Comparison And Contrast “I may look like a rhinoceros, but I have a thin skin really.” This is one of my favorite lines from my favorite movies, as well as books, “Circle of Friends”. As with many made into movies there are many differences between the book and the movie. “Circle of Friends” is the story of Benny, Eve, Nan, Jack, and their circle of friends. It is a story of love, loss, friendship, and growing up. In the movie Benny, Eve, and Nan are all in school together in their hometown of Knockglen, Ireland. On the day of the girls’ confirmation, Nan tells Eve and Benny that she is moving to Dublin. The three of them do not meet up again until their first day at the University. The story in the book begins on the day of Benny’s tenth birthday party. Benny invited the girls in her class, and her mother made her invite the orphan who lived at the local church, Eve. Benny was polite to Eve, but really did not want her there. A couple of days later, Benny defended Eve, and Eve stuck up for Benny, and they became friends for life. benny, eve, movie, jack, book, nan, friends, relationship, day, school, out, mother, time, tells, story, right, back, westwards, until, university, one, meet, love, goes, first, both, after, two, together, thing, pregnant, nothing, next, money, lunch
