THIRD PERSON

Authors Writing Style: FAIR

Characterization: GOOD

Commerciality: GOOD

Franchise Potential: FAIR

Pace: GOOD

Premise: GOOD

Structure: GOOD

Theme: GOOD

Yes, it does depict the book.

The characters' introduction is attractive and somewhat creative. James Powell is a renowned pianist, but he is presented as a common old man.

Some of the actions could be better developed, such as Frankie running away from her grandfather's rally when she was expected to play, which seems too convenient and simple.

THE STORY DOES NOT RELY ON SPECIAL EFFECTS

The theme itself. The characters' quest to fulfilling their dreams and finding their inner self.

It could make people deeply affectionate about the main characters and their inner struggles.

Yes, but the racial issues should be better set up with extensive research, and the author could improve the conflicts for them to reach the theme's level.

MEDIUM BUDGET

GREEN BOOK - A BLACK ARTIST EXPERIENCES RACISM AND FORMS A BOND WITH A WHITE FRIEND. WHIPLASH - A YOUNG, TALENTED MUSICIAN IS PUSHED BY AN OLDER ARTIST TO ACHIEVE THE EXCELLENCE LEVEL.

An unusual friendship develops between a teenage girl and an elderly.

The fact that they are both very talented, but they still face some lack of confidence.

Not a rare gem. It would have to amplify the drama related to the racial issues and artistic struggles, and also change the narrative's tone a little bit.

CONSIDER

The book's structure is good, the pace is well-developed, and the dialogue is fitting and reflects the language used at the time (further research would still be necessary, though). The plot entertains while still having historical relevance. Besides the racial matter, the theme of the narrative is universal because it explores friendship and the search for fulfilling our dreams. However, even though the author was able to create a captivating story, his narrative choices are still a bit raw, and it requires an experienced screenwriter to adapt the book into a successful film/series. Furthermore, the characters are memorable, but some of the book's scenes could still be improved. They sometimes feel too childish to reflect the dramatic importance of racism. At the same time, dealing with themes like these with a lighter touch also has a positive side because it makes us reflect on the problem without sounding like a lecture. Overall, the content is robust. It just needs polishing.
