of Luigi and Angelo remain in Pudd'nhead Wilson, as twins with separate bodies. Twain was not thorough in his separation of the twins, and there are hints in the final version of their conjoined origin, such as the fact that they were their parents' "only child", they sleep together, they play piano together, and they had an early career as sideshow performers. "Those Extraordinary Twins" was published as a short story, with glosses inserted into the text where the narrative was either unfinished or would have duplicated parts of Pudd'nhead Wilson. Reception F R Leavis was influential in his reassessment of the novel. In other media Theatre Frank M. Mayo produced a theatrical adaptation in 1895 and played Wilson. Film A film in 1916 and a TV movie in 1984 were based on the book. Homages In The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. (1993), an episode ("Brisco for the Defense") is loosely based on the novel. The novel is featured in this episode as the inspiration for the final twist. However, the episode takes place in 1893, a year before the book was published in the novel form.
