N2  - This paper will take a close look on both the original story and its subsequent adaptation concerning changes in the plot, settings and the themes that differ from the original. To start off, the question of what a literary adaptation is will be discussed. The conclusion at the end of the paper will answer the question if Truffaut’s adaptation is an extension of the story, meaning an original film with a literary base, or rather a literary adaptation, confined to the set – up of the original story.
