Annotation "Although feature film adaptations of Canadian plays have become increasingly common in the past decade, the practice of turning drama into film began in Canada in 1942 when Hilda Hooke Smith's Here Will I Nest was brought to the screen. Over the years some adaptations have enjoyed a fair measure of success while others have fallen into oblivion, but virtually all of them have engaged with their theatrical origins, often leading to criticism that they remain too rigidly anchored to the stage. Stage-Bound, the first extensive study of Canadian and Quebecois drama, challenges this reductive interpretation. Andre Loiselle demonstrates that theatricality is central to the meaning of these films, and in the process reclaims them."--BOOK JACKET. Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
