book to movie

Black Hawk Down: The movie adaptation was only slightly different from the book , the only parts that really had to be cut out were all the different points of views that the book reads.  There weren't enough minutes in the movie to show that.  Another thing that was cut out was the Malaysian drivers fleeing form the Rangers instead of picking up those who were uninjured foricing them to run the whole way back to base.
Parts I believe are essenstial are when the two Delta Snipers rope down to defend Durants Crash site and both die there but hold off a huge crowd.  This saves Durants life and makes the D-Boys heros.
Another scene that is nescessary is obviosly the main part of the mission which is securing the prisoners.
and lastly the next is when Stebbins gets hit with the rpg and hurts his foot which is ironic considering he was just hit with a rocket.
Two parts I would cut would have to be all the things that happened during the night and all the radio conversations which would get boring.
