Ichabod Crane: The Man and the Movie

Washington Irving's "Sleeping Beauty Legend" is a wonderful short story combining action, superstition, and little humor. The story of Headless Night has been afraid of Sleepy Hollow children for many years. Then there was Hollywood, and I decided that Washington Irving's "Sleeping Hollow Legend" was more necessary. Hollywood needs a more exciting hero and a story of Ichabod Crane to appeal in the 20th century. For Washington Irving, there was a reader who could imagine how the Icabold crane and how it surprised him, but Hollywood can do a great writing with his Johnny Depp.

But what about Ichabod Crane? There is a real Icabod Crane which is a soldier - Marines and army officers - Washington Owen's War at the port of Saket in 1812, encountered a real crane in 1814 In Paik Fort, his name I was inspired by the personality. But soldiers are not like school teachers with the same name. However, the behavior and behavior of Ichabod Crane is said to have gained hints from friends of Owen from New York State Kinderhook. Teacher Jesse Merwin originally came from Connecticut and moved to Kinderhook to teach later. Unlike major cranes, Mr. Mulwyn is proud of his relationship to the story.

Ichabod Crane is the most important person among short stories and the whole movie, but the interpretation of these two roles is very different. One obvious contrast is Ichabod's career. He is a teacher in the town in the book. Ikabod in the movie is a detective who visits Sleepy Hollow to solve the mystery of an unknown knight. The level of respect of Ikabod is also different in the story. As a teacher, the town regards him as an outstanding person, and citizens of the movie do not have high confidence in him.

The television movie "The Sleeping Hollow Legend" produced in 1980 was taken at NBC, Utah. It is starred by James L. Conway and Executive Producer Charles Serie produces Henning Scherp and Jeff Goldblum directed by Ikhabod Crane. In this version, the story of Ika Bolt arrived at the end of Katrina 's house, an unknown knight dealt with a cheat and returned to the dark forest. Ed Begley, a small portrayal of Icabold Crane, was adapted by Ed Griers, starring in Beverly, by Shelly Duval's high story and legend by Lan O'Kun in 1985. De Angelo Katrina, director of West Brom, talker of Charles Denan, Dov van Tassel, Katrina. This version explicitly treats Brom as a headless knight chasing Ichabod, but it is also added to the night twist ending after Halloween.
