Fiction Adaptation - Essay

I have managed to finish the essay! The feedback I received after Easter from Helen helped a lot. I went out and got two books: Literature and Film - A Guide to the Theory and Practice of Film Adaptation by Robert Stam and Alessandra Raengo, and, Literature through Film - Realism, Magic and the Art of Adaptation by Robert Stam.
Both have proved useful for quotes, as have, as usual, many websites with could papers on adaptation I have found. All I needed was to up my word count by a few hundred, structure it more soundly, and add in more quotes and there sources. I have managed to do that all over the past weeks and am very happy with the result. In the end I reached 2150 words, out of a 2000 to 2500 word limit. I am pleased with the result and hope it goes down well.
