10. Conclusion
◦ In novel we have two different person with same fake identities “Ernest”.
And in movie we have one person with four different fake identities . So
my point is one cannot hide their real identities some or the other way
fake identities are revealed. Same way in novel also it was revealed and
same as movie .
