Abstract: [cze] [eng]
Táto bakalárska teoretická práca sa zameriava na dve filmové adaptácie, ktoré vznikli na základe diela amerického žurnalistu H.S. Thompsona. Jedná sa o filmy Where the Buffalo Roam A. Linsona a Fear and Loathnig in Las Vegas T. Gilliama. Celom práce je porovnanie filmov na základe nekolkých kritérií - stavby, vizuálnej stránky, prácou s postavami, adď. Do úvahy je braný literárny štýl H. S. Thompsona, ktorého gonzo žurnalizmus sa pohybuje na pomedzí faktu a fikcie, zároveň je úzko prepojený s autorovým subjektívnym pohladom a jeho osobou. Cielom je tiež zhodnotenie úspešnosti užitých adaptačných postupov vzhladom k výběru a narábaniu s povodným textom, resp. textami a ich transformácie do filmovej formy. This thesis focuses on two film adaptations based on the literary work of the American journalist H. S. Thompson. The first one is Where the Buffalo Roam, directed by A. Linson and the second one is Fear an Loathing in Las Vegas, directed by Terry Gilliam. The goal of the thesis is comparison of two movies according to several criteria - dramatic and visual qualities, characters, ets. Also, the unique style of gonzo journalism, invented by the author, is taken into cosideration. It became well-known for its extreme subjectivity, close connection with autror´s life and blending fact with fiction. Another goal is to review how successful both directors were ai applying film methods on the chosen Thompson´s texts and in transforming them onto the film screen.
