This transfer can involve adapting most details of the source text closely, including characters or plot points, or the original source can serve as loose inspiration, with the implementation of only a few details.

In contrast to when making a remake, movie directors usually take more creative liberties when c ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
