was just wondering if anyone could give an opinion on this question; "Hardy's narrative technique has often been described as cinematic. What evidence is there in Tess of the d'urbervilles to support or to challenge this analogy? Would just like to know how people interpret this question. thanks:idea:
I would support that.
He writes very pictorial, describes the scene before he moves in on the characters. He writes in scenes, pieces put together.
Other than that, Hardy himself comments on the feelings and situation of his characters from his own perspective, so that is something that does not belong to cinema, or at least not directly (if that is wished for, it needs to be shown in the whole picture: how it is filmed, what impression it gives).
Is that a start?
