“Reflection on A Worn Path”

The point of view in the story and the point of view in the movie are different in a lot of ways. In the story you are obviously left to make your own images of the story, but in the movie, it helps to paint a picture of symbolism. In the story, the point of view seems to focus on the old woman. In the movie, however, it seems to reinforce the points of view of all the other people that the old woman comes across.
