  • Why Film Scholars Should Stop Worrying About Citizen Kane and Learn to Love Bad Films
    Dirty Movies, or: why film scholars should stop worrying about Citizen Kane and learn to love bad films Mike Chopra-Gant London Metropolitan University, UK Volume 7, Issue 2 (November 2010) Abstract This article presents an empirical case study of cinema exhibition at a small downtown cinema in an industrial city in the American midwest in the early 1940s. The case study is used to advance an argument that film scholars have too often based their selection of films for study on personal taste, and that film studies has thus evolved around a set of films that does not represent the films which ordinary moviegoers saw and enjoyed. The article argues for the need for film historians to pay greater attention to those films that demonstrably meant something to ordinary cinemagoers in order to produce a more reliable account of the cinema of the past. Keywords: Cinema, exhibition, audience, taste, canon, sex movies, popularity, moviegoing, film studies. In a lecture given in 1992, Colin MacCabe—borrowing an evocative phrase from Dante— spoke of the ‘eloquence of the vulgar [1].’ ‘Text and society are not separate categories’ argued MacCabe, ‘but ones which mutually illuminate each other’ [2], implicitly calling for an approach to the analysis of cultural ‘texts’ that pays attention to the most commonplace cultural texts and to the social contexts within which such ‘texts’ exist. While there are probably few scholars today working in film and cultural studies who would disagree strongly with this approach, it has more often than not been the case in practice that scholars have been drawn to the exemplary or exceptional in popular culture—auteur cinema, ‘quality’ Page 292 Volume 7, Issue 2 November 2010 television, cult movies etc.— leaving the most ‘vulgar’, mundane, everyday cultural forms and contexts relatively unexamined.
