House of Spirits/Book v. Film
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page essay that contrasts and compares Isabelle Allende's book to the 1993 film adaptation. The House of Spirits was the first novel written by the renowned author Isabel Allende. It became a bestseller, winning Allende international attention and numerous awards. The book is, in a word, exemplary. Critical consensus on the film version (1993, directed by Billy August and released by Miramax) is much more mixed. Comparisons between the book and movie suggest that this is largely due to the enormous breadth and complexity of Allende's novel, which is difficult to successfully dramatize within the limited scope of two hour film. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
