Providing new and challenging ways of understanding the medieval in
the modern and vice versa, The Medieval Motion Picture: The
Politics of Adaptation highlights how medieval aesthetic experience
breathes life into contemporary cinema. Engaging with the subject
of time and temporality, the essays examine the politics of
adaptation and our contemporary entanglement with the medieval: not
only in overtly medieval-themed films but also in such diverse
genres as thrillers, horror films, performance animation, and even
science fiction. Among the films and TV shows discussed are
productions such as HBO's award winning series Game of Thrones,
Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula, Akira Kurosawa's Ran,
and M. Night Shyamalan's The Sixth Sense.
