Textul de pe ultima copertă
Bleak
Houseis
one
of
Charles
Dickens's
darker
works:
a
vision
of
London
as
the
polluted,
diseased
heart
of
an
industrialising
nation.
This
great
novel
of
inheritance,
corruption
and
mystery,
published
in
the
serial
form
now
associated
with
television
drama,
was
also
one
of
the
first
successful
detective
stories.
In
2005,
the
BBC
announced
a
major
new
adaptation,
scripted
by
Andrew
Davies,
produced
by
double-BAFTA
winner
Nigel
Stafford-Clark,
and
starring
Gillian
Anderson
as
Lady
Dedlock.
Broadcast over eight hours in fifteen episodes, thisBleak House, in an appeal to youthful audiences, controversially combined the suspense of soap opera with visual innovation, careful attention to period detail, and outstanding performances.
Christine Geraghty's revealing study traces the double narrative in which the youthful protagonists grow into adulthood while the doomed Lady Dedlock is hunted to death in a tele-noir adaptation of the British novel's first detective story. She examines how the different styles of acting relate to Dickens's own vivid characterisation, taking issue with Davies's attitude to Dickens's most complex heroine, Esther Summerson. She explores the series' settings, including a London styled as a soap-opera set, and the great country houses where secrets are kept under wrap. And, using illustrations from the novel, she looks at how the traditional Dickensian 'pictures' were innovatively combined with HD visuals to powerful effect.
This fascinating study strongly makes the case for the contemporary BBC adaptation ofBleak Houseas a true television classic.
