Description
A. E. Hotchner, author of the celebrated memoir Papa Hemingway, did not come to the task of adapting Ernest Hemingway's short story "After the Storm" with apparent disadvantages. He had already adapted for the television or movie screen sixteen works by the Nobel Prize-winning writer, including For Whom the Bell Tolls, but, as Hotchner's illuminative essay on the matter of adaptation shows, familiarity with the original artist's work or personality does not neccessarily simplify the challenge to the adapter or by any means guarantee success.
While Hotchner's incisive commentary identifies the problems posed generally by film adaptations of works not written for the screen and particularly by Hemingway's seven-page "After the Storm," the complete texts in this volume of both the original short story and then screenplay for the full-length feature film (starring Armand Assante) provide a perfect example of the adaptation process Hotchner so lucidly describes.
