Entre telas e as teclas: a obra Eu receberia as piores notícias dos seus lindos lábios, de Marçal Aquino, e sua adaptação cinematográfica

Abstract

The present work aimed to compare the novel "I would receive the worst news from your beautiful lips", published by Marçal Aquino in 2005, and the film of the same name, released in 2012, with a script written by the author of the book, in partnership with the Directors Beto Brant and Renato Ciasca. Initially, we start with studies by Antonio Cândido, Florencia Garramuño and Karl Erik Schollhammer on the realism in contemporary fiction, we discuss how these works respond to the "demand of the real", characteristic of the present time. In a second moment, we map how narratives put into dialogue, literature, photography and cinema, either by the profession of photographer of its protagonist, by the adaptation of the work to the screens or by the extremely visual language already present in the novel. Finally, a more detailed analysis of the solutions found for the filmmaking team, seeking to understand their motivations, highlighting the construction of the protagonist Cauby and a change from a narrative point of view from first to third person. All the work of comparison of the two works was based on concepts of adaptation (Linda Hutcheon), intermidiality (Adalberto Müller) and translation (Walter Benjamin)
