Описание: Spanning examples from Shakespeare to Ghost World, and addressing such notable directors as Welles, Kubrick, Hawks, Tarkovsky, and Ophuls, the contributors to this volume write against the grain of recent adaption studies by investigating the question of what fidelity might mean in its broadest and truest sense and what it might reveal of the adaptive process.

Описание: Directed by Donald Cammell and Nicolas Roeg, and starring James Fox, Mick Jagger and Anita Pallenberg, Performance was filmed in 1968, but not released until 1970. When its studio backers saw the director's cut, they were so shocked by the film's sexual explicitness and formal radicalism that attempts were made to destroy the negative. In his study of the film, Colin MacCabe draws on extensive interviews with surviving participants to present the definitive history of the making of Performance, as well as a new interpretation of its consummate artistry.This edition includes an afterword reflecting on the film 50 years on, and the reasons for its continuing classic status. Performance’s extraordinary power, suggests MacCabe, comes partly from its entrancing portrayal of London in the late 1960s, but primarily from its full scale assault on any notion of normality, not simply at the level of content but also of form. The remarkable ending, when the thriller and the psychodrama merge into one, means that there is no comfortable resolution to the film’s meanings. Performance is one of those rare narrative film which takes us into the complexity of sound and image without the comforting guarantee of a safe exit.

Описание: One of the lessons I learned from seeking the origins of my family is to understand the role of education in raising a family's standard of living over generations and the need to seek perhaps far away new opportunities to develop one's skills and build a future, thus, a flow of emigration from Europe took place. Whilst much has changed in the world since the end of the Second World War, power struggles continue. Europe is now faced with movements of immigration and unfortunately, our sense of hospitality and adaptation is not always at the level of respect of humanitarian values that we may wish to see. Now our whole civilisation is confronted at the same time with climate change and pollution of our own making by bad national/international housekeeping of our towns, countryside, rivers, seaside and oceans. Technology has progressed rapidly and brought many advantages to our way of living. However, there appears to be a decline in interest shown by youth for subjects of the past such as literature, history and culture despite many amenities made available for these subjects. But, we should always have confidence in younger generations to face the challenges as long as they develop their sense of curiosity in all fields of life, always wanting to know why things were done in such a way, how can it all be corrected, what needs to be done to improve the quality of justice and life for those at the lower end of the scale. By their determination and courage they will make their contribution to improve many things and to offset new evils that are bound to come. Nothing is perfect on this earth but we should never give up and always be positive. I am confident that youth shall respond
