Adaptation Expansion

comment
Adaptation Expansion: In the book, Cathy is far more central, with Chris and Carrie in supporting roles. This makes sense given the framing device of this being Cathy's memoir. In the movie that framing device is cut, and the Dollanganger siblings are on much more equal footing. This is accomplished by having Cathy's plotlines trimmed down, Carrie's left largely the same, and Chris's plumped up.

Adapted Out: The opening scenes of the movie are of Paul's funeral, thus eliminating not only the rest of the children's growing up years, but him from the story.

comment
Adaptation Distillation: The book is a sprawling soap opera spread over 15 years. The movie, understandably, cuts that down. Adapted Out: The opening scenes of the movie are of Paul's funeral, thus eliminating not only the rest of the children's growing up years, but him from the story. Time Skip: Unlike the book, the movie picks up 10 years after the conclusion of its predecessor.
