Course Description

While there have been great original screenplays, Hollywood would have a much different history without the adaptations of novels, stories and plays. This course will look at the history of filmmakers bringing literary and popular works to the screen — Shakespeare and Dickens, Stephen King and Ian Fleming, Jane Austen and J.R.R. Tolkien. We will feature short film clips, and the classes will largely be built on discussion. We will frequently pose the age-old question: which is better, the film or the book?
