The collection of essays examines films such as \u003ci\u003eThe Talented Mr. Ripley\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Two Faces of January\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eCarol\u003c\/i\u003e, includes interviews with Highsmith adaptors and provides a comprehensive filmography of all existing Highsmith adaptations. Particular attention is paid to queer subtexts, mythological underpinnings, philosophical questioning, contrasting media environments and formal conventions in diverse generic contexts. Produced over the space of seventy years, these adaptations reflect broad cultural and material shifts in film production and critical approaches to film studies. The book is thus not only of interest to Highsmith admirers but to anyone interested in adaptation and transatlantic film history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2018-10-20\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319960494\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-96050-0\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 210cm x148cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 294\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45418055893132,"sku":"9783319960494","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319960494.jpg?v=1774037095","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783319960494","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
