My Book to Movie Comparison

The Outsiders
  The Outsiders novel and movie are both very interesting versions of the story. These two versions have many differences. One of these differences is that near the
beginning of the book Dally has smacked Ponyboy really hard, in the movie Dally pushed Ponyboy to a table. Another difference is that in the book when Darry died Pony fell on the floor and got sick, in the movie they didn’t show that part or Ponyboy never got sick in the movie. The next difference is that when Johnny, Darry, and Ponyboy were in the hospital and Soda and Dally came, in the book Pony gave Soda a hug and hesitated to give Dally one, in the movie Pony gave Dally and Soda a hug without hesitation. The final reason that they are different is because when Johnny died and Dally ran off, in the book Dally stole from a store, in the movie Dally broke a book and pulled a gun on the cashier. This is why the book and the movie are different.

 There are also many similarities between the movie and book. One similarity that both versions have is when Dally started to annoy Cherry and Johnny tells Dally to stop. Another similarity that they both have is when Johnny tells Dally he will turn himself into the police when he returns. The next next similarity was when Johnny and Ponyboy were in the church and Pony started saying the poem Nothing Gold Can Stay. This is why the novel and the movie are similar.

 The actors did a good job giving the message from the book in the movie. In some of the scenes they had bad acting but overall they did an okay job with giving us the message on some of the very important scenes. Another reason they did a good job was when certain characters died they showed the person's emotions and their actions. The next reason they did a good job was when an important scene was going on, the actors did a good job showing the characters feelings and how they were in the book. This is why the actors did a good job giving us the message of the book.
