The story, “A Worn Path” – Eudora Welty, was told in a third person point of view but the narrator was learning about the story as it was being told. He/she did not know what was waiting in the path of Phoenix Jackson (i.e. the hunter).
In the movie, the story was told in more of a first person point of view, through Phoenix Jackson’s view. More than the story, I feel connected with Phoenix because of this.
I remember we talked about perspective difference from a story and a movie. After comparing two movies with the original story, it is obvious that it is easier to be connected with the characters through movies more because most of the time, the story is told from a single character perspective.
