====﻿﻿My favorite scene from the movie "That Was Then, This Is Now" was the scene where Bryon kicks Mark out of the house for selling drugs to M&M. There are quite a few differences from the novel to the movie. In the novel, Mark wasn't kicked out. He was just told that Bryon called the police and that they were on their way. Mark never took the car and ran in the novel. He seemed to just stay calm at home and waited for them to get there. Also, in the novel Bryon wasn't necassarily looking for pills. He was looking for cigarrettes, but in the scene he knew what he was looking for. Another difference was the bag of pills in the movie, compared to the cylinder in the novel. In the novel, Mark wasn't even the one who gave M&M the pills. In the scene from the movie though, it was M&M's "travel agent" who gave it to him. ==== ====Some similarities from the novel to the scene from the movie are that the cops showed up in both. Another is, that Bryon didn't feel bad after kicking him out in the scene and after calling the cops in the novel, but that was only at first. I liked this part of the scene/novel, because it was very dramatic and had alot of action to it. ==== ====One scene I didn't like from the movie was when Bryon goes to see Mark in jail. Some similarities from the movie scene to the novel are that Mark remains mad at Bryon in both. Also, in the novel and the scene from the movie Bryon asks Mark to come back home after he gets out. Some differences are that in the novel Mark knew how long he would be in jail, compared to in the movie he didn't. Another is that after Bryon leaves the jail in the movie, he took someone's car and took it for a drive, and he never did that in the novel. I didn't like this part of the novel/movie, because it was kind of sad. ====
