把小说改编成电影的问题,在电影艺术的实践中具有重大的意义。许多作家都是从改编自己的长篇小说、中篇小说或舞台剧本而开始电影工作的。怎样把这些作品改编成影片呢?怎样把三五百页的长篇小说改编成八九十页的电影剧本呢?要知道,如果写成一百页,这已经就意味着,材料是太多了,有许多场面、情节、甚至人物都将不能放到影片中去。 The problem of adapting a novel into a movie is of great significance in the practice of cinema art. Many writers start their movie work by adapting their own novels, novella, or stage scripts. How to adapt these works into films? How can we adapt three or five hundred pages of novels to eighty-nine pages of screenplays? Know that if we write a hundred pages, this already means that we have too many materials, There are many scenes, plots, and even characters can not be put in the movie.
