Summary/Abstract: This paper analyses the manner in which movie, as an audio-visual text, borrows codes from literature. Narratives from movies, as well as any other text, are always based on previous narratives. No new narrative can be created on a screen without using previous narratives. According to the author, mystic and mythological thoughts and ideas of East, especially symbols and concepts that can be found in poems Diwani Shems and Mathnawi by Rumi, are being considered in pretext of Big Fish movie, and before that in the Big Fish novel by Daniel Wallace on which Burton based his movie.
