The Most Dangerous Game by Richard Connell: A Comparison of the Book and Its Movie Adaptation

This is a compare and contrast essay about the short story and film adaptation of Richard Connell's The Most Dangerous Game. The main point that the author is trying to prove is how similar the two are. On the one hand, the author notes differences such as Rainsford's arrival at the island and Zaroff's house. But, on the other hand, the author highlights similarities, such as Rainsford deciding to go on a hunting trip, arriving at Zaroff's home, being Zaroff's target, faking his death, and eventually killing Zaroff.

Jenn's feedback:

"This paper is off to a good start. Based on your introduction, it is clear what the purpose of your essay is. Overall, you also did an excellent job with formatting, with the only noticeable problem being that there is extra space between paragraphs. The organization of the paper is good with the inclusion of both an introduction and a conclusion. I suggest that you create a more precise and concise thesis statement, though, one that tells the reader what the essay's purpose is and summarizes what the reader will learn about in the body of the paper. I also suggest rewording some of your content. For example, in your introduction, you indicate that you will prove how alike the story and movie are, but your first paragraph is about how very different they are. This discrepancy is confusing to the reader. Last, there are grammar, sentence structure, punctuation, and word choice errors throughout the essay that are impacting readability. Make sure that these mistakes are resolved to improve the comprehension and cohesiveness of your writing."
