To read a book or to see a movie – this is the almighty dilemma. Although most people agree that books
are better than movies we will list the advantages of both so you are free to decide which one you may
prefer.

WHY BOOKS?
You can let your imagination lead you throughout the story
Books let you imagine everything you read. You can imagine the scenes, people and places just the
way you want to. Books let you be creative, and that’s why they are impressive.

Books improve your vocabulary


When reading a challenging book, you are exposed to new words that you would not otherwise
encounter. In that way books are expanding your vocabulary.

Books make you remember the story for longer


Reading a book is a long process. You can enjoy it for weeks if you want. Because of that, the story will
stay in your memory much longer than a movie that lasts only 2 hours.

Books have a lot more detail


Besides the main topic of the book, there are a lot other details in it. By reading a book you can get a
better impression of the story. There are beautiful descriptions of people’s feeling or descriptions of
nature that can leave you breathless without witnessing it live.
WHY MOVIES?
Movies have the socializing factor
You can watch a movie with your friends or family. Even better, you can watch it at home or in the
cinema. Either way you do it, you will be doing it in a social environment.
Movies provide image and sound experiences
When reading a book you can spend a lot of time reading about the physical appearance of the
character, for example. The movie will show you that character in just a few seconds so you don’t
have to think much about the details. The same with the sound and even special effects: a visual or
audio effect will stimulate your senses more and have a greater impact.
Soundtrack to enjoy later
Some of the most beautiful songs of all times were made as a soundtrack for a movie. The way music
and a cinematic scene work together is indeed incredible, because music can set the mood for a
dramatic moment or an epic battle, for example. Re-listening to that song can bring back memories
of the movie or the feeling you had whilst watching it.
A movie demands less time
Movies are quicker in telling the story. There is no need for long written descriptions, as you can just
watch a 5 second scene to get the impression that could take 2 hours of reading. With tight
schedules, people often don’t find enough time to read a book, so 2 hours at the movies solves that
problem.
There are definitely pros and cons for both artistic expressions, but it is best if you experience both
worlds. Another good experiment is to read a book and then watch the movie adaptation. See how
the movie makers changed the plot, portrayed the characters or chose the setting, it’s a great way
of seeing the story differently and enjoying it once more.
Let’s create a story using these words
and their synonyms…..
Beautiful Hot Big Happy Bad

lovely scorching Massive Cheerful Unpleasant

striking Blistering Enormous thrilled Dreadful

Stunning Stifling Immense Ecstatic Horrible
