High school senior Addison Schacht is taking the prompt for his college entry essay to the University of Chicago to heart: What are your best and worst qualities? He begins to look back on his life so far and considers what getting into college, selling some pot to his classmates, his relationship with his best friend—not girlfriend—Digger, Virgil’s Aeneid, and his growing obsession with the murder of a classmate, Kevin Broadus, all mean. The more he digs into his own past, the farther he stumbles into the middle of the murder investigation. Filled with classic adolescent reflection and an intriguing mystery, The November Criminals is “one of the funniest, most heartfelt novels in recent memory—a book every bit as worthy of Mark Twain and J.D. Salinger” (The Chicago Tribune).

You may not be familiar with Shailene Woodley’s name, but you’re sure to have seen her face, At only 23 years old, the young actress has been featured on the covers of young adult novels, on posters in department stores across America, and even in the form of an action figure. Despite her youth, she’s already been featured in a variety of different roles, including Divergent (2014) and its subsequent sequels as well as the film adaptation of The Fault in Our Stars (2014) by John Green. Ever since her breakthrough role on the hit ABC Family series The Secret Life of The American Teenager, there has been one defining characteristic that links her work. Back in the golden age of Hollywood, it wasn’t just a bonus for an actor to be able to sing and dance, it was expected. The very first films were silent, but technological advances soon allowed for widely released films to incorporate synchronized sound by the late 1920’s. Once actors’ voices could be dubbed into films, montages of musical numbers, dance routines, and comedic scenes that required poise, versatility, and a great degree of skill became popular. In order to be successful on a large scale, actors and actresses needed to be highly trained in all three performance arts, as leading roles required a soaring voice, an agile body, and the chops to act in both dramatic and comedic roles.

Download or read book The Scandal of Adaptation written by Thomas Leitch and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-04-21 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this volume seek to expose the scandals of adaptation. Some of them focus on specific adaptations that have been considered scandalous because they portray characters acting in ways that give scandal, because they are thought to betray the values enshrined in the texts they adapt, because their composition or reception raises scandalous possibilities those adapted texts had repressed, or because they challenge their audiences in ways those texts had never thought to do. Others consider more general questions arising from the proposition that all adaptation is a scandalous practice that confronts audiences with provocative questions about bowdlerizing, ethics, censorship, contagion, screenwriting, and history. The collection offers a challenge to the continued marginalization of adaptations and adaptation studies and an invitation to change their position by embracing rather than downplaying their ability to scandalize the institutions they affront.
