Film and Television Adaptions

In 1995, Bruce McDonald directed the film Dance Me Outside starring Ryan Black, Hugh Dillon, and Adam Beach, an adaption of the book by Kinsella. A year later in 1996, the television show The Rez was first aired which was also an adaption of the book by Kinsella.

Famous quotes containing the words film and/or television:

    “I’ll be right here.”
    —Melissa Mathison, U.S. screenwriter, and Steven Spielberg. ET, ET The Extra-Terrestrial, saying goodbye to Elliot as he touches Elliot’s forehead—ET’s final words in the film (1982)

    “The television screen, so unlike the movie screen, sharply reduced human beings, revealed them as small, trivial, flat, in two banal dimensions, drained of color. Wasn’t there something reassuring about it!—that human beings were in fact merely images of a kind registered in one another’s eyes and brains, phenomena composed of microscopic flickering dots like atoms. They were atoms—nothing more. A quick switch of the dial and they disappeared and who could lament the loss?”
    —Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)
