- Title
Transformation of The Adventures of Tintin: The Secrets of the Unicorn into a Movie - A Comparative Analysis.
- Authors
R., Madeswaran; T., Kanimozhi
- Abstract
Comics provide feast not only to the mind but also to the curious eyes. By providing creative illustrations, the genre voluntarily opens the gates to a world of fantasy; it converts the abstract story into a concrete one. Visual literature, in fact, increases the level of comprehension among the learners of a new language. Transformation of comics into films is a growing trend. This paper compares the movie version of The Secrets of the Unicorn, from the famous comic series The Adventures of Tintin, with the original printed version and analyzes the merits and demerits of the conversion. The paper also explores the advantages of innovations and stresses the need for preserving the tradition.
