There are many differences and similarities between the novel “Hatchet” and the movie “A cry in the wild.” In the movie and novel there are many similarities and differences between the plot, settings, and characters. Which both give a different and unique meaning.

First of all, some examples of similarities and differences in the novel “Hatchet” and the movie “A cry in the wild” are found in the plot. In the novel, the pilot doesn’t talk to Brian very much and in the movie he talks to Brian a lot more. Another example is the food he had, in the novel there were cherries,raspberries,turtle eggs, fish and foolbirds. In the movie, he had berries, raspberries,worms,fish,and foolbirds. Lastly, in the novel the bear appears more than once and was stalking Brian repeatedly. Some similarities in the plot was when he tried to make a fire and it worked, he also went back at the end of the novel and movie to get the first aid kit. Lastly, at the end of the novel and movie, he also asked the rescue pilot if we wanted some food.

Secondly, there are some differences in the setting, for instance when he tries to go the plane, in the novel he makes a raft and paddles and in the movie he rides a log. Another different is when Brian drops his hatchet in the water and in the movie the water was clean and in the novel it was dirty and muddy. Some similarities in the settings are that in the beginning when the plane crashes he ends up in a forest. Lastly, when he got saved by the rescue plane he went back home to his family.

Thirdly, the differences in the characters is when Brian’s mom fell in love with a blond man in the novel, but in the movie she was kissing a brunette man in front of a tree. Another difference is when the bear attacks him and the animals he saw in the novel was a bear, skunk, a porcupine, wolves and a moose, but in the movie he saw a raccoon, porcupine, bear,and wolves. Some similarities are when the bear attacked him. Another example is when the porcupine threw quills at him. Lastly, the secret has the same meaning to the story, and she dates this man and Brian keeps thinking about the divorce.

Therefore, there are many similarities and differences in the novel “Hatchet” and the movie “A cry in the wild” between the plot, characters, and settings that make each different and unique.
