People mostly find movies more effective than books and I suppose that is because movies can show more details and more background information on the characters. After reading the book Educating Rita and seeing the movie, even though they were both incredibly amazing and unique each in their own ways, I preferred the movie to the book and I found it more effective. Movie gave me a better sense of the mood and atmosphere using music, and it was more clear and easier to understand with more background information on the characters by having additional scenes in the movie. The movie also made it more clearly on how the story ended by adding an additional scene to it.

While watching the movie I was able to capture the mood and the feeling of the characters and the atmosphere by the music being played. In the beginning of the movie when Rita is going to university for the first time, I could sense the formal atmosphere of the university and how it was differ

Lastly there was an additional scene in the end of the movie, which made a significant difference on how the story ended comparing to the play. In the book the play ended with the scene where Rita and Frank talk about Rita’s options for where she will be spending her summer and those are going aboard to France with Tyson and his friends, going to her mother, having a baby and going to Australia with Frank. And then she cuts Franks hair and that’s how the play ends but in the movie there is one more scene after that showing Frank and Rita saying goodbye in airport where Frank will be going to Australia. This scene shows that Rita did not go to Australia with Frank and nothing romantic happened between them. This helped me eliminate Rita’s options and see that Rita was now smart enough and independent enough to make decisions and make the best choice from the options she had.
