  • When Good Mothers Go Bad: Genre and Gender in the Babadook
    Irish Journal of Gothic and Horror Studies 15 (Autumn 2016) When Good Mothers Go Bad: Genre and Gender in The Babadook Paula Quigley David Ehrlich: There are a number of films about grief, but part of what makes The Babadook so interesting is that the horror genre allows it to have this element of audience interaction. I wonder if you’re attracted to the horror genre because of how palpable it encourages you to make a story? Jennifer Kent: I think so. Can you imagine this story as a domestic drama? It would be so melodramatic and stupid. I like films where I’m forced to feel something. –Interview with Jennifer Kent, December 20141 For a film that has been described as ‘startlingly original’ and widely celebrated for its ‘emotional realism’, Jennifer Kent’s The Babadook (2014) is in many ways very generic.2 While this might seem like a shortcoming, on the contrary, the film’s restaging of familiar generic tropes facilitates a highly effective cinematic experience. This article considers the ways in which The Babadook repurposes the horror film to produce a moving exploration of maternal ambivalence, mobilising elements of the maternal melodrama and female gothic in the process. In so doing, the film foregrounds issues of genre and gender that inhere and overlap in these categories. In particular, the film’s focus on the protagonist’s conflicted experience of motherhood explores what Molly Haskell identifies as the great unspoken of the ‘woman’s film’, namely, women’s guilt for their ‘inadmissible feelings’ about motherhood.3 Considering the film in this light draws on Sue Thornham’s reading of We Need To Talk About Kevin (dir.

    MACBETH PRODUCTION NOTES For UK Publicity Enquiries: [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] For International Publicity Enquiries: [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Stills can be downloaded from: studiocanal.co.uk/press SHORT SYNOPSIS MACBETH is the story of a fearless warrior and inspiring leader brought low by ambition and desire. A thrilling interpretation of the dramatic realities of the times and a reimagining of what wartime must have been like for one of Shakespeare’s most famous and compelling characters, a story of all-consuming passion and ambition, set in war torn Scottish landscape. SYNOPSIS Ellon. Scotland. Following a fierce battle in which Macbeth, Thane of Glamis and loyal general of King Duncan’s forces, has finally killed Macdonwald, a traitor and leader of rebel forces, he and fellow soldier Banquo encounter three women scavenging among the fallen soldiers, who foretell that Macbeth will become Thane of Cawdor and King of Scotland, while Banquo will be the father of future kings. Both men are unnerved by the prophecies but for the moment appear not to believe them. At the battlefield campsite, Angus and Rosse arrive from the King’s court to pass on thanks from their royal master for the success in battle and to bestow Macbeth the title Thane of Cawdor. The previous holder of the title has been killed for treachery against the crown. When Macbeth goes to pay homage to the King, Duncan tells him that he has made arrangements to visit his home at Inverness to celebrate the victory.
