Agatha Christie on Screen Zusammenfassung

Agatha Christie on Screen Mark Aldridge

This book is a comprehensive exploration of 90 years of film and television adaptations of the world's best-selling novelist's work. Drawing on extensive archival material, it offers new information regarding both the well-known and forgotten screen adaptations of Agatha Christie's stories, including unmade and rare adaptations, some of which have been unseen for more than half a century. This history offers intriguing insights into the discussions and debates that surrounded many of these screen projects - something that is brought to life through previously unpublished correspondence from Christie herself and a new wide-ranging interview with her grandson, Mathew Prichard. Agatha Christie on Screen takes the reader on a journey from little known silent film adaptations, through to famous screen productions including 1974's Murder on the Orient Express, as well as the television series of the Poirot and Miss Marple stories and, most recently, the BBC's acclaimed version of And Then There Were None.

Agatha Christie on Screen Bewertungen

It is extremely well written and very accessible to readers, both academic and general. ... This book is special for two reasons. First, it is an excellent example of how to balance scholarship with accessibility for both academic and general readers. Aldridge's book is thoroughly enjoyable to read and comprehensive in its analysis. Secondly, Aldridge focuses on both film and television adaptations, proving successfully that one can analyse both media effectively in the same context. (Llewella Chapman, Historical Journal of Film, Radio and Television, Vol. 38 (1), 2018)

This has been a book I have been dipping into over the past few months and for anyone who is interested in film and TV adaptations of Agatha Christie's work then this is certainly the book to buy. It covers adaptations as early as 1928 and as late as the BBC's And Then There Were None adaptation in 2015 and it even has two chapters devoted to non-UK and USA adaptations. ... So overall I would recommend this book. (crossexaminingcrime, crossexaminingcrime.wordpress.com, March, 2017)
