Distinguish between facts and fictions that are
portrayed in the movie or which aspect of the plot that is accurate to the
historical fact in the JTR murders and which aspect of the plot that is based
on the filmmaker’s own imagination.
The From Hell movie is a crime drama horror
mystery that is about the Jack the Ripper. However, based on the movie, I found that there is
several aspect of different plot between the historical facts in the Jack the Ripper
murders and the movie itself.
The film has differs significantly
from the real story of Jack the Ripper. For instance, the real Jack Ripper was
never caught and it is also significant theories about the Jack Ripper’s
identity. Beside, there is a lot different about the character of Inspector Frederick
Abberline by Johnny Depp who is the visionary and sympathetic police. In the
movie, it shows him as a young man, with usual insight into the criminal mind
with his psychic abilities, while in the historical fact of Jack the Ripper, he
is known as a middle aged detective, diligent, and not an opium addict. Also,
in the movie, he died because of overdose drug, while in the real story; he is
actually died at the age of eighty-six in his house.
Other than that, in the movie, it
shows that Abberline has relationship with Mary Kelly. She is a young
prostitute or ‘bangtail’. However, in the fact of story, they are not in
relationship. This is because in the real story, they knowing each other
slightly from drinking at a pub. There is no romance between them and Mary
Kelly herself plays no role in investigating the mystery of case.
