Is theater really dead? Does the theater, as its champions insist, really provide a more intimate experience than film? If so, how have changes in cinematic techniques and technologies altered the relationship between stage and film? What are the inherent limitations of representing three-dimensional spaces in a two-dimensional one, and vice versa? American Drama in the Age of Film examines the strengths and weaknesses of both the dramatic and cinematic arts to confront the standard arguments in the film-versus-theater debate. Using widely known adaptation

Billy Wilder, hailed by most as a great filmmaker, often considered himself primarily as a writer. Yet to this day no publisher had thought fit to release literary interpretations of his work. Such an endeavor was clearly missing. The idea of this book is to offer academic but non hermetic readings of nine of his most significant films, informed by literary criticism, Gender Studies, semiotics, Film Studies, and the "artistic sensibility" of its contributors. Literary Readings of Billy Wilder...

On oppose volontiers fiction et cinéma du réel, comme si le 7ème art ne pouvait que choisir entre enregistrer sur le vif ou créer de l'imaginaire. Pourtant, il existe une troisième voie, celle de la reprise, de l'adaptation, où le cinéma s'attaque à RE-présenter ce qui l'a été déjà par les historiens, les écrivains ou les réalisateurs spécialisés dans des genres de styles très accusés. Dans ce vaste domaine, les meilleurs films traitent des sujets qui semblaient avoir trouvé leur forme adéquate auparavant et ailleurs. Ainsi puisent-ils leur inspiration dans des produits déjà fort élaborés et leur mise en scène doit se révéler encore plus inventive. Cet ouvrage se propose donc de mettre en évidence l'opération esthétique nécessaire à transformer des matériaux variés en œuvres d'art cinématographiques.

The essays in this collection analyse major film adaptations of twentieth-century American fiction, from F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Last Tycoon to Toni Morrison's Beloved. During the century, films based on American literature came to play a central role in the history of the American cinema. Combining cinematic and literary approaches, this volume explores the adaptation process from conception through production and reception. The contributors explore the ways political and historical contexts have shaped the transfer from book to screen, and the new perspectives that films bring to literary works. In particular, they examine how the twentieth-century literary modes of realism, modernism, and postmodernism have influenced the forms of modern cinema. Written in a lively and accessible style, the book includes production stills and full filmographies. Together with its companion volume on nineteenth-century fiction, the volume offers a comprehensive account of the rich tradition of American literature on screen.
