Abstract

Vladimir Propp is a leading researcher and linguist who works in a variety of fields, from semiotics to folklore, from ethnology to linguistics. The Morphology of the Tale, on the other hand, is the work that has made him renowned today. In this work, Propp not only investigated Russian fairy tales and categorised them according to their structures but also devised a method that is a reference to many researchers in terms of narrative analysis and is still up-to-date today. With this method he developed, Propp made it possible to analyse the tales that are the product of oral tradition. Today, with the developments in the field of audio, visual and digital communication, literary works are intensively adapted to cinema. This study is shaped on whether a novel adapted to the cinema can also be analysed morphologically. Because in recent years, many well-known stories have been adapted into films with both traditional and modern views. In this context, the use of Propp's method, which consists of 31 functions and 7 action areas, developed for morphological analysis, for movie analysis constitutes the method of the study. The subject of the study is the examination of the movie Being There, which is adapted from a novel with Propp's morphological analysis method. When the data obtained are evaluated, it is seen that the function and action areas in Propp's morphological analysis method are included in the movie Being There. The most important criterion stated by Propp in his method is that these functions and actions must take place in a sequence of events. In the movie Being There, the order of functions and actions is jumbled. Therefore, the functions and actions in the film do not meet the expectations for the method.
