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 from the movie/novel and tell me why you didn't using detailfrom their similarities and differences.

One scene from the novel that I really enjoyed was when Cathy and Bryon had found M&M in the "Hippie house" tripping on acid. Some parts of the novel were changed during the making of the movie such as the building M&M was in, who had given him the drug, and who all was in the "Hippie house". One other part of the movie was taken out completely, which was when M&M's father had carried M&M into the hosptial. The reason this part is my favorite in the novel is since M&M had been driven to this by his father. His father had not been a father to M&M. Instead he discouraged him all the time. M&M was tired of being made fun of all the time and wanted to go out and be somewhere where he could be himself without being discouraged. He had hurt not only himself but his family too. He had not thought about the consiquences and he had no regard for anyone but himself. That is why this is my favorite part in the novel.

One scene from the novel that I didnt like was when Bryon called the cops on Mark. Bryon and Mark could have worked this out by theirselves and Bryon only did it for Cathy. Since Cathy was mad at him he was too. Mark had only done it to make some extra money for the house. He needed to pitch in and help out. Mark was not taking the drugs, and he was right when he said that they would get it anywhere, why not from him. It is illegal, and shouldn't be done but if people are in need of money they have to do whatever they can to provide for their families and theirselves. The cops shouldn't be called unless the situation can't be handled. Bryon had no business doing what he did to Mark. Some things that changed in the movie was Bryon called the cops when he found the pills, the cops go Mark when he was at his house, Mark stole the car that him and Bryon had to share, and Mark had hit Bryon. I hate betrayal. That is why this is my least favorite part in the novel and movie.

Very good responses to both. You used alot of detail to make the contrasts and comparisons. You gave personal reasons as to why these were your favorite and least scenes. Keep up the good work! Favorite - 98 and least 98. CP
