Примерами ремейков могут служить такие фильмы как «Психо» Гаса Ван Сента (1998, ремейк фильма Хичкока «Психо» 1960 года) или «Город ангелов» (1998, ремейк фильма Вима Вендерса «Небо над Берлином» 1987 года).Данная книга позволит вам узнать больше о кино- и телеиндустрии и познакомит Вас со многими ремейками в истории кино.
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. These points are made through the lively discussion of numerous historical and contemporary examples, including the remaking of classics (Double Indemnity, All That Heaven Allows, Psycho), foreign artfilms (Yojimbo, Solaris, Le Samourai), cult movies (Gun Crazy, Planet of the Apes, Dawn of the Dead), and television properties (Batman, The Addams Family, Charlie's Angels).
