NO specific formatting is needed. Please no citations. It is an informal paper.“Adaptation is the art form of democracy.”Deborah Cartmell, A Companion to Literature, Film, and AdaptationBy calling it “the art form of democracy,” Cartmell suggests that adaptation is broadly accessible and can be used by many different people to many different ends. The concept of adaptation can be applied in art forms like film or music as well as in business, science, engineering, psychology, and other fields. It is not unique to humans; a variety of organisms, objects, entities, and systems also exhibit adaptation.Choose one specific example of adaptation to examine as a case study.

In his online review of the film for slate.com, Stephen Metcalf presents a devastating review of The Searchers:
The Searchers, John Fords epic 1956 Western, is a film geeks paradise: It is preposterous in its plotting, spasmodic in its pacing, unfunny in its hijinks, bipolar in its politics, alternately sodden and convulsive in its acting, not to mention boring. Impossible to enjoy, and yet not as obviously medicinal as, say, The Spirit of the Beehive, The Searchers segregates the initiated from the uninitiated; and so it is widely considered, by the initiated, at least, to be among the four or five best movies of all time. At his maiden screening, a young Cahiers du Cinema critic named Jean-Luc Godard wept, later adding, How can I hate John Wayne … and yet love him tenderly … in the last reel of The Searchers? Martin Scorsese and Paul Schrader routinely name The Searchers as one of their favorite films, adding, I see it once or even twice a year (Scorsese), or, I make sure to see The Searchers at least once a year (Schrader), though such encomia have the curious effect of making the movie sound dutiful and unpleasant, like a prostate exam. Maybe the analogy isnt so outlandish as it seems.
Why do you agree or disagree with Metcalfs criticism of The Searchers?

David Nolan\’s movie was the first that got me thinking about the film beyond the images. I am particularly interested in his movie, Memento. This movie cuts the time line into pieces, disorganize and regroup them all together. The time line seems like a chaos, and we are as confused as the main character, trying to figure out what is the correct order of time.I found the montage Nolan used in Memento is really interesting compared and contrast with the organic and dialectic montage that Deleuze believed. I will discuss in detail about the similarities and differences of these two believes of montage.———————————————————————————above is the topic I chose, I also attached the paper outline and the pdf from the book that need to compare with.no pictures needed
