Adapted for the Screen: The Cultural Politics of Modern Chinese Fiction and Film is a 2010 non-fiction book by Hsiu-Chuang Deppman, published by University of Hawaii Press. The book discusses seven Chinese short stories and novels adapted into films and their respective films. Xiao Jiwei of Fairfield University described six of the films documented as being "canonical" as they became key parts of Chinese film curricula at American universities and had won film awards. Xiao argued that the book "may be better read as a collection of essays than as a book with a central theme and method."

Xiao argued that the book "may be better read as a collection of essays than as a book with a central theme and method." The author disagrees with the idea that the primary way to judge a film adaptation of a work is to see how faithful it is to the original work it is based on. (en)
