Write a 2 page essay on Analytical Brief where you have to compare the Movie of The Time Machine (1960) and the BOOK/ NOVEL of the The Time Machine written by H.G. Wells with Signet class as the publisher. The theme is SOCIETY, do not forget to relate the whole to it.

The film and the book manage to solve the problem through the invention of the time machine that can travel to the past and to the future.

Both the film and the book carry the theme of classicism and some of the possible effect of classicism. The results of the classicism as Wells explains in the book are that human beings lose their sense of emotion and care for one another.

Weena manages to respond to the affection shown to her by the Time Traveler. The love and affection prompts the Time Traveler to take another deliberate journey into the future if only to meet Weena. The book however, does not demonstrate love and affection and only mentions that Weena and the Time Traveler had contact. Wells writes that “That was the beginning of a queer friendship which lasted a week, and ended” (45). The book
