how does the use of multimedia affect the portrayal of a literary work such as novel, play, or poem?

The use of multimedia affects the portray of a literary work by depicting differently.

Explanation:

The multimedia, including movies and theatres, have taken literary works to showcase the audiences. Media, especially film, have changed the relationship between reader and book as well as the literary reception of the text. The access to literature through media is becoming more common, that led to the pushing out of books. A film can reach all classes easily. Several books are used today for media adaptations with loosely fitting to novels as they become half-autonomous texts. Consequently, the film is necessarily shorter, thus its focus on the central parts of the story. Also, the number of characters can sometimes reduced because films concluded in not more than one and a half hours with a limited budget.

i think it's either 'to expose the corruption of the communists in russia', or 'to criticize animal brutality by communists in russia.'  

hope this ! : )
