There are so many kind of movies based on the books. Oftentimes, the books that were filmed are usually far from the readers’ imagination. One of the reasons why this happened is because not all of the story in the books will be visualized in the movies in case that it will make the movies longer. This essay will explain you why books are much better than movies.
The first thing, books give the depth of what the
author wants to say. A book can be a great medium for depicting life morals in
great detail. They can explain emotions, displayed out word for word, so that
the reader not only experiences the emotion but understands what they are
feeling. Moreover, by this description, a book can delve deeply into the story
itself. While a movie merely portrays events visually and audibly, a book gives
reasons, motives, emotions deep inside a character, beyond what can be seen and
heard, so that the audience will not only discover what happened and how, but why.
In addition to give the depth, books also make us to
be the characters. While watching a movie you do not imagine what the character
looks like or sounds like, but with a book you are the characters. You live in
their eyes. With books, you will visualize your wide imagination of your own.
It means that books will touch the readers appropriately. Besides, in movies,
because there are so many scenes are not completely visualized, you will feel
that there is something missing.
