Abstract

From the initial days of cinema, adaptation has been an omnipresent procedure of filmmaking. According to what Hutcheon has stated in her book, A Theory of adaptation, adaptation theory refers to the methodical analysis of films which have been produced based on literary sources. In fact, movie adaptations have a history as long as the history of cinema itself and are becoming more prevalent all over the world. This study aims to provide a brief account of this theory and its main academics. In addition, this paper intends to argue the reason of classic novels’ popularity with the movie producers. It can be concluded that unlike the hostility which the adaptations would encounter during this field’s commencement time, now they are approved of by many critics as original productions, and this is the reason of their upward acceptance by many directors.
