SummaryMany feel that a film adaptation needs to be completely faithful to it original written format. “When viewing the film version of a novel or play they know, they want to find in the film what they valued in the literary work, without asking whether this is the sort of thing film can do” (McFarlane 165). Often film makers have to make changes to novels in order to tell a compelling story with a medium which is completely different from literature. This said, High Fidelity’s film adaptation is as close to a completely faithful transfer from literature to screen as can be found. Sadly, this faithfulness to the novel still has its opponents.
