To fully analyse the success of this transformation one must consider the various ways in which the themes, values and voices have been transformed and the effect that context and medium and introduction of new ideas and themes has had on this transformation.

Amy Heckerling’s adaptation of Jane Austen’s “Emma” has transformed a 19th century classic English novel into a teen flick romcom film of the 20th century entitled “Clueless”. Despite the vastly different historical settings and societal values of the two texts, Amy Heckerling’s “Clueless” still retains the essential values of the original text by adapting these values into a modern society of our time and a modern audience of our age. Comparatively through the themes of class and social structure and the attitudes towards love and marriage, a greater insight can be gained of the context in which it appropriates further enhanced by the use of satire and irony employed by both composers. “Emma” by Jane Austen was written in the Regency period of the 1800s; a time of inequality as it featured a wide gap between the rich and the poor while at the same time a rise in the merchant middle class. In response to this context, Austen tends to satirise the common source of power by creating a microcosmic world of a genteel community evolving round a “handsome, clever and rich” young woman who "seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence."
Pinera, Vera Lorenza Angelica M. Pinera Nov. 22, 2013 COM 115.5 Film Seminar: European Film A Reflection on Babette’s Feast I grew up watching the ever glorious Hollywood films and also Filipino movies which are almost always based on some American storyline. Despite their differences in terms of genres and storylines, several commonalities can be observed in such films – problems are always resolved, background music and special effects are always a must, and of course unrealistic, highly predictable plots.

My high regard for American films may have been the reason for my limited interest for other foreign produced films including those from the European Cinema. Not that I haven’t seen one, it’s just that I always thought those kinds of films were too serious, too quiet, and simply put, too boring.
