The Scandal of Adaptation
ISBN: 9783031141522 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The essays in this volume seek to expose the scandals of adaptation. Some of them focus on specific adaptations that have been considered scandalous because they portray characters acting in ways that give scandal, because they are thought to betray the values enshrined in the texts they adapt, because their composition or reception raises scandalous possibilities those adapted texts had repressed, or because they challenge their audiences in ways those texts had never thought to do. Others consider more general questions arising from the proposition that all adaptation is a scandalous...

Perry Mason
ISBN: 9780814331217 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Perry Mason was one of the most successful television programs from the 1950s and remains one of the most influential crime melodramas from any period. The show's influence goes far beyond its nine-year tenure (1957-66), the millions of dollars it generated for its creators and for CBS, and the definitive identification it provided its star, Raymond Burr. Perry Mason has become a true piece of Americana, evolving through a formulaic approach that law professors continue to use today as a teaching tool. In his examination of Perry Mason, author Thomas Leitch looks at why this series has...

Film Adaptation and Its Discontents: From Gone with the Wind to the Passion of the Christ
ISBN: 9780801892714 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Most books on film adaptation--the relation between films and their literary sources--focus on a series of close one-to-one comparisons between specific films and canonical novels. This volume identifies and investigates a far wider array of problems posed by the process of adaptation. Beginning with an examination of why adaptation study has so often supported the institution of literature rather than fostering the practice of literacy, Thomas Leitch considers how the creators of short silent films attempted to give them the weight of literature, what sorts of fidelity are possible...

Find the Director and Other Hitchcock Games
ISBN: 9780820333496 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Developing a model of narrative based on game theory, Thomas Leitch offers a compelling new explanation for the distinctiveness and power of Hitchcock's films. Games such as the director's famous cameo appearances, the author says, allow the audience simultaneously to immerse itself in the world created by the narrative and to stand outside that world and appreciate the self-consciously suspenseful or comic techniques that make the movie peculiarly Hitchcockian. A crucial aspect of the director's gameplaying, Leitch contends, emerges in the way he repeatedly redefines the rules. Leitch...

Crime Films
ISBN: 9780521646710 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Focusing on ten films that span the range of the twentieth century, Thomas Leitch traces the transformation of three figures common to all crime films: the criminal, the victim and the avenger. He shows how the distinctions among them become blurred throughout the course of the century, reflecting and fostering a deep social ambivalence towards crime and criminals. The criminal, victim and avenger characters effectively map the shifting relations between subgenres (such as the erotic thriller and the police film) within the larger genre of crime film.
