The outsiders book & movie comparison

The Outsiders the movie and the novel have similarities. Both the novel and the movie are similar by when Ponyboy came home late for sleeping in the lot and Ponyboy getting hit by Darry for coming home late which made Ponyboy ran off with Jonny. Which was a big part in the book and the movie because that's what created the conflict of Jonny killing Bob later on in the movie and the book. Leading towards after Jonny killed Bob they went to Dally and Dally send them to the church which made Ponyboy and Jonny stay there for a couple of days and changed how they looked.

  Not only that they were some differences that they had in the book and not in the movie. For example in the book when the greasers and the socs were ready for the rumble. Darry was telling the socs that who wants to fight him and the no one stood up to him, until a few seconds later Paul Holden stepped up to fight him,  but in the movie Paul Holden was the first guy in front of the group of the socs and Darry started to talk to Paul right away. Forward on in the book when they were in the rumble Paul Holden hit Darry first and that's what started the rumble. On the other hand in the movie Ponyboy got punched in the face first and that's how the rumble started in the movie.

  The actors and the directors did an amazing job. They acted like the actors how were described in the book. It really showed how it was back in the days and how they dressed up and how they acted. Another thing would be how they showed how they divide between the greasers and the Socs/ rich kids. It really did show amazing work on it was in past was and how it is different from now.

  1. Yes! I know right! We dress really different than in the 1960's. We do have some similarities from the greasers and socs, like how some people are homeless to people who are in the middle class, to people who are really rich. So, I can see how your blog post can show your points of view which is really good!
