Option #1:
Significance- The
character Brome Bones I believe to be the villain in this story line but
especially in the movie. Although it was a movie therefor it was easier to
visualize the characters, Bones motives were very distinct against his
competitor Ichabod. Where as in the novel by Irving, it was left more for the
reader to decipher. This led me to believe that Bones is the mysterious
“headless horseman” in the movie, also because it only portrayed him as a
trouble- maker and up to no good, not his group of men.
Comparisons- Ichabod
was exemplified exactly how I imagined from the reading. Right down to his
physical appearance as well as his characteristics such as his singing and his
way with women. The movie told the story “The legend of Sleepy Hollow” in more
of a light and comedic relief, where as the book was definitely darker, gorier
and more mysterious. The movie did follow the text to great detail; using
certain quotes, bringing the characters to life with the exact personalities
and hitting the high points in the story.
