Both Elie weasel and Wladyslaw szpilman were taken out of their homes and put in ghettos. Elie was younger than Wladyslaw so he acted out of emotion when things happened and not reason. Both were Jewish obviously. Since Wlady was older he had connections with the police, and other people who could help him and his family. One thing that is different is that Wlady got to escape from the labor camps unlike Elie who had to stay until they were liberated. The fact that he got to escape made him feel like he could do more things. Like when they were taking bricks from the wall he was able to get bread from the store. Also, he was able to smuggle guns to the other side so they would be able to fight back. We both know how that went. Elie had someone to live for in his father, and he gave him life advice. As for Wlady he only had himself.
