Film Remakes

This is the first book to provide a comprehensive and systematic account of the phenomenon of cinematic remaking. Drawing upon recent theories of genre and intertextuality, Film Remakes describes remaking as both an elastic concept and a complex situation, one enabled and limited by the interrelated roles and practices of industry, critics, and audiences. This approach to remaking is developed across three broad sections: the first deals with issues of production, including commerce and authors; the second considers genre, plots, and structures; and the third investigates issues of reception, including audiences and institutions.Author: NA, NA,author Contributors: NA, NA,author Binding: hardcover Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Format: Illustrated Edition: 2006 Published/Release Date: 16 Mar 2006 Format: Hardback Publisher/Studio/Brand: Palgrave USA Author/Director/Artist: NA NA Dimension (cm): 238x166x17 mm Package Dimension (cm): 18x236x157 mm Item Weight (g): 454 Package Weight (g): 431
