LOTF Compare and Contrast

The movie Lord of the Flies by Harry Hook to the book Lord of the Flies by William Golding were really different. In the movie, the captain was with them on the island, the choir kids in the movie book are British while in the movie they are all Americans , and Simon never talked with the pigs head.

In the movie, Lord of the Flies, by Harry Hook, the littlun with the birthmark on his face never died while in the book Lord of the Flies by William Golding he did. In the book William did it to show the kids irresponsibility and how they didn't know anything about living by themselves; while in the movie the littlun never died and we could not see how their irresponsibility lead to chaos which lead to murder.

In the book, the choir boys are British which automatically gives them a sense of purity and a connection with religion, and as the story goes along they start committing sins, like hurting other, bullying, and even killing; in addition in the book the fact that the kids were part of a choir (church), makes it even more shocking since they are the first ones to become savages. In the movie the kids are all Americans which gives the audience a hint that they are all already connected to more of the adult world, like wars and violence. The change from the kids into being savages is more shocking with the choir than regular American boys.

The pig is a symbol of evil and consequences of their savage in both the movie and the book; but in the book Simon talks to the pig making it clear for the readers that the pig represents the devil and the beast, since the pig says Simon should be afraid to him. While in the movie Simon never actually talked to the pigs head only saw it, which makes it harder to the audience understand the pig's head real meaning other than just a gift to the beast.

In conclusion to all of this essay, I would say that the movie is missing many of the important scenes that the book has, and as almost all cases the book is always going to be better than the movie because of the fact that the book includes details that the movie won't show and how the book can be more dramatic and sentimental than movies. I would recommend the book better than the movie because most of the reasons said before.

Jack has the power
Ralph i just another kid
the island is lost
between savageness and
the lost hope of sad kids.

You Can't Have It All

But you can have the yellow sunset
on a Sunday morning shining
trough your window as warm as a Goodnight kiss.
You can have the lick of a small Yorkshire
at 5 a.m. to let you know the day has started.
You can have the barks of a dog at night and the
bite of upset hamster that thinks he
should get a bigger cage, and when school starts,
you can have friends to laugh with 24/7, remember
you are never alone.
You can have love, but it might not
always be easy to understand like do
fishes drink water?
You can have a warm, soft
shoulder to lean on when the world
seems to crash down.
You can learn different languages, it
might be compelicated
but nothing in life is easy.
You can wish something didn't happen,
but never regret anything on life.
You can't live in the past, but remember
because memories are vivid dreams
of what you wish would have happened. And you
can be grateful to the people, who
no matter what have always been there
for you, the way they tell you what you want to
hear, how their hugs are infinite, how you
love them and they love you no
matter what. You can have a fantasy,
the fantasy of ruling the world, everyone kneeling
to your feet and nobody hating you.
You can have secret admirers, love letters,
kisses, and the endless chocolates
on holidays. You cant count the
grains of sand on a beach, but
you will always have a friend there
to try it with you.
You can dream.
You can love.
You can hate.
You can kiss.
but never give up, life gives you up and
downs, but life is a God gift to you.
To enjoy it and live it the way you wish it.

South Beach - Benjamin Moore - 2043-50

She walked
a long the beach
Louie Vitton bag
and Big Couch sunglasses.

It was a Saturday
the day she would never forget.
Her perfect body,
her amazing eyes,
her impressive green bathing suit,
she was a Goddess.

The night fell upon her
and she fell upon,
tall, tanned, tough guys
surrounded her like a small
sinless, sweet, cub lost between trees.

Her innocence made her blind.
Clothes thrown,
Messy hair,
Alcohol on her breath,
promises made,
in the heat
of the moment.

One night
it was all it took,
four green walls around her,
her feet touching the
cold white floor,
sitting on a toilet with
the water running,
"my parent will think im showering"
thats how easy it
was for her.
Two lines on a small screen.
Her life had
just began.

Hiding the pregnancy test
was a maze.
Nights crying,
regret all over her,
never knowing about that once
flawless guy
destroyed a perfect girls life,
all on a Saturday night.
