Many people who have read the book and watched the movie entitle The Outsiders liked the book better. The movie does not show all of the emotions that the characters have, but it does have feature popular actors from the 1980s.

The book was different from the movie because the movie had deleted scenarios from the book. However, in the full version, they did a pretty good job of being faithful to the book. Another difference was the character's apperance. In the book it said that Dallas Winston had blonde hair. in the movie, Dally appeared to have dark brown hair. In the book, it also didn't describe that Johnny was of a different race (darker in skin tone). One last difference was that the movie has much less detail then the book. In the book it described how Ponyboy felt about everything. In the movie everything just went fast and it didnt really talk about the way Ponyboy felt.

The movie had a couple differences than the book. Some of the characters did not appear in the movie as much as they did in the book. In the Movie the Socs were from the South instead of the West. Ponyboy doesn't smoke as much in the movie as they said so in the book. In the movie, Dallys and Sodapop's hair were brown instead of blonde. During the movies, they sat on chairs and walked home. In the book, they sat on blankets and drove home in a car. In the book, Ponyboy and Johnny sleep in the lot looking at the stars. In the movie, they slept in the woods looking at the stars. When Ponyboy comes home around 2:00am, Darry slaps him across the face. In the movie, Darry pushes Ponyboy and he falls over a chair. When Dally takes them out to eat, Johnny and Ponyboy gobble their food down. In the movie, Johnny drops his burger. In the movie, When Johnny and Darry are in the hospital, Ponyboy doesn't feel very well

I've seen both the movie and read the book. As with any book that's made into a movie, there are many parts cut out to make the movie shorter

Book outsiders similar to the movie outsiders?

The book and the movie are similar but they cut many parts of the movie to make it shorter but they still have the same characters even though their appearances change a little. The plot is still the same and many of the events that were in the book were also in the movie.
