DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Luchino Visconti Italy

His sweeping literary adaptations including 'The Leopard' and 'Death in Venice' transform great novels into visual meditations on cultural decay and the preservation of artistic heritage.

 Keenen Ivory Wayans United States

His Merchant-Ivory collaborations with E.M. Forster's works and other literary sources demonstrate how cinema can honor and extend the intellectual and emotional resonance of written fiction.
