Difference between movie and novel of The Scarlet Letter.

In our Department of English MKBU on 26th july 2018 we had movie screening of The Scarlet Letter. This novel is written by Natheniel Hawthorne.

I have found the difference between movie and the original novel.

1)In the novel we can find that novel opens with custom  house but in  the movie we can find other burial seen.

2)  In the novel we can find first that Hester Prynne was  with her daughter Pearl  but in movie Story begins with love story of Hester Prynne and Dimmesdale.

3) In novel author mentioned the letter 'A' on Dimmesdale' s chest but in movie we can not find it.

4) In movie the daughter of Hester 'pearl'is still little and she has not any relationship with nature. But in novel Hawthorne mentioned good relationship with nature  of  Pearl.

5)In the  movie we find the relationship of Hester with her slave as Master slave relationship but in the  novel we are not able to find it.

6)In the movie Roger Chillingworth was aslo committed suicide  but in novel he meet with natural death.
In  the novel he gave his property to pearl but in movie we can  not find his  any kind of sympathy for pearl.

7) In the  novel Dimmesdale aslo became ill and meet with death but in movie he was alive and we had not faound any kind of illness.

8) In the novel  Dimmesdale and Chillingworth both were died but in movie Dimmesdale was alive and live with his wife and daughter.
Mean movie presents happy ending.

So this kind of difference we can find in both.
