Transnational Film Remakes

Offering a variety of case studies in which films have been remade across national borders, Transnational Film Remakes provides an analysis of cinematic remaking that moves beyond Hollywood to address the truly global nature of this phenomenon. From Hong Kong remakes of Japanese cinema to Bollywood remakes of Australian television, this book interrogates the fluid and dynamic ways in which texts are adapted and reworked across national borders to provide a distinctive new model for understanding these global cultural borrowings.
