Comparison
The comparison between the video and the pdf
is that in the pdf they talked about. In the video
they showed that people are giving up painting
because it was not paying well, they told no
such thing like this in the pdf. In the pdf they
did not talk more about Mr. Behrman’s crazy
love for painting and in the video, they said that
Mr. Behrman paints everything he sees like
benches of the park, trees , even the stairs of
the building in which he lived. In the pdf they
did not describe the scene where everybody
finds out that Mr. Behrman painted that tree
and after they come to know about it
everybody comes out of their homes and starts
painting.in video johnsy and sue opened an
institution after the name of Mr. Behrman.in
video johnsy wanted to paint London bridge
but in pdf she wanted to paint Bay of Naples.
