The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas: Personal Response to the Film and Novel

The Boy in the stripy Pyjamas is a 2006 invigorated by Irish unfermentedist John Boyne this is his poop novel, and the first he has written for children. My classmates and I have read the hold up and watched the trailer of its newly releasing movie. And I have to say, this novel is unfeignedly remarkable. The novel truly engages the reader completely into the arrest and its tight to put down. Believe me.......the trailer is all the more brilliant, with a spunky standard quality and exceptionally mind capturing images. The Boy in the striped Pyjamas is told through the eyes of an eight year old male child screen from the reality of World War II. Bruno is growing up in Berlin, save moves to Auschwitz during World War II, sets out to explore the place around him. The novel also involves the horrific part of history the holocaust.Bruno is irritated and shocked when hes told theyre moving from Berlin but being a truly naive boy doesnt understand why their family has to leav e. The story follows on as Bruno sets out from his house in Auschwitz to explore and finds a boy the same age as him sitting on the ground, on the other(a) side of a fence. His name is Shmuel, a Jewish boy held intent in a concentration camp, but Bruno believes the camp is good a farm. Their friendship cements but is separated by a barbed wire. Brunos male parent is a Nazi commandant, but Bruno never seems to understand what his fathers job is. For Bruno hes just a winning father, but the truth isnt hidden for long, as we soon reach Brunos father is the most merciless and cruel man thither could ever be. A lot of consideration was put into this novels appropriateness for children it was legal opinion parents force have to explain the Holocaust however it was decide... ...ferences between book and film are that in a book everything is in more detail and youre informed of every little change occurrent constantly whereas in a movie you do get a bigger and clearer view of the situation but virtuallytimes you might just miss out a few important bits that are told in detail in a book. The movie looks really realistic. The problem of victimisation children in films is that children can be so naive they might not be able to handle the scenes and deliver their speech very efficiently, some parts of the film might bushel them by frightening them and they might not be able to give their best in that scene, this could affect the quality of the movie. The terrible outcome that Bruno faces could have an emotional effect on the younger audience. I would recommend teenagers to watch this movie and read the novel because it is very educational and emotional.
