  • Ruth Prawer Jhabvala's Adapted Screenplays
    Absorbing the Worlds of Others: Ruth Prawer Jhabvala’s Adapted Screenplays By Laura Fryer Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of a PhD degree at De Montfort University, Leicester. Funded by Midlands 3 Cities and the Arts and Humanities Research Council. June 2020 i Abstract Despite being a prolific and well-decorated adapter and screenwriter, the screenplays of Ruth Prawer Jhabvala are largely overlooked in adaptation studies. This is likely, in part, because her life and career are characterised by the paradox of being an outsider on the inside: whether that be as a European writing in and about India, as a novelist in film or as a woman in industry. The aims of this thesis are threefold: to explore the reasons behind her neglect in criticism, to uncover her contributions to the film adaptations she worked on and to draw together the fields of screenwriting and adaptation studies. Surveying both existing academic studies in film history, screenwriting and adaptation in Chapter 1 -- as well as publicity materials in Chapter 2 -- reveals that screenwriting in general is on the periphery of considerations of film authorship. In Chapter 2, I employ Sandra Gilbert’s and Susan Gubar’s notions of ‘the madwoman in the attic’ and ‘the angel in the house’ to portrayals of screenwriters, arguing that Jhabvala purposely cultivates an impression of herself as the latter -- a submissive screenwriter, of no threat to patriarchal or directorial power -- to protect herself from any negative attention as the former. However, the archival materials examined in Chapter 3 which include screenplay drafts, reveal her to have made significant contributions to problem-solving, characterisation and tone.

  • Script Coverage Guide 1
    *Agency* Coverage Program A Brief Introduction to Coverage Excerpts from “Full Coverage: How to Analyze a Script (In the Real World)” by M.J. Daugherty Many would-be Assistants begin their quest for Hollywood glory in that most noble of all academic institutions: film school. The professors often require their students to write essays analyzing films and screenplays from historical, psychological or even sociological standpoints, while striving to uncover the deeper symbolic meaning behind films sublime to ridiculous. College essays are valuable tools in learning how to look at films and scripts analytically, but in Hollywood, the only symbol most people are concerned about is “$” (or sometimes “%”). As an Assistant, there is only one reason that you will be asked to read a script – to help your boss decide if it is worth his or her time, and you will be expected to give that opinion clearly, confidently, and most importantly, concisely, often in the form of “coverage.” For an Assistant with aspirations of moving up in the Hollywood pecking order, reading scripts is a great place to start. Coverage is one of the few chances that most Assistants have to really have their opinions heard, and it is one of the easiest ways for an Assistant to take some initiative for finding a new project or client. Yes, it can be a chore, especially given that the majority of undiscovered scripts out there are undiscovered for a reason. But if you can build a reputation as someone who shows intelligence and “good taste” (i.e. you have some sense of what might actually sell), then you will be on the path to success.

  • Toni Wolff Revisited – a Study in Opposites Four Eternal Women
    PSYCHOLOGY / MOVEMENTS / JUNGIAN Toni Wolff was at first the patient, and later the friend, mistress for a time, long-term colleague and personal analyst of Swiss Psychiatrist Carl Jung. In addition to her work as the founder, leader and teacher for the Psychological Society in Zürich which led to the establishment of the world-renowned C.G. Jung Institute in Zürich/Küsnacht, she published a seminal but little known work called “Structural Forms of the Feminine Psyche” (“Der Psychologie,” Berne, 1951). This treatise, certainly one of the first studies in Analytical Psychology, has been the subject of the authors’ investigation, attention, research and study for the past twelve years. Toni Wolff’s original outline of her four archetypes barely filled fifteen pages of the journal, and was written in the academic style of professional publications of that period, sans illustration or commentary. While Wolff’s work has been mentioned in short form in the work of several writers, Four Eternal Women is the first full and serious archetypal delineation of her original thesis, and examines each of her four feminine archetypes from several perspectives: • Wolff’s Own Words • An Overview of History and Myth • Familiar Characteristics • Lesser-Known (Shadow) Possibilities • Career Inclinations • Relationships to Men • Relationships to Children • Relationships to Each of the Other Types The tension of the opposites set up by Wolff’s own diagrammatic representation of these archetypes provided an additional dynamic to this study. Those who have followed Jung’s individuation path will recognize aspects of Jung’s ‘Transcendent Function.’ All readers may well become personally sensitized to discover their own type preferences, and how some aspects of shadow may be present in their ‘opposite’ partner.
