Re: V for Vendetta *spoilers*
First off, my apologies if I've spoiled some parts about the movie to anyone. Didn't really cross my mind when I made my posts.
Next, yeah Evey was turned into the V in the book because that's how V was training her. The movie strayed away from the book when V started sending out masks and costumes to everyone, and personally, I found that premise to be rather unlikely. Sure, he may've changed some minds in London, but I'm sure most people would still be scared to move on their own, and to have that many people stream through the streets of London at the same time seems unlikely to me. Now when I look back through the book, the movie took many liberties with the plot. For instance, there was never a sense of a revolt in the book, so a changing of the guard, so to speak, makes perfect sense. Also it helps show that the idea lives on past the body, which was something V in the movie said ("Ideas are bulletproof"). V was the person in the mask, wig, and cape, not the person.
