Mohammed, can you be certain your tutor isn't looking in? I think you'll find it sorta has to be your own work.

Is Naked Lunch a text now? It was a bit rude, as I remember.

Here are the user reviews from IMDB http://www.imdb.com/t...t0102511/usercomments - if you look through those you should find sufficient comparisons between the book and film to be able to write something of your own.

my opinion was that I didn't much like either of them; but I doubt that's really much help to you.

Naked Lunch is about this little man called Bilbo who is visited by a wizard and some dwarves one day who cajole him into going off on a quest to find gold.
They have many adventures along the way including fighting with Trolls, discovering a magic ring which makes you invisible, and slaying a fire breathing dragon.
The Cronenburg film doesn't do the book justice, as it introduces several elements not present in the book, such as the boat trip with the belly dancing androids, and only covers the relationship between Bilbo and his hamster very sketchily.
Tom Cruise however is excellent in the role of Gloin.
