The differences lie on limitation characters and characterization, and the setting of place, plot, and point of view. Most events in the movie version are changed because Rob Marshall changes the plot of the story. He creates the movie different from the novel because he wants to make the story a little bit different from the novel but not leave the original story. He also wants to save the production costs because the story of the novel is too long, so it will need high costs if the story is not different or changed little bit from the novel. And the film also makes the audiences exhausted if the story is too long.
