b**eowulf's book and movie**
 ==**we read the poem in the textbook and saw the movie about beowulf. Here, we found that bepwulf's book and movie have some difference. In the book Beowulf goes back to Geatland to become king of his uncles kingdom. In the movie he stays in Denmark and becomes king of Hrothgar's kingdom. In the book Beowulf kills Grendel's mom. In the movie they make love and have a human beast like creature son. Although, in the film Beowulf returns and says he kills her so I guess one could argue it stays in line with the poem that way. In the book she could be still alive and they do the same thing but it doesn't say so we will never know. ** **Also the in the poem there is a larger social backdrop of this type of society that wants peace and stability but that is at odds with a heroic culture of honor and revenge. In the movie they only touch on that very briefly when Beowulf comments on that. however, beowulf's book and movie have something in common. beowulf's book and movie have difict characters as very strong monsters that could take on any demon and devil. beowulf was mainly strength and thoughness. beowulf is a warrior that is considered super human and doesn't really belong anywhere, because he is not truely considered a part of a city.** ==
