The difference between a novel and a movie.

The novels and films of Pride and Prejudice are mainly different in content and artistic attributes, as follows:

1, content difference:

In the novel Pride and Prejudice, a * * describes four stories: the love struggle between the hero Darcy and the heroine Elizabeth, the power struggle between Charlotte and Collins, the love at first sight between Jane and Bentley, and the love between Lydia and Wickham.

In the film Pride and Prejudice, Mr. and Mrs. Bentley did not appear. The focus of the film is only the emotional development of Darcy and Elizabeth.

2. Differences in artistic attributes and characteristics:

As an indirect artistic expression, novels are not as stimulating to readers as movies. The narrative of the text needs to be combined with the reader's own life experience. Only in this way can we leave more imagination space for readers. The ultimate goal of creating characters in novels is the relative freedom of novel creation, and the novelist's creation of each scene is not subject to any external interference.

For film works, the external modeling and acting skills of actors are very demanding. The background of the film should be consistent with the theme to be expressed. For example, when Collins proposed to Elizabeth, the location in the movie was in a restaurant, a messy place, and Collins also took a bunch of flowers to propose.

This reflects the informality and absurdity of this proposal to some extent. Movies present the characters to the audience more vividly, which can better keep the audience's attention. Therefore, under certain conditions, the audience's love for the actors and their understanding of the corresponding scene arrangements will affect the effect of the whole film and television work.
