December 27, 2004 No Folding for Now
I may reclassify some of these as the types of folding become better articulated.
___________
XXX
Regeneration (1915): a simple story only
XXX
The Phantom of Crestwood (1932): has minor folding of radio to film
XXX
The Thirteenth Guest (1932): has minor folding of the story to the portrayal of victims around a table
XXX
Any Old Port! (1932):
XXX
Shadow of the Thin Man (1941)
XXX
Song of the Thin Man (1947): though the writers clearly had in mind to fold the song into the story somehow
XXX
The Big Heat (1953)
XXX
On the Waterfront (1954) but has some folded acting
XXX
Ten Little Maidens (1985) but has a clever fold in the relationship of inside mystery to inside ejaculation
XXX
Peril at End House (1990): alas, no Christie in this production
XXX
Kite (1998): has minor folding in the story told to the girl
XXX
The Replacement Killers (1998)
XXX
Basil (1998): The original novel folded a story into a backstory, but the film drops all the hints.
XXX
Erotic Witch Project, The (1999): Based on highly folded "The Blair Witch Project."
XXX
The Triangle (2001): has minor folding in reference to the original murder that produced the ghost that haunts the reluctant visitors
XXX
Being Mick (2001): some slight fold in the notion of a performance about performing.
XXX
102 Dalmantions (2002): has minor folding in the machine that triumphs is similar to the mechanical story
XXX
Trapped (2002)
XXX
Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason (2004): some minor folding in that the narrative structure is a narrated movie of an annotative diary published as a book and which presumably reflects a life (or type of life). Also, there's a central scene where she has a phone conversation (leaves a message) with her boyfriend who is also ringing at the door.
XXX
Without a Paddle (2004): is supposed to be folded as it incorporates several films by inclusion. But it is so poorly done it doesn't work.
XXX
The Passion of the Christ (2004): has a controversial and unwitting folding between what they depict as how it _must_ have been and what the Bible says (and then what we know to be likely true).
XXX
Flight of the Phoenix (2004):
XXX
