- W4384702425 abstract "In Kazuo Ishiguro’s novel The Remains of the Day (1989), the entire story is narrated in the first person by the butler, Mr. Stevens. His account of events often appears to be faulty, biased, or distorted. Mr. Stevens is arguably an unreliable narrator who conceals everything, including his own relationship with the former housekeeper Kenton and his former employer’s dubious associations with the Nazis. These hidden truths create a tension between what the reader is told and what they can only speculate about in Ishiguro’s work. This study aims to explore whether the film adaptation, also titled The Remains of the Day (1993), effectively conveys this tension to the audience. Specifically, the focus is on examining any shifts in unreliable narration resulting from the transition from novel to film. Using the adaptation shift model, this study identifies changes in plot structure, narrative techniques, and character portrayal. Regarding the plot, the dominance of Mr. Stevens over the camera lens, which mimics his point of view, is less prominent in the film, indicating a loss of control over the narrative. In terms of narrative techniques, the film adaptation employs flashbacks, point-of-view shots, and reverse shots to convey the first-person perspective. However, the mise-en-scène makes the truth more explicit, failing to conceal it from the audience. Lastly, Mr. Stevens is depicted as an even more tragic figure who comes to realize the emptiness of his life. The adaptation transforms characters who may appear inhumane in prose into more humane figures on screen. The significance of this article is that it demonstrates the intersection of adaptation studies and translation studies, and the potential for interdisciplinary research, by suggesting that the multilayered aspects of novel-to-film adaptations can be analyzed with greater sophistication and precision by adopting the methodology of descriptive translation studies." @default.
