I'd like to begin thinking about "underground" film and the possibilities open for a non-Hollywood screenplay in terms of adaptation. What is the most "underground" film that you've seen and what about it qualifies it as "underground"? Another term to think about is "transgression." Are the novels we are reading "transgressive," and are the films based on them also?
Here are some links to give you some impression of what I mean:
