<span>Movies and books have similarities and differences; but it seems that the differences outweigh the similarities. Both can be used to express fiction; entertain; and be enjoyed by young and old alike. However, books and movies differ in the use of imagination; duration or length of time; audience; and interpretation.</span>

Fiction can be told through books and movies. In fact, a number of movies are adaptations of the novel or book form. <u>Maze Runners</u> and <u>Harry Potter</u> are examples of books turned into movies. Secondly, both are forms of entertainment. Reading fiction or watching a movie entertain us and make us relax. Finally, both can be enjoyed by the young and the old. There is no age limit to being able to get access to books and movies especially now that we have the Internet.

On the other hand, in matters of the use of imagination, the printed form can be limitless. Since movies are visually presented, the audience becomes a passive spectator of the series of events and characters presented to him. Secondly, books take time to finish depending on the age and reading speed of the readers. In contrast, movies can be done in an hour or two. There are even Indie (independent) films that are less than an hour in length. Thirdly, books can only be enjoyed by a single person; while movies can be shared with friends and loved ones at home or in the cinemas which can be more fun. Finally, in matters of interpretation, the printed form can have more details that the interpretation could be different depending on the reader’s age, experience and culture. However, movies are often interpreted by the director or producers and have to suit certain conditions such as budget, target audience, and censorship.

Overall, despite the differences, books and movies have undeniably been great companions of human experience, where a person can escape into some place and time that he can control. Whether the story has a tragic or happy ending, it is still worth our time and experience.

Personally, I prefer good movies spent on Friday nights with my friends. Nothing can beat the relaxing time spent sharing popcorn and soda.

Ad libitum [116K]
A simile is used to compare her voice to a "cool, dark room in summer- peaceful, soothing, quiet". This helps let readers know that she is most likely very nurturing, caring, and a definite "motherly figure"
