The screenplay proved irresistible to both the director and star, not just for the bravura of the action and the thrill of the suspense but for the moral conundrum the protagonist is faced with and the consequences it has on him, the passengers on the train and his family at home. “THE COMMUTER asks the audience, if someone asked you to do something that seems insignifi- cant but you’re not sure of the outcome in exchange for a considerable financial reward, would you do it?” says Jaume Collet-Serra. “That‘s the philosophical choice that our central character - a man of 60 who’s just been fired, has no savings and is mortgaged to the hilt - is faced with. Is he think- ing just about himself or is he going to take into consideration the possible moral consequences of what he’s asked to do? That’s the question we want the audience to ask themselves.” For Neeson, it was also the story’s real-time narrative that gives it a thrilling momentum.

Tim Burton’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: A Fairy Tale between Tradition and Subversion, sous la direction de Mehdi Achouche. - Lyon : Université Jean Moulin (Lyon 3), 2018.

Master 2 Recherche Etudes Anglophones Tim Burton’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: A Fairy Tale between Tradition and Subversion A dissertation presented by Joséphine Magnard Year 2017-2018 Under the supervision of Mehdi Achouche, Senior Lecturer ABSTRACT The aim of this Master’s dissertation is to study to what extent Tim Burton plays with the codes of the fairy tale genre in his adaptation of Roald Dahl’s children’s book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (1964). To that purpose, the characteristics of the fairy tale genre will be treated with a specific focus on morality. The analysis of specific themes that are part and parcel of the genre such as childhood, family and home will show that Tim Burton’s take on the tale challenges the fairy tale codes, providing its viewers with a more Tim Burtonesque, subversive approach where things are not as definable as they might seem.

    THE DENIAL OF RELEVANCE: BIOGRAPHY OF A QUEST(ION) AMIDST THE MIN(D)FIELDS—GROPING AND STUMBLING Marion Turner VanBebber, JD, MS, BS Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2014 APPROVED: Brian C. O’Connor, Major Professor James Duban, Committee Member Jodi L. Kearns, Committee Member Suliman Hawamdeh, Chair of the Department of Library and Information Science Herman Totten, Dean of the College of Information Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School VanBebber, Marion Turner. The Denial of Relevance: Biography of a Quest(ion) Amidst the Min(d)fields—Groping and Stumbling. Doctor of Philosophy (Information Science), August 2014, 251 pp., 15 figures, references, 226 titles. Early research on just why it might be the case that “the mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation” suggested that denial of relevance was a significant factor. Asking why denial of relevance would be significant and how it might be resolved began to raise issues of the very nature of questions. Pursuing the nature of questions, in light of denial of relevance and Thoreau’s “quiet desperation” provoked a journey of modeling questions and constructing a biography of the initial question of this research and its evolution. Engaging literature from philosophy, neuroscience, and retrieval then combined with deep interviews of successful lawyers to render a thick, biographical model of questioning.

  • Reel Forensic Experts: Forensic Psychiatrists As Portrayed on Screen
    ANALYSIS AND COMMENTARY Reel Forensic Experts: Forensic Psychiatrists as Portrayed on Screen Susan Hatters Friedman, MD, Cathleen A. Cerny, MD, Sherif Soliman, MD, and Sara G. West, MD The lay public is much more likely to have encountered a forensic psychiatrist on television or in the movies than to have encountered a real one. Thus, by way of popular culture, the jury’s perceptions and expectations of forensic expert witnesses may have been formed long before they take the stand. We describe a typology of five categories of forensic experts portrayed in fiction: Dr. Evil, The Professor, The Hired Gun, The Activist, and the Jack of All Trades. As art imitates life, these categories (aside from Dr. Evil) mirror real-life criticisms that have been made about forensic experts.
