“The Outsiders” movie and book are amazing and interesting. After watching both, they appeared to be alike in many ways. When we finished “The Outsiders”, it was obvious that they were different. The movie and the book have similarities. Ponyboy is the narrator in the book and the movie. He is the youngest member of the Greasers. There are two gangs made up of different types of people. The Socs are the rich kids and dress in nice clothes, and the Greasers don’t have a lot of money and wear their long hair slicked back with hair oil. Even though the movie and book are similar, they are also different. One of the differences between the book and the movie is where the two gangs live. In the book the Socs are from the west side of town and
The Outsiders was a great book, and the movie was a great way to wrap everything up. There were some similarities, but a lot more differences. When I watched the movie, I could see how the characters in the movie didn't exactly match how they were portrayed in the book. My imagination was on a different track than what I saw in the movie. In my next paragraph I will explain the character differences in the book and the movie.
Which is better: book or movie? The age-old debate. But which is better? S.E Hinton's, 'The Outsiders' book is far superior to Francis F. Coppola's motion-picture film portrayal of the book in 1983. You might remember it from the popular quote, "Stay Gold". Today it is mostly read in middle school classrooms. The Outsiders was published by S.E Hinton in 1967 when she was a teenager. The main focus throughout the story is the feud between two gangs: The Socials (Socs) and the Greasers. "We're poorer than the Socs and the middle class. I reckon we're wilder too". The whole book is written in Ponyboy Curtis's point of view. So, we are hearing the story through a Greaser's perspective. It is often difficult to make a connection with a character over the big screen. You miss out on scenes that did not make it into the movie, some that were are not emphasized like they should have been, and some characters were portrayed wrongly.
The characters in the book The Outsiders, are one of the most important part of the story. Each character has his own different thoughts and actions. They all stick together and have each other’s backs. Most books that kids liked to read that were fiction mostly dealt with the popular clicks and groups. But Hinton’s novels related to the outcasts of society (Harris).
The story The Outsiders By S.E Hinton is said to be “timeless” because kids can relate to the characters and themes of the story. In my opinion the story The Outsiders is not timeless because kids these days can’t relate to the characters in the story The Outsiders. Kids today aren’t riding in rodeos, roll drunks, jump smaller kids, walk to a stranger's house, or get in a stranger’s car, also they get arrested at the age of 10. Saying the statement “The Outsiders is a “timeless” book “ is an invalid statement. So, Kids today often don’t relate to The Outsiders anymore in many ways.
The Outsiders by S.E. Hilton details many different characters, all of which have a different and unique personality. The Outsiders is about gang verse gang, greasers verse Socs, a war between social classes. Everyone in the greasers are different and are good at their own things. Although their personality slightly changes throughout the book who they are never changes. Ponyboy, Sodapop and Dally have very different personalities each of which show their character in a different way.
The Outsiders” takes you through a journey of struggle, violence, and death. It examines the life of a recently orphaned young man born into poverty confronted with the prejudices that he could not change. He struggles with the many conflicts between the lower class and the upper class youths.
Is it better to be an individual or conform to expectations just to fit in like others? This choice is faced by Ponyboy Curtis, the narrator, throughout S.E. Hinton’s The Outsiders. He belongs to the Greasers, a group of delinquent friends, who are viewed by many as poor and dangerous, while the rival Socs are viewed as rich, smart, and powerful causing the Greasers to envy them. Ponyboy learns from Randy Adderson, a Soc who is trapped by stereotype threat, that their lives are not as perfect as he expected it to be and they too face problems. In addition, Ponyboy tries to act tough and fit in with the rest of gang, but his Greaser companions, such as Two-Bit Matthews, teach him to embrace his own characteristics which sets him apart from
Francis Ford Coppola's film "The Outsiders" is a 1980's melodrama, based on teenage behavior in the 1950's. The film is about two groups of teenagers who attend the same high school and live in the same town, but lead radically different lives. One group, known as The South-Side Socials (more casually called "socs"), is the more privileged group. The second group, The Greasers, are the less privileged kids, who just so happen to live on the wrong side of town. These two groups have had rivalry against each other for many years, but on one particular night, this rivalry turns deadly as one of the greasers, Johnny, stabs and kills a soc, Bob, in defense of his friend, Pony boy Curtis. The rivalry becomes more severe on both sides after the murder; the socs' trying to avenge the death of their friend; the greasers trying to get the town to understand that the socs' are at fault also. Coppola's film is a vivid depiction of how social groups can define our behavior, and how deviance and crime are viewed in relation to our social group.
There are many similarities between the book and the movie The Outsiders. Here are a few of them. First of all, all of the main characters are the same in the beginning and change throughout the book and movie. The characters personality and mindset change throughout both. Another thing is that the Socs and the Greasers are still rivals and fight. They still have the rumble and get jumped a lot. In addition,
The movie and the book of ¨The Outsiders¨ are different because the movie shows she sceans that the book never mentioned, in other words the movie was a lot more detailed. It is also different when Ponyboy and the older boys hugged at the hospital. There was a couple differences in between both the movie and the book. I think the movie added and changed some things. The movie sort of started out differently than the book.
In the outsiders there is a novel and a movie and in my opinion the novel is better. Both are somewhat similar. even though the book and a novel are similar they both have differences .
