Have the differences of the movie's ending from the book ever been explained? - Girl And Boy Having Fun While Reading A Book

I have just finished watching 1984, with John Hurt and Richard Burton. It stuck fairly to the book, except for two major (for me) differences.

  1. At the end, Winston is not shot.
  2. When Winston and Julia meet after Room 101, each of them says “I told them about you”, which seems wishy-washy compared to the book’s “I betrayed you”, which goes so much further than telling someone something.

Does anyone know if these deviations from the book, especially the latter, were ever justified by the director or script writer?

What happens at the end of deep water?

Instead, the film ends with a baffling car chase and two people inexplicably deciding to stay together despite the fact that one's a cold-blooded murderer and the other's a serial adulterer. And if that wasn't weird enough, the end credits feature Trixie singing along to Leo Sayer's "You Make Me Feel Like Dancing".

How is the book it different from the movie?

The main difference between the book and the movie is a structural one. In the novel, the action cuts back and forth between the young and old Losers' Club as they battle Pennywise.
