The purpose of this blog is to unify common themes, characters, and/or motifs in American culture across the media of literature and film. In some of the classic pieces of American film are found the same obsessive characters, overall themes, motifs, and pursuit of a general mode of perfection that fill the classics of American literature. There are three posts; each one is a direct comparison between a book and a film with similar themes and/or characters. The first post compares Bartleby to the film Raging Bull. The second post compares The Great Gatsby to Citizen Kane. The third compares numerous works to Taxi Driver.
