Abstract: Through themes, every work conveys a message. A message or opinion conveyed by the author through character, plot, images, conversation, thought, conflict and other literary devices are known as thematic representation. Themes have implied rather than explicit meanings. Love, hatred, vengeance, war, and other recurring themes can be found in any work of art. These themes have a universal message for people of all races, genders, religions, languages, and cultures. The reader can understand the different themes in work because of the artistic depiction. Because of the limitations of the screenplay, the writer uses a selection process for themes when converting the novel into a film screenplay.
