Abstract

Taking as a touchstone A. L. Kennedy's observation about the disproportionate impact of the short story compared to its size, this article explores the extent to which David Von Ancken's adaptation of Tobias Wolff's text finds, via montage and perspective, a cinematic analogue to the aesthetic form of the short story.
