Film Adaptations

Course #: cine 225

Description:
This course explores adaptation across moving image media, literary, theatrical, and other kinds of texts. While principally focused on feature-length movie adaptations, it also considers the way intellectual property has been flexibly repurposed across a variety of media and over the full course of moving image history. Through a set of specific case studies, the course considers aesthetic, formal, cultural, technological, and economic aspects of adaptations. It starts with a comparative approach (one text versus another) before expanding to more complex relationships among original texts and their various intertexts. After exposure to a range of classic and contemporary examples, theories of and approaches to adaptation studies, students will research an adapted text of their own choice for an individual final project.
