Patterson 2011 All Rights Reserved iii IMAGE TO INFINITY: RETHINKING DESCRIPTION AND DETAIL IN THE CINEMA Alison L. Patterson, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2011 In the late 1980s, historian Hayden White suggested the possibility of forms of historical thought unique to filmed history. White proposed the study of “historiophoty,” an imagistic alternative to written history. Subsequently, much scholarly attention has been paid to the category of History Film. Yet popular concerns for historical re‐presentation and heritage have not fully addressed aesthetic effects of prior history films and emergent imagistic‐historiographic practices. This dissertation identifies and elaborates one such alternative historiographic practice on film, via inter‐medial study attending to British and American history films, an instance of multi‐platform digital historiography, and an animated film – a category of film often overlooked in history film studies.

Based on novels and short stories in English, Hindi-Urdu and Bengali that were published before 1947, these films examine the legacy of the Raj from the vantage point of an independent India. Kim (1950), NR Directed by Victor Saville Friday, May 4, 5:30–7:25 p.m. During the British Raj, the orphan (Dean Stockwell) of a British soldier poses as a Hindu and is torn between his loyalty to a Buddhist mystic (Errol Flynn) and aiding the English secret service. The film is based on the novel Kim by Rudyard Kipling, first published in book form in 1901. Shatranj Ke Khilari (The Chess Players) (1977), NR Directed by Satyajit Ray Friday, May 11, 5:30–7:40 p.m. In this movie set in 1856, shortly before the first Indian struggle for independence, Wajid Ali Shah is portrayed as an indifferent ruler who composes poems and listens to music, while British general James Outram (Sir Richard Attenborough) arrives on a secret mission to clear the way for the British. Meanwhile, two noblemen obsessively play endless games of chess, ignoring the situation that unfolds around them.

  • EMI & the Pre-Heritage Film
    EMI and the ‘Pre-heritage’ Period Film Claire Monk Abstract: First coined in the UK in the early 1990s as a new label for an ostensibly new, post-1979, kind and cycle of period cinema, the ‘heritage film’ is now firmly established as a widely used term and category in academic Film Studies. Although the heritage film’s defining features, ideological character and ontological coherence would remain debated, its status as a ‘new’ category hinges (self-evidently) on the presumption that the films of post-1979 culturally English heritage cinema marked a new departure and were clearly distinct from their pre-Thatcher-era precursors. Yet, paradoxically, the British period/costume films of the preceding decade, the 1970s, have attracted almost no scholarly attention, and none which connects them with the post-1979 British heritage film, nor the 1980s cultural and industry conditions said to have fostered the heritage film with those of the 1970s. This article pursues these questions through the prism of Britain’s largest film production and distribution entity throughout 1970-86, EMI, and EMI’s place as a significant, and sustained, but little- acknowledged force in British period film production throughout that time. In so doing, the article establishes the case for studying ‘pre-heritage’ period cinema. EMI’s period film output included early proto-heritage films but also ventured notably wider. This field of production is examined within the broader terrain of 1970s British and American period cinema and within wider 1970s UK cinema box-office patterns and cultural trends, attending to commercial logics as well as genre and the films’ positioning in relation to the later heritage film debates.
