Film CriticExtremely Loud and Incredibly CloseJust wish intumesce most well received novels Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close has its own film adaptation by Stephen Daldry. It is just as impressive as the book itself, keeping the main billline which is the best a film adaptation should do but in the other hand it has some changes that argon very hard to go unnoticed.The cast is probably the main reason for the great result of the film. For the main roles Daldry went for award-winning actors such as Sandra Bullock, Tom Hanks and soap von Sydow who couldnt have done a greater job at playing their characters. Sandra as Linda Schell played very well the distance Oskar feels she has to him, as well as the difficulty we can see in the book that shes going through. Also Tom Hanks, who perfectly fit the image of an intelligent piece who chose his family and family business over a more appropriate education for his level. However the big star is of course Thomas Horn who played the par t of Oskar Schell. The clever young actors performance simply unbelievable, it is hard to believe how easily he played such a dramatic story. The screenwriters did a intelligent choice maintaining the storyline Oskar finds the key in his fathers closet in an envelope which has Black written on it, inside a sad vase and desperately starts an expedition in NYC to find the lock that fits the key. So far so good, however the three-narrators perspective we have in the book thats gives the story an exciting dynamic, is completely ignored and we have Oskar as the only narrator of the story. The movie is told from Oskars point of view but it still is very piteous in what refers to his longs internal monologues that are seen in the book. Another point that has been igno... ... on his emotional response, combined with the same melancholic music every time. However, the melancholy of the vociferation would always change into violent, loud, confusing notes whenever Oskar was outside on th e streets facing his fears. Here the use of various points of views from Oskars perspective was explored. Extreme close ups on objects worry screws were often used to demonstrate Oskars panic. Although all the changes which are necessary but still bothers the readers of the original work, the film contained the same melancholy and excitement in the story. We learn in both works that the number of people who leave is high, but the one who stay is even higher and everyone has their own story and tribulation to share. The filmic adaptation intensifies the literary work, and both of them can be studied and compared side by side and still have their own particular charm.
