Thesis: Up In the Air

Up in the Air is a novel by Walter Kirn as well as a movie starring George Clooney. Both have the same title and one is based off the other yet they are so different. The movie was adjusted to go with the current time when it came out, 2009. It was changed to adapt to everyday life's current economic issues and to appeal to the audience of that time. A story once being about fulfilling your dreams and living your life changed to a film to make the economic crisis the U.S. was going through a little easier to accept.
