Which film adaptation of a foreign novel had not been successful before?

The most successful film adaptation of Jin Yong's work should be The New Condor Heroes, which was released in 1994. The movie was directed by Hong Kong director Huang Rihua, and Jin Yong personally acted as the screenwriter, Andy Liu, Xiao Longnu, and Zhou Yong. The film was based on Jin Yong's martial arts novel of the same name, which told the story of Guo Jing and Huang Rong's love story and their grievances with the Mongolian prince Yang Guo. The film received widespread praise after its release. Not only did it achieve huge box office success in Hong Kong and Mainland China, but it also won the praise of many film critics. The role of Yang Guo by Andy Liu was considered one of his masterpieces, and the image of Xiao Longnu became one of the classic female characters. The film's special effects and costumes were also highly praised by the audience and critics. Other than " The New Return of the Condor Heroes," Jin Yong's successful film adaptation also included " The Deer and the Cauldron,"" The Eight Dragons and Dragons,"" The Smiling Proud Wanderer," and so on. These films were not only successful in terms of box office sales and reputation, but they also won the love and recognition of a wide range of readers and audiences.

A really successful one is 'The Hunger Games'. The film was able to translate the post - apocalyptic world, the intense action, and the themes of survival and rebellion from the novel. 'Jurassic Park' is also a great example. It took the exciting concept of dinosaurs coming back to life from the novel and made it into a blockbuster movie. 'The Great Gatsby' had a beautiful film adaptation that captured the glamour, the love, and the disillusionment described in the novel.

It was difficult to give a definite answer to this question because every novel had its own unique style and theme, and different film and television adaptation would also be different because of different production teams, directors, actors and other factors. However, there were some successful examples of novels being adapted into movies and TV series: 1 " Battle Through the Heavens ": This novel was a fantasy novel written by Tian Can Tudou. It was adapted into a popular online drama with Li Yifeng, Chen Weiting and others as the main actors. It received high reviews and box office earnings. 2 Grave Robber's Chronicles: This novel was written by Nanpai's third uncle and was adapted into a popular movie and TV series.

As a result, the above novels had achieved relatively successful results when they were adapted into films and television dramas. Different works would have different evaluations and reputations in the hearts of different audiences.

Well, a good story is key for both. Also, strong characters and an engaging plot are usually common.

It depends on various factors. Some think it was great, while others have different opinions.

I recommend "The Legend of Heroes and Beauties" to you. The main character of this historical fiction novel transmigrated to the historical world. With his own mind and wisdom, he successfully grasped power, obtained wealth, and even obtained the most beautiful woman in the world. The journey was smooth and without many twists and turns. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗

Whether the film adaptation would destroy the charm of the original novel was a subjective question because different people would have different views on the adapted film. However, some film adaptation would indeed affect the charm of the original novel. One of the situations that ruined the charm of the original novel was that it was not adapted properly. For example, the plot and character settings in the movie were very different from the original novel, causing the audience to be unable to fully immerse themselves in the movie's storyline. Perhaps the way the movie was described was different from the original novel, making it difficult for the audience to understand the profound meaning of the original novel. Another way to ruin the charm of the original novel was to over-adapt it. For example, the plot and character settings in the movie were too complicated, making it difficult for the audience to understand the plot. Perhaps the description in the movie was too gorgeous, making the audience feel that it was too long and lost the concise and clear characteristics of the original novel. Of course, not all film adaptation would ruin the charm of the original novel. Some film adaptation, especially those that respected the original novel plot and character setting, often made the audience more satisfied.
