Tentative Thesis

        After reading Up in the Air by Walter Kirn, and then watching the movie that was later directed by Jason Reitman I saw many difference between the two. The book seemed to portray Ryan Bingham, the main character, as a lonely, dull and isolated individual. He spent his time in hotels and airports. In the movie, Ryan is surrounded by people, mainly women. He is portrayed as someone you could relate or even feel sorry for. I feel that this change could be related to the fact that the movie was made later, after the reputation of a businessman changed after the economy went down.
