ISBN: 1403974284 ISBN-13: 9781403974280 Publisher: Palgrave MacMillan OUR PRICE: $104.49 Product Type: Hardcover Published: March 2006 Annotation: 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. |
