This work explores the many ways in which the developing film industry of the early twentieth century influenced the writings of F. Scott Fitzgerald, focusing specifically on his novels This Side of Paradise, The Great Gatsby, Tender Is the Night, and the incomplete The Last Tycoon. The Beautiful and the Damned is also discussed briefly. Early chapters examine Fitzgerald's literary adaptation of visual film techniques (pans, freeze frames, slow motion) and aural cinematic concepts (sound effects, diegetic sound) within his most popular novels. The final chapter summarizes the effect such techniques had in augmenting and defining Fitzgerald's unique literary style.

The Cinematic Vision of F. Scott Fitzgerald
Author: Wheeler W. Dixon
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
In this brief treatment of F.Scott Fitzgerald's last years as a screen writer (1937-40), Dixon suggests that Fitzgerald's screen work, including Three Comrades for which he received his only screen credit, represent a hitherto unrecognized artistic development. By analyzing the screen plays, and Fitzgerald's last three novels, Dixon shows how the novelist mastered the peculiar "grammar" and technique of film, and how they influenced his final, uncompleted novel, the Last Tycoon. With its opening biographical sketch, its linking of fiction and cinematic work, and its overview of this period in Fitzgerald's life, Dixon provides a useful and accessible tool for studying American film and literature. ISBN 0-8357-1701-1 : $44.95.

The Great Gatsby: A Graphic Novel Adaptation
Author: F. Scott Fitzgerald
Publisher: Candlewick Press
ISBN: 1536216186
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
A sumptuously illustrated adaptation casts the powerful imagery of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s great American novel in a vivid new format. From the green light across the bay to the billboard with spectacled eyes, F. Scott Fitzgerald’s 1925 American masterpiece roars to life in K. Woodman-Maynard’s exquisite graphic novel—among the first adaptations of the book in this genre. Painted in lush watercolors, the inventive interpretation emphasizes both the extravagance and mystery of the characters, as well as the fluidity of Nick Carraway’s unreliable narration. Excerpts from the original text wend through the illustrations, and imagery and metaphors are taken to literal, and often whimsical, extremes, such as when a beautiful partygoer blooms into an orchid and Daisy Buchanan pushes Gatsby across the sky on a cloud. This faithful yet modern adaptation will appeal to fans with deep knowledge of the classic, while the graphic novel format makes it an ideal teaching tool to engage students. With its timeless critique of class, power, and obsession, The Great Gatsby Graphic Novel captures the energy of an era and the enduring resonance of one of the world’s most beloved books.
