4. Charles Freck isn’t in the movie a lot compared to the book.
5. Shows what Substance D looks like.

1. Why isn’t Jerry Fabin in the Movie?
2. Why were major parts of the book left out?
3. Why are Jerry and Charles characters combined?

1. Fade Transition Chapter 9 going into Chapter 10
2. Chapter 4: :20-Chapter 5 Over the Shoulder between Barris and Freck

1. The film was very good and cleared a lot of questions I had because it showed what Phillip K. Dick was trying to get across but couldn’t really explain in a book.
