This portrays him as a courageous and unemotional detective, which is different from how readers perceived him in the book. He angrily yells Frank’s name out loud and makes a scene wherever he goes (Devil in a Blue Dress Movie 1995). Instead, the movie shows multiple scenes where Easy bombards stores and threatens people to find Frank Green. He describes Frank in the book as a fearing man that has the capability to kill him but we don’t see this in the movie. In the movie viewers don’t get to see the fear that Easy hides. Frank was skitterish, like all gangsters, and if he felt that people were talking about him he got nervous if Frank was nervous he might have killed me before I had time to make my pitch” (Devil in a Blue Dress page 61). He admits, “I never brought up Frank’s name though.
For example, in the book, readers have access to Easy’s intentions and motives when looking for Frank Green.
In the novel, Easy conveys the story through his perspective and, consequently, we have access to his opinions, insights and visuals.
