Research Interests Summary:

My main interests in film studies lie in adaptation, and the manifestation of post- & pre-war anxieties in films. Films are a product of their times, and say a great deal about the people, place, and cultures that made them. I plan to look at a particular era of films (adaptations), and through a comparison of them to their respective novels, really explore their differences through the lens of post- and/or pre-war.
