The Adventures of Tintin (film) - Differences From The Source Material

Differences From The Source Material

The film mainly draws its story from The Secret of the Unicorn (1943) and The Crab with the Golden Claws (1941), and to a much lesser degree from Red Rackham's Treasure (1944). There are several differences from the source material, most notably with regard to the antagonists. In the book, Ivan Sakharine is a minor character, neither a villain nor the descendant of Red Rackham, and the main villains are instead the Bird brothers, who are absent from the film adaptation (save for a small "cameo" in the initial sequence at the market).

Famous quotes containing the words differences, source and/or material:

    Harold Rosenberg (1906–1978)

    It is thus tolerance that is the source of peace, and intolerance that is the source of disorder and squabbling.
    Pierre Bayle (1647–1706)

    When science is learned in love, and its powers are wielded by love, they will appear the supplements and continuations of the material creation.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
