Differences between the book and the film

  • The most distinct difference between the film and the book is that the film established names for the characters, which the book did not.
  • The white people in the book are more truculent, cruel and racist than those in the film.
  • Both Sounder and his master’s father are more horribly injured in the book than in the movie.
