The 1953
film is loosely based on the H.G. Wells novel. The film differs from the book
in several aspects. In particular, the role of religion, the aliens look, and
the alien spacecraft all differ.
Additionally, the original was set in Victorian England while the film
has a decidedly Cold War feel including nuclear weapons. In the end, the 1953
adaptation won an Oscar for special effects and included in the National Film
Registry.
