  • The Art of Adaptation
    Ritgerð til M.A.-prófs Bókmenntir, Menning og Miðlun The Art of Adaptation The move from page to stage/screen, as seen through three films Margrét Ann Thors 301287-3139 Leiðbeinandi: Guðrún Björk Guðsteinsdóttir Janúar 2020 2 Big TAKK to ÓBS, “Óskar Helps,” for being IMDB and the (very) best 3 Abstract This paper looks at the art of adaptation, specifically the move from page to screen/stage, through the lens of three films from the early aughts: Spike Jonze’s Adaptation, Alejandro González Iñárritu’s Birdman, or The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance, and Joel and Ethan Coen’s O Brother, Where Art Thou? The analysis identifies three main adaptation-related themes woven throughout each of these films, namely, duality/the double, artistic madness/genius, and meta- commentary on the art of adaptation. Ultimately, the paper seeks to argue that contrary to common opinion, adaptations need not be viewed as derivatives of or secondary to their source text; rather, just as in nature species shift, change, and evolve over time to better suit their environment, so too do (and should) narratives change to suit new media, cultural mores, and modes of storytelling. The analysis begins with a theoretical framing that draws on T.S. Eliot’s, Linda Hutcheon’s, Kamilla Elliott’s, and Julie Sanders’s thoughts about the art of adaptation. The framing then extends to notions of duality/the double and artistic madness/genius, both of which feature prominently in the films discussed herein. Finally, the framing concludes with a discussion of postmodernism, and the basis on which these films can be situated within the postmodern artistic landscape.

A leader and pioneer in curriculum based standards and exciting and educational custom designed workshops and presentations, she has been recognized as a cutting edge and highly effective creative presence within public and private schools nationwide. She has been dedicated to arts and education for the past twenty years. Graduating from New York University with a degree in theater and communication, she began her work early on as a theatrical talent agent and casting director in Hollywood. Due to her expertise and comprehensive focus on education, she was asked to teach acting to at-risk teenagers with Jean Stapleton's foundation, The Academy of Performing and Visual Arts in East Los Angeles. Out of her work with these artistically talented and gifted young people, she co-wrote and directed a musical play entitled Second Chance, which toured as an Equity TYA contract to over 350,000 students in California and surrounding states. National mental health experts recognized the play as an inspirational arts model for crisis intervention, and interpersonal issues amongst teenagers at risk throughout the country. WGBH/PBS was so impressed with the play they commissioned it for adaptation to teleplay in 1996.

    Studiocanal présente Billy Elliot un film de Stephen Daldry avec Jamie Bell, Gary Lewis, Jamie Draven, Julie Walters SORTIE LE 13 DÉCEMBRE 2017 1H50 Distribution TAMASA 5 rue de Charonne - 75011 Paris Tél. 01 43 59 01 01 - [email protected] Presse Camille Calcagno [email protected] Tél. 01 43 59 64 37 Billy, onze ans, découvre avec surprise qu’un cours de danse partage désormais les mêmes locaux que son club de boxe. D’abord intrigué puis bientôt fasciné par la magie de la gestuelle, Billy abandonne les gants de cuir pour assister discrètement aux leçons de danse. Devant le talent potentiel de sa jeune recrue, son professeur, Mme Wilkinson, trouve une nouvelle énergie. Mais le père de Billy et son grand frère Tony, tous deux mineurs en grève, se battent quotidien nement pour assurer le minimum à leur famille. Les frustrations explosent quand ils découvrent que Billy a dépensé l’argent consa cré aux cours de boxe pour des activités nettement moins viriles. Autour de Billy Elliot L’idée de BILLY ELLIOT est venue à Lee Hall alors qu’il vivait aux Etats-Unis et qu’il travaillait sur des récits autour de sa propre enfance. Il avait également en tête d’écrire quelque chose évoquant la grande grève des mineurs de 1984, qui, pour lui, était un des épisodes les plus importants de l’histoire récente de l’Angleterre. « Je voulais garder cette grève en toile de fond, tout en m’attachant à rendre les tensions à l’intérieur même de la communauté des mineurs, tensions qui ont fina- lement mené cette grève à l’échec.
