Fidelity is important to understand how literary text is important. The theory is misguided by comparing the mediums. Whereas post fidelity critics allow us to investigate a film by its own unique qualities and efforts thereby allowing us to explore reinvisionings and authorial creativity.

There are different ways of film adaptations. Lets stress upon the different kinds of film adaptations in the recent past. 'The Lord of The Rings' a famous novel by J. R. R. Tolkien, was taken to the big screen by Peter Jackson, for the first time in the year 2001. It was a literal adaptation of the novel. on the other hand, Tim Burton, did the adaptation of 'Alice in Wonderland' (one of the most famous novels by Lewis Carroll), in his own way. He brought newness to the story by his creativity as an artist, yet he managed to keep the classic nature of the story. The little changes in characters and the twists in the story attracts the attention of the viewers. As mentioned earlier in the blog, Brian McFarlane identifies, although we shouldn't compare these two adaptation sources when presented in different mediums, it is important to recognize the activities of the audience and the pleasures expected thereof.
