Filmske adaptacije Šegrta Hlapića

Čudnovate zgode šegrta Hlapića prvi su puta objavljene davne 1913. godine. Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić nastojala je stvoriti lik koji će biti utjelovljenje i simbol dobrote. Njezino djelo je jedno je od rijetkih djela dječje književnosti koje ima nekoliko filmskih adaptacija. Prvi pokušaj, nažalost neostvaren, bio je 1965. kada su Ivan Brajdić i Zorislav Ugljen adaptirali roman u scenarij, a potom su uslijedili dugometražni animirani film Milana Blažekovića 1997. te dugometražni igrani film Silvija Petranovića 2013. Svaka od tih verzija ima svoja obilježja i specifične prilagodbe mediju u koji se djelo adaptira. Književno djelo obiluje mjestima neodređenosti koje medij filma mora ispuniti jer je riječ o vizualnoj umjetnosti, prije svega fizički izgled likova, stvari, odnosa između njih i slično. Animirani film je specifičan zbog antropomorfnih životinjskih likova. Današnje si generacije na spomen Hlapića odmah predočavaju miša, jer je Hlapić-miš postao brand i ne može proći neopaženo. Igrani film najbliže slijedi radnju romana, iako je radnja premještena u vrijeme između dva rata. Petranović je unio svoju viziju iako se trudio ostati što vjerniji predlošku. Najveći odmak od književnoga djela pronalazimo u neobjavljenom scenariju. Brajdić i Ugljen imali su svoju viziju prostora, likova i same radnje. Tko zna kakvu bismo percepciju Hlapića imali da je njihov scenarij doživio uspjeh.The Strange Adventures of Hlapich the Apprentice was first published in the year of 1913. Ivana Brlić-Mauranić tried her best to create a character that would be the embodiment of kindness. Her book is one of the rare works of child literature that has a couple of film adaptations. The first try of a movie adaptation, unfortunately unrealized, was in 1965. when Ivan Brajdić and Zorislav Ugljen adapted the novel into a script. The unrealized adaptation was followed by the two successful ones. The first one was an animated feature film by Milan Blažeković in 1997., followed by a feature film by Silvije Petranović in 2013. Every one of these versions has their characteristics and specific adjustments to the adapting media. This literary work abounds with vague places that the film must fulfill because it is a visual art, especially the physical appearance of the character, things, relations between them and so on. The animated film is specific because of anthropomorphic animal characters. Present day generations imagine a mouse at the mention of Hlapich, because Hlapich the mouse“ became a brand and it can't go unnoticed, On the other hand the feature film follows the action of the novel the closest, although the film takes the place between the two wars. Although he tried to stay true to the original book script, Petranović introduced his version to it. We can find the biggest digression from the literary work in the unpublished script. Brajdić and Ugljen had their vision of space, characters and the action of the movie. Who knows what kind of perception of Hlapich we would have today if their script had been realized
