Comparing the Book and Film, Shaara's The Killer Angels

Number of Pages 3

This essay offers a comparison between Michael Shaara's novel The Killer Angels and the 1993 film "Gettysburg," directed by Ronald F. Maxwell. While the film follows the book faithfully for the most part, the writer argues that there is a degree of poetic license taken with the material in order to heighten the dramatic quality of the narrative. Three pages in length, two sources are cited.
