N2  - Consideringthe very common assumption that reading is a much more demanding process thanwatching a literature-based film, adapting novels, short stories, and playsinto films has been a debatable issue for years. It is apparent that both thereader and the audience are involved in a complicated relationship betweentexts and films which are the most significant means to familiarize theaudience with literary masterpieces. Filmmakers are regarded as free artists whoare able to make alterations in the texts while translating or adapting theminto screen to reflect their distinctive methods and approaches, thus to createprofound effects on the viewers. Clearly it is to be admitted that bothliterary forms and cinematic forms share certain similarities and differences aswell. The objective of this study is to explore this complex relationshipbetween literature and literature-based films, by providing a critical analysisof the interdisciplinary, and intertextual nature of both forms and dwelling onthe differences between translating and adapting, with reference to one of themost popular literature based films, MobyDick.
