Did This Scene Happen In «The Hunger Games» Book, Movie, Or Both?

Rue’s score of 7 is shown in the movie and in the book!

Peeta refuses to let Katniss go to the main food supply alone to get the medicine he needs, saying he will follow her there. Haymitch sends her sleeping syrup that she secretly gives to him to make him sleep for 24 hours.

Haymitch calls Katniss «sweetheart» in both the book and the movie.

In the movie, Katniss freaks out because she thinks the Nightlock killed Peeta, and Peeta tells her he didn’t know they were Nightlock.

Madge was written out of the movie. In the books, she is the mayor’s daughter who has known Katniss since she was little. She is the one who gifts Katniss with the pin. In the book, it is a random woman in the hob.

In the books, a Gamemaker named Claudius Templesmith announces Katniss and Peeta as winners. Seneca Crane isn’t actually introduced until the second book, Catching Fire.

The night vision glasses help Katniss throughout the Games in the book after Rue explains what they’re for. This wasn’t shown in the movie.

Katniss and Peeta are alone for a little bit before they catch up with Cato, and she gets upset when his stomping scares away the game she’s trying to hunt.

This moment happens in both the book and the movie! Katniss really shoots straight.

In the book, Peeta and Katniss wait around for a really long time before the Gamemakers announce the change of rules. After Cato is dead, she wonders why they aren’t immediately crowned as victors. In the movie, this occurs right after Cato dies.

This part was cut from the movie, but Peeta’s leg becomes so infected that surgeons have to remove it once he and Katniss are out of the arena. Similarly, Katniss’s hearing in her left ear is restored — she’d lost it blowing up the Career’s food supply.

Both! Cinna puts Katniss in yellow — a dress described as beautiful candlelight.
