You are to select a scene that you really liked in the novel and compare it to the movie we watched in class. If your favorite scene was not in the movie thern you must select another that is included in both the novel and the movie. You will begin to list the similarities and the differences. Write a paragraph or two using details to include the items you listed showing their likeness and differences. Tell me why you liked this particular part of the novel/movie so much. Pick another scene that you didn't like in the novel/movie and tell me why you didn't using details from their similarities and differences.

A scene in the movie that I liked was at the Ribbon. I thought it was a really cool thing to have a strip of road that had a lot of restaurants and many other things. I see why they went to the Ribbon a lot.

I could see a lot of similarities and differences in the Ribbon scene. One similarity would be when Mark punched a guy for saying something to Cathy. You could tell that in the book and in the movie, Cathy didn't like that. Another similarity would be when Cathy cried over M&M running away to the Hippie House. One difference in a scene that went along with this one, was when M&M went to the hospital. In the book, Mr. Carlson carried M&M in. In the movie, he didn't carry him in.

A scene that I didn't like was when Charlie got shot. I didn't feel that it what he died over was worth it. He may have saved Bryon and Mark from getting beat up, but Bryon said that Charlie would never think of doing that.

I could see a few alike and differences in this part of the movie. One thing that was different would be when Mark was going to get punched. The Texan had brass knuckles on in the book.

These were a few of my likes and dislikes in the movie. These are also a few comparisons of the movie to the book.

Favorite - 97 and least - 95. CP
