So you didn't put any statements...but here's what it's about.

"The Gift of the Magi" is a short story, written by O. Henry, about a young married couple and how they deal with the challenge of buying secret Christmas gifts for each other with very little money

Yeah you didn't put any statements, but if I were to guess, I would think his purpose in writing it would be to show that money isn't what matters in life. What matters in life is family and love for your fellow man.

Answer:

The original story and the film version of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Adventure of the Speckled Band" share these two major themes: the danger of jumping to conclusions and the idea that crime doent pay . However, the two versions differ in certain ways. For example, in the original story, Helen Stoner gets engaged two years after her sister’s death, while in the film version, the engagement takes place one year later. The film version also establishes a more intimate connection between Watson and Helen as family friends.

Explanation:

"The Adventure of the Speckled Band" was written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and tells how Helen Stoner, after having her sister murdered asks Sherlock Holmes for help in solving the crime, finding the culprit and finding out if her stepfather was involved in the murder.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's work has won a cinamatographic version that has many similarities with the written work, but also has many differences so that the story fits better with the Holliwoodian standards.

In short, the original story and the film version of "The Adventure of the Splattered Band" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle share these two main themes: the danger of jumping to conclusions and the idea that crime does not pay. However, the two versions differ in certain ways. For example, in the original story, Helen Stoner is engaged two years after the death of her sister, while in the film version, the engagement occurs a year later. The film version also establishes a more intimate connection between Watson and Helen as friends of the family.
