Movie adaptations of literary properties often take wild liberties with their source material, often to the point where little of the original remains recognizable. The Tim Burton version of Washington Irving’s The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is a prime example, though what it loses in permissiveness, it makes up in creativity. Imagine, if you will, Irving as if written by Edgar Allan Poe, illustrated by Charles Addams and Edward Gorey, and then filmed by Terence Fisher, and you’ll get a sense of where this revisionary text ended up.
