This thesis entitled "The cinematic vision in E. Hemingway's The Killers, H. James's Daisy Miller, F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby: A comparative study between narrative prose fiction and narrative film fiction through the hermeneutic approach," attempts to shed light on comparing arts to each other, particularly the relationship between the written narrative prose fiction and the visual narrative film fiction. It therefore makes use of the hermeneutic art as a means for understanding the film versions of the selected works as an act of interpretation. In view of that, studying the examples of the adaptations to the selected literary narratives help students to interpretively practice comprehension skills by comparing and contrasting the movie to the novel for understanding the meaning and the truth of this novel. Accordingly, the main intention of the present study in adopting this interpretive comparative approach is to support the idea that narrative prose fiction and narrative film fiction are complementary to each other and film study in turn could and should be a vital component in studying literature.
