Notes
From 5.1 onwards, the individual chapters are becoming briefer and less substantial. You fail to discuss which of the differences between novel and film are due to the different media and which are deliberate. Still, a very interesting analysis, with one major flaw: You ought to have adressed the "flashback technique" of the film and the resulting subjectivity of the version of events rendered within the flashbacks. Hence (only) 1.3
