Line 1:
{{work}}{{cleanup|This page tries to cover both the novel and the film. They should be broken out into separate work pages.}}
'''''Bridge to Terabithia''''' is a novel by Katherine Paterson, and there are two [[Film of the Book|film adaptations]] (a 1985 [[Made for TV Movie]] by the [[PBS]] and a 2007 theatrical film produced by [[Walden Media]]).
Line 38:
** Apparently, the filmmakers were none too pleased with the way the movie was marketed, either.
*** Especially since the key screenwriter was David Pattinson, the ''son'' of the original author and on whom Jesse is based.
* [[Paracosm]]: Terabithia.
* [[Precocious Crush]]: Jesse has a crush on his music teacher, Ms. Edmunds.
* [[Reality Is Unrealistic]]: The real-life inspiration for Leslie was Katherine Paterson's son's childhood friend, Lisa Hill {{spoiler|who was killed by a lightning strike while climbing some rocks on a beach. The author originally intended to finish off Leslie the same way but ultimately changed it to a drowning because she felt it would be more believable. Probably right, but ironic.}}
Line 48 ⟶ 49:
* [[Unwitting Instigator of Doom]]: Ms. Edmunds invites Jesse to come to the art museum with her, and Jesse doesn't invite Leslie, {{spoiler|sealing her fate}}. Jesse [[It's All My Fault|knows this and regrets it]].
* [["Well Done, Son" Guy]]: Jesse's relationship with his father.
