Lesson: Unit 2 Lesson 2 12/13
Vonnegut’s “Harrison Bergeron” and 2081 present different versions of their main character’s age, appearance, and final speech. What other differences do you notice between the story and the film? Why do you think the filmmakers made those changes? Does this change the effectiveness of Harrison’s story? Is the short story or the film more “realistic” in the kind of person Harrison would be? Why do you think so?
