“Then Matt, watching the parking lot and the road, walked quickly between the car and
the building and stood behind Strout. He took one leather glove from his pocket and put it on his
left hand. “Don’t talk. Unlock the front and back and get in” “Its cocked. Drive to your house.”
Matt Fowler’s son Frank was murdered by Mr. Strout, the literature and the movie do a great job
portraying the story of Matt Fowler’s murder of his son’s killer.
However even though the story and movie have the same plot, the emotions and small
details make for two very different type of moods. The literature as you can see by the quotes
above, tells a very different story than the movie and shows a methodical and planned out Matt
Fowler, someone with no remorse with a rage inside to get justice for his son that was murdered.
The movie however tends to show more of a bond between father and son and more of their past
