Film Adaptation And Its Discontents
Considers how the creators of short silent films attempted to give them the weight of literature, what sorts of fidelity are possible in an adaptation of sacred scripture, what it means for an adaptation to pose as an introduction to, and why and how some films have sought impossibly close fidelity to their sources.
