In both It’s a Wonderful Life and The
Family Man there are many similarities and differences that are made. These
similarities and differences vary greatly between both movies. I say this for
many reasons and these reasons will be described as I continue throughout this
blog.
I am going to start off with the similarities that both
movies portray. In both movies, the main character has friends, but is
portrayed as to being all for themselves. Another thing that is shown in both
movies is that our main characters are men. Does this mean something? I think
not. Also (in both movies) both of our main characters (protagonists) have
business careers. As the similarities of both of our movies come along, so does
more similarities. In the beginnings of both movies our protagonists are not in
intimate relationships, but (however) this changes throughout the movies. So,
as you can probably guess, both of our protagonists get into intimate
relationships. Another thing that both of our protagonists/ main characters has
in common in these movies is that they both have guardian angels. Last, but definitely
not least, is the fact that both of our main characters/protagonists work for
investment companies.
Alright now we’re in the differences between both
movies. So, to start off with is that even though our main character in It’s a Wonderful Life is a business man,
he did not choose to be. Whereas in The Family
Man, our main character has chosen to be a business man and is even
negatively passionate about his job. Another thing about The Family Man is that our main character is president of an
investment house.
Well as you can see there are many differences between It’s a Wonderful Life and The Family Man as there are also many
similarities. Done.
