Similarities Between Book And Movie Rudy

Decent Essays
Some people recognize similarities between them and characters from movies that they watch or from books that they read. I strongly think that I share many similarities with the character Rudy from the movie Rudy, and I think we are alike in many ways. To begin with, in the movie, Rudy never gave up once and always gave one hundred percent of his effort when he played on the field. Also, like me, Rudy loved sports and was always focused on getting better, and it was easy to tell because of his devotion to sports. Finally, Rudy was always the hardest working and most determined person on the field. As can be seen, I think Rudy and I are similar in lots of ways and we both have the same respect for sports. First of all, one of the ways

    Did you know that in the movie the Outsiders when Ralph Macchio (Johnny) auditioned to play the part of Johnny he rubbed dirt on his face just so he could get the part of Johnny. In the days since the book and the movie are still blowing minds. I thought the book didn’t explain each scene far enough into detail.

While the book and movie have many similarities and differences, the movie was more effective in telling the story.…
