![]() show series Bleak House?Ī serial in literature is when a larger single work, often a work of narrative fiction, is published in smaller, sequential installments usually in the newspaper. Why do these writers still take the huge task of disappointing and letting down the audience who read the novel? Through this thinking and my love for the novel Bleak House, I created the question: To what extent did Andrew Davies adapt Charles Dickens’s novel into his T.V. This comes with the questions of why directors and writers still try to adapt novels into movies and shows. There is also a limited amount of storytelling in a movie or show, and the script may not do the story justice. On top of that, if the actor doesn’t live up to what the reader expected, then the reader will be disappointed. ![]() 500 different readers of the same book may have 500 different ideas of a character’s appearance. People have their own interpretation and image of what the book is supposed to look like. Individuals that have read the books and go see the movie will always be disappointed because the book is always the original and correct way of presenting the literature. It is impossible for every image, feeling, and effect to be translated from a novel into a movie or show. Movies and shows only give a slight insight into the world that is perceived by the literature. Every time that a literary work is translated into a movie or show, most of the audience believes that a lot of things were left out and that the book will always be superior. ![]()
