A vividly realistic psychosexual drama, the film’s sharp emotional honesty heralds a distinct new voice from a promising young director. 7 Years opens with Maite ironing clothes, but for whom, and why with such tension? Hattu soon reveals that Maite’s husband Vincent (a brooding Bruno Todeschini) is in prison for an unspecified crime, and that she has promised to wait for him and attend to his laundry (if not his conjugal needs) during his incarceration. On one of her weekly visits, Maite meets Jean, an oddly inquisitive and boldly flirtatious (as only the French can be) prison warden, and soon the two commence a joyless affair.

    Kervan – International Journal of Afro-Asiatic Studies n. 21 (2017) Item Girls and Objects of Dreams: Why Indian Censors Agree to Bold Scenes in Bollywood Films Tatiana Szurlej The article presents the social background, which helped Bollywood film industry to develop the so-called “item numbers”, replace them by “dream sequences”, and come back to the “item number” formula again. The songs performed by the film vamp or the character, who takes no part in the story, the musical interludes, which replaced the first way to show on the screen all elements which are theoretically banned, and the guest appearances of film stars on the screen are a very clever ways to fight all the prohibitions imposed by Indian censors. Censors found that film censorship was necessary, because the film as a medium is much more popular than literature or theater, and therefore has an impact on all people. Indeed, the viewers perceive the screen story as the world around them, so it becomes easy for them to accept the screen reality and move it to everyday life. That’s why the movie, despite the fact that even the very process of its creation is much more conventional than, for example, the theater performance, seems to be much more “real” to the audience than any story shown on the stage. Therefore, despite the fact that one of the most dangerous elements on which Indian censorship seems to be extremely sensitive is eroticism, this is also the most desired part of cinema. Moreover, filmmakers, who are tightly constrained, need at the same time to provide pleasure to the audience to get the invested money back, so they invented various tricks by which they manage to bypass censorship.

  • Behind Film Performance in China's Changing Institutional Context
    Asia Pac J Manag DOI 10.1007/s10490-016-9501-0 Behind film performance in China’s changing institutional context: The impact of signals Caroline Elliott1 & Palitha Konara 2 & Haiyi Ling3 & Chengang Wang4 & Yingqi Wei 5 # The Author(s) 2017. This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract Grounded in signaling theory, this paper investigates the signals reflecting product quality, innovativeness, reputation and cultural background which influence film performance, that is, film survival (duration on cinema screen) and box office success, in China’s changing institutional context. This market has grown substantially and still possesses potential for further development. However, China’s unique institu- tional context presents challenges. By examining an expanded range of potential signals, two of which have not previously been examined in the literature, namely imported films and enhanced format film formats such as 3D and IMAX, we develop a conceptual framework and argue that signaling theory needs to be combined with institutional context. Similar to findings for film industries in other countries, we find quality and reputational signals including budget, star power, sequels, and online * Yingqi Wei [email protected] Caroline Elliott [email protected] Palitha Konara [email protected] Haiyi Ling [email protected] Chengang Wang [email protected] 1 Aston Business School, Aston University, Birmingham B4 7ET, UK 2 Business School, University of Huddersfield, Huddersfield HD1 3DH, UK 3 Foresea Life Insurance Co., Ltd., Shenzhen, China 4 School of Management, Bradford University, Bradford BD9 4JL, UK 5 Business School, Leeds University, Leeds LS2 9JT, UK Elliott C.
