Abstract
“From Extolling History to Celebrating Folk Customs: Narrative Transformation and the Use of Film Scores in the Third World Film Red Sorghum,” adopts a Third World feminist perspective to investigate changes in the narrative patterns used in the original novel and the film with the same title adapted from the novel. In addition, this study explores the purpose of such changes and how film scores are used in the film to enhance desired effects. By introducing the historical context of the novel, this study intends to explain how the features of these film scores influence the film. Furthermore, how film scores are employed to present the characters’ personalities and increase the weight and affect of crucial events in the film is investigated.
