Same story, two characters?
These days, there are very different ways off acquiring knowledge. Films, books, revues, magazines, movies, etc. Surprisingly enough, most of the films our days are take from books. They are modernized and cut down the most important parts.If we compare the film "Igby goes down" with J.D Salinger's "The Catcher in the Rye", we might find the characters of one represented as similar yet different in the other one. At closer comparison, one can see that many characters are similar, even though the different character traits of one figure in the novel might each be represented by a single figure in the film but, the resemblance is nonetheless still very noticeable. Holden is represented mostly by Igby. For example, in the novel, Holden has the tendency of lying in many different circumstances, just like Igby in the film. Another factor that appears in both, the novel and the film, is that both, Igby and Holden had been abused in one way or the other. Holden has been abused many times by teachers from school. Holden says so himself after the awkward experience he had at Mr. Antolini's place, on page 193:
Holden is let down by many people, one of them being Jane. To complete the comparison of Igby and Holden, one last part must be examined the endings of both, the film and the novel. Oliver has taken away Suki from Igby, just like Stradlater took Jane away from Holden. Igby and Holden are very close, the death of a close on, the abuse that both suffered in their youth and the disappointment both experienced in their friends. In the case of the film, Igby does not only feel that way, he is let down by his friend Suki. He was two years younger than I was, but he was about fifty times as intelligent. Salinger's novel and the film "Igby goes down" so close together. Holden on his side lost his brother Allie. That kind of stuff's happened to me about twenty times since I was a kid. Holden let all the emotions that he had held in for all that time out.
