BOOK VS FILM

First of all the setting in the movie was much different then that of the play. In the movie in general all the differences that there is, is basically making the film more modern then the book. One of the first and most seen differences I think is that in the movie they use pistols and in the book they use swords. Another obvious differences is the transport, in the book they walk to get arround and the film they use cars.Secondly, there were many main characters that were drastically changed and some minor characters that weren't mentioned at all. The last difference that I spotted was that in the movie the plot was situatted in a huge city and in the book it was in a town.
