No Exit by Jean-Paul Sartre : the play and its film adaptations

Our master's thesis is an interdisciplinary study on the play No Exit by Jean-Paul Sartre and its film adaptations - the French one directed by Jacqueline Audrey in 1954, and the English one directed by Philip Saville in 1964. The work is divided into two parts - literary and cinematographic analysis. In the first part we will focus on the play No Exit in the historical, cultural and philosophical context, find its role among the other literary texts of Sartre and study in more detail the text itself - its form, main motifs, etc. In the second part we will analyze its cinematographic potential. Comparing the two adaptations with each other and with the play, we will start with the general characteristics and then move on to the comparative analysis of two chosen episodes
