Paragraphs Analyzing
Book vs. Movie

HW: Enjoy your weekend!

        Hey guys, it's Seltz. I really don't want to do the blog today. I'm sick, I just had running day, and I'm so very tired. Thanks Eli and Matthieu. You will rue this day. Right now we are analyzing The Outsiders, book vs. movie. I really should be writing this down, be right back. I can't see anything on the projector from this angle.

       Okay I give up. Alrighty, so I do believe that The Outsiders movie stays faithful to the book. The characterization is the same, because Pony, Johnny, Darry, Soda, Steve, Two-Bit, Dally, and Cherry had the same qualities that are described in the novel. They look and talk exactly as I imagined they would. Also, there is a strong Socs vs. Greasers conflict. You can feel the tension between the groups, and the incident in the park did occur in the movie, just like it did in the novel. How can you forget the rumble towards the end? There was a fire, rain, blood, people screaming; just my typical Sunday afternoon. (That is something called sarcasm for all of you who don't understand). Lastly, I think that the setting in the movie stays true to the setting in the book. I'm pretty sure S.E. Hinton meant for the story to be set somewhere in Oklahoma even though she never mentions it. She is from there, and the scenery in the movie looks like the western prairie.

      Oh my gosh, I just got my reading journal back. Heck yes, 20/20. Well, I really want to get back to my work. I feel bad not doing it, so this will just be a short blog. I'm also not gonna do a picture 'cause that's just not my thing. Bye guys.

P.S. MATTHEIU AND ELI, SEE ME AFTER CLASS!!! On second hand, don't. Just don't talk to me.
