I would be wonderful to live in a society where there are no rules or regulation. A society where people do whatever they want despite what everyone else thinks, but is a society free from rules and regulation a working society. We often take living in a civilized society for granted. It is very hard to imagine our society free from all rules, morals, and regulations. These rules, morals, and regulations keep our society running and intact. The novel Lord of the Flies by William Golding is an excellent example of the type of society we would not want to be part off.

Lord of the Flies is about young boys from a boarding school that get stranded on a deserted island. Since they are just thrown into this situation, they are forced to become their own society and rule themselves. Their efforts to construc

The producer, Peter Brook, only filmed sixty hours of the movie. According to the Apollo Guide Review,'"'the filmmakers had 60 hours of film to edit'"', but it was then edited into ninety minute film. The movie was filmed in the island of Puerto Rico. Millions of kids applied for the roles. The Apollo Guide Review also states that, '"'the little boys were almost all non-actors whose parents volunteered them for the job out of respect for the book'"'. Despite its flaws, the movie had incredible reviews and very good ratings. It was a brilliant movie carefully interpreted. The actors were very convincing and played there role very well. Piggy"'"s character was the most exceptional.

The movie Lord of the Flies was definitely a wonderful movie. The movie contains minor addition and subtractions. When I saw it for the first time I was shocked that a great book was made from a good movie. The producers view covered all aspects of interpretation. I greatly recommend this movie to individuals who love the book. Despite the fact that there are other new versions of Lord of the Flies the black and white version definitely mimics the book greatly.

Two diverges in the scene that the book contains is when Simon sees the Lord of the Flies and when Simon discovers that there is no such thing as the monster.

In contrast to the novel, the movie does not emphasize the importance of the conch as a symbol of authority. In many occasions in the movie there were never any specific moments that were set out to explain what the meaning of it was. Brook just made it seem like an ordinary shell that the boys found and used to call meetings and delegate power to. One particular scene was when Ralph went up to confront Jack and he gave the conch to Piggy to hold. Piggy is then struck with a rock and falls to his death. When this occurs it shows Piggy dying as well as the conch and the power that went along with it. From this point on there was no other item that they used to regain that order that they once had.

Furthermore, the screenwriter, Peter Brook concentrates more on the savage behavior of the boys. He concentrates on their transformation from civilized individuals to animal like creatures. The transformation of the boys is mildly gradual.

In the text he points out objects such as the conch shell, Piggy"'"s glasses, the beast, and the fire. Each specific object can be tied back into the society that they boys have made and then eventually broke down. The conch shell is something that Ralph and Piggy found and decided to use to control the meetings that they hold on the island. It becomes a symbol for authority and power over the other boys. In turn whoever held it at these specific meetings or at any other time for that matter, held the power. Ralph became the main one that held the conch because he saw it as a way to keep order and he thought that it would be the perfect item. Just as it held all this great power, the meaning that it once held quickly faded as the boys grew farther and farther apart.
