the effect that the crime Tom Robinson is charged with ever took place.” I know it is logos because it is a fact that the state hasn’t given any medical evidence to prove that Tom is guilty of the crime he is being charged for. Atticus is using this fact to try to persuade some people with logic that it wasn’t Tom who did anything to Mayella. I think that this part was better in the movie because the actor who played as Atticus made it more dramatic which made the whole situation more effective and serious.

1. To a large extent, the movie and the book share similarities in terms of ideas and the general aspects. Similar in both the movie and the book is the perspective through which the events are depicted. The book, as well as the film, depict the events as told by the main character of the story. The main similarity between the film and the book consists actually in the the main themes delivered by the art works.

During the 20th century, many people were given privileges and treated with more respect, due to prejudice and bias against a particular ethnicity, race, and gender. To Kill a Mockingbird and a Raisin in the Sun were two very prominent meaningful works that reflected upon the years of racism and discrimination in the 1900s. By putting the audience and readers in perspective of African- Americans, Lorraine Hansberry and Harper Lee showcase the obstacles and challenges Africans-Americans had to face when in pursuit of a goal or ideal. They showcased the constant critical ``marginalization`` of African-Americans, and what impact the racial stereotypes had on an African-American and their dreams and aspirations. Characters are continuously challenged

Every character in every book has been always somewhat different from one another. We all know that some or most twins have several things in common, including their faces, personalities, actions, however, these twins from this story are very different. By the way, Josh Bell has a different nickname than Jordan Bell. In this story, it shows various reasons why Josh and Jordan are somewhat the same yet different in an interesting way.

The first similarity is Manderley house, at the beginning of the story and the film, the narrator describes Manderley it is a secret and silent house also she images of a big house when anybody thought they have lost it and she talks about the details such as the stony surface cover with grass and weeds. I see this accurate description in the movie. The second similarity is Mrs. de Winter reactions. There are several situations happen whether joy, sadness or debate Mrs. de Winter’s reaction is similar to film and novel such as when she meets Maxim she feels so happy together. Moreover, she lacks confidence and she is insecure if Maxim loves Rebecca more than her. The last similarity is the personality of housekeeper Mrs. Danvers, there is a great similarity between Mrs. Danvers characters in the novel and the film. She is the head housekeeper and Mrs. Danvers is Rebecca’s maid. She hates the new wife also she does not want Maxim to marry any woman after Rebecca so she is like a devil she makes her do something her husband does not like such as when she convinces her to wear the same dress that Rebecca has already worn it before
