In both the book and the movie, the story begins, of course, when a boy named Theo (played as a tween by Oakes Fegley and as an adult by Ansel Elgort) steals The Goldfinchfrom the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the chaotic few moments after a bombing kills his mother and ruptures his world. The main difference between the book version of Theo’s mom ...
In the book, Andy (Theo’s old friend whose family he is sent to live with) and Theo get along well from the get-go, but in the movie, they’re awkward together at first. In both versions, meanwhile, one of the people who died in the bombing was a man named Welty, and right before, Theo have a conversation in which Welty gives Theo a ring. In the mov...
Though Tartt describes Hobie as white (the novel compares him to “antique photos of Irish poets and pugilists”) as well as exceedingly tall (“six foot four or six five, at least”), the movie casts Jeffrey Wright, who is black and around 5-foot-11. Still, in personality, Hobie is pretty much the same. The book portrays more of Theo’s life after he l...
Theo learns more about Pippa’s family backstory in the novel: Her mother, Juliet, died of cancer, and Welty was her mother’s brother; they shared a cruel father. Also in the book and not the movie, Theo and Pippa kiss before she leaves to live with her aunt.

For example, in the book, Boris’ father alternates between affection and violence; in the movie, we only see the latter, and even that we only see briefly. The movie also skips the part of the book where Theo and Bori...
In the book, Theo and Boris reunite after Boris runs after him down the street—rather than inside a bar, where they meet in the movie (and where Theo’s only gone to get drugs, incidentally). Boris reveals to Theo in the book that he sought him out; the movie treats their meeting as if it might be a coincidence. Also, the movie completely leaves out...
In the book, Theo does heroin while holed up in the hotel in Amsterdam, distraught about coming so close but failing to recover the painting. There’s no heroin in the movie; Theo instead abuses pills. In the book, Theo has a vision of Andy in a dream during this period; this isn’t in the movie. In the book, Theo thinks about killing himself or turn...
In the movie, Theo’s father (Luke Wilson), in the context of gambling on sports, mentions that being a Scorpio gives him an advantage and then says astrology is very common in the sports betting world: But this isn’t just the movie trying to be trendy with astrology; it’s right there in the book—in fact, the book has Larry’s sun and rising signs: “...
