Movie v. Book (Scarlet Letter)

Both the movie and the book versions of the famous American piece of literature, The Scarlet Letter, by Nathaniel Hawthorne, held true to the common characteristics of a typical romance. Romance as it may seem, would usually involve love, but that is a common misconception. A true romance is a story that portrays a fantasy that has nature and many weird and exotic aspects. The movie variation of The Scarlet Letter, is very similar to the book, it was surprising because most books to movies get changed to some degree. Although the movie and the book were so close it did have some differences.

The characterization in the movie was very well done. It portrayed the each character exactly like there description in the book. Hester was well played, she had the look of mystery to her, and she seemed secluded and isolated by society. This is just by looking at her. The most captivating part was her eyes, which seemed to have an eerie glow that gave her a supernatural look like she was a not even human. Chillingsworth's char


Sound was one of the most important aspects of the whole movie; I feel that is what pulled me in. In the beginning of the movie, the pounding musical score, although it wasn't the greatest had a lasting effect on me. Also in the opening seen when Hester walks to the scaffold with Pearl she is silent, you almost yearn to hear her speak because her appearance is so as to find out more about her. I like to reiterate that Pearl's voice was very well done. She seemed like a happy playful little girl. Her voice was very jovial yet it had a something in it that makes you look twice at her character. There was also a lot of very good ambient sound that you really don't pay attention to but it helps bring out the mood of a scene, like the second scaffold seen with the reverend. You can hear the faintest chirp of a cricket or the "woo" of a perched owl. This give a scene have a little more depth.

Pace it something that is quite hard to comment on because when you read a book or at least when I read a book, I feel the reader

Some common words found in the essay are:
Reverend Dimmesdale, Notre Dame, Scarlet Letter, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Crucible Pace, , movie book, aspects movie, read book, pearl's voice, book movie, scaffold seen, scarlet letter,
