Description - Splice: Volume 5, Issue 2 by John Atkinson

Volume 5 issue 2 of Splice discusses the thorny issue of film adaptations, covering the ground from a comparison of the various versions Alice in Wonderland to Fight Club and how it achieved its cult status with audiences. The phenomena of The Lord of the Rings and Twilight are explored with particular reference to the part fans of the books played in their adaptation to the screen. Tom Ford's version of Christopher Isherwood's A Single Man is considered in relation to what constitutes "adaptation" and questions whether fidelity to the source text is important or even desirable.
