  • Once Upon a Time … in Santa Clarita: Tarantino Movie Opens Thursday
    By: Caleb Lunetta, July 25, 2019 Once Upon a Time … In Santa Clarita: Tarantino movie opens Thursday Hollywood director Quentin Tarantino is known for his genre-defying blockbuster films that combine elements of art house, violence and comedy in his Academy Award-winning films. And the San Fernando Valley resident calls Santa Clarita “a special place,” according to local film property owners who have played host to the luminary for his latest film that debuts tonight, “Once Upon a Time … In Hollywood.” The latest installment in the Tarantino filmography follows the story of “a faded television actor and his stunt double (who) strive to achieve fame and success in the film industry during the final years of Hollywood’s Golden Age in 1969 Los Angeles,” according to IMDb.com. The film features Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie. Tarantino and movie fans were given a teaser trailer where the opening shot was that of Melody Ranch’s “Main Street” set. Veluzat said that the production team had been working with the studio for a couple months, from planning to setting up to filming, and for him, it was a special experience. Tarantino has filmed two of his last three movies at Melody Ranch in Newhall, according to studio manager Daniel Veluzat, and he’s praised the SCV in interviews and conversations with local residents. He really does like it here, said Veluzat, in reference to a question about why Tarantino has filmed his movies at Melody Ranch. “He calls it a special place,” he said. And on Thursday night, “Once Upon a Time” opens in theaters across the country, including the Santa Clarita Valley, featuring scenes shot at both Melody Ranch and the Saugus Speedway.

  • Living Entanglements and the Ecological Thought in the Works Of
    LIVING ENTANGLEMENTS AND THE ECOLOGICAL THOUGHT IN THE WORKS OF PAUL KINGSNORTH, TOM MCCARTHY, AND ALI SMITH By Garrett Joseph Peace James J. Arnett Andrew D. McCarthy Associate Professor of English Associate Professor of English (Chair) (Committee Member) Heather M. Palmer Associate Professor of English (Committee Member) LIVING ENTANGLEMENTS AND THE ECOLOGICAL THOUGHT IN THE WORKS OF PAUL KINGSNORTH, TOM MCCARTHY, AND ALI SMITH By Garrett Joseph Peace A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Master of Arts: English The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Chattanooga, Tennessee May 2021 ii ABSTRACT In my thesis, I use the work of Donna Haraway, Timothy Morton, Karen Barad, and Anna Tsing to explore how three contemporary British novelists—Paul Kingsnorth, Tom McCarthy, and Ali Smith—deal with the representational and ethical challenges of writing about nature and climate change within the Anthropocene. The question of how to live and write now is a prominent thread in all their works, which show, in both form and content, the entanglements of ecology, materiality, locality, nationality, and personal identity. In doing so, their stories enable readers to engage with what Morton calls the “ecological thought,” i.e. “a practice and process of becoming fully aware of how human beings are connected with other beings,” and provoke us, as Haraway puts it, “to be truly present . as mortal critters entwined in myriad unfinished configurations of places, times, matters, meanings.” iii DEDICATION For my parents, Robin and James. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS As many of the writers present in these pages show us, to be human is to exist in a state of interconnection.

  • Commercial Counterhistory: Remapping the Movement in Lee Daniels’ the Butler
    Journal of American Studies, (), , – © Cambridge University Press and British Association for American Studies doi:./S Commercial Counterhistory: Remapping the Movement in Lee Daniels’ The Butler LEIGH ANNE DUCK Lee Daniels’ The Butler () might seem an unlikely candidate for intervening in Hollywood’s civil rights genre, given both its nationalistic ending and its recuperation of iconic styles and images. This paper argues, however, that the film’s pastiche interrogates past cinematic tropes for race and space; in this sense, it proves counterhistorical, a term indicating not a lack of accuracy but a commitment to illuminating the role of visual media in shaping contemporary understandings of history and to encouraging fresh perspectives on the past. Examining the many forms of constraint produced by iconic images of black and gendered per- sonhood, the film also takes on the spatial icon with which many of these figures are associated – the southern plantation. Both exposing and challenging the ways in which spectacular accounts of southern racism occlude the geographic and political reach of African American movements against oppression, the film inconsistently insists on the importance of thinking across conven- tional demarcations of space and time. At these moments, it suggests possibilities for how even commercial cinema might contribute to new conceptions of black political history and possibility. We were right on the border: ten miles from Memphis and a million miles from the rest of the world. FBI agent Rupert Anderson (played by Gene Hackman) on his previous career as a small-town sheriff in Mississippi Burning () While Mississippi Burning, Alan Parker’s action-packed account of an FBI investigation into the disappearance of three civil rights workers, was widely lauded for its technical achievements, it became notorious almost immediately upon release for “whitewashing” the fight for African American rights.

  • What Characters Learn and What They Never Will
    What characters learn and what they never will This session was written by Lucy for The Script Factory’s I © screenwriting course presented at BFI Southbank, June 2013. The teaching points in this lecture are mostly illustrated with reference to the following four films: Argo (dir. Ben Affleck, scr. Chris Terrio, 2012) Sightseers (dir. Ben Wheatley, scr. Alice Lowe & Steve Oram, 2012) Up in the Air (dir. Jason Reitman, scr. Jason Reitman & Sheldon Turner, 2009) Animal Kingdom (dir./scr. David Michod, 2010) Screenwriting lore dictates that characters should learn life-improving lessons through their experiences. Pardon our French, but that’s bullsh*t! In many films the external challenges the character faces are so great that it’s imperative that they are equipped with the necessary attributes to tackle those obstacles from the outset. In other movies the characters remain obstinate despite what life throws at them and their inability to change is exactly what the film is about. This session examines how to chart convincing character journeys and, if your character does need to overcome a flawed attitude to life, how to ensure that the difference in whom they are at the beginning and end of the film is clearly marked. By far the most vital way that an audience literally gets on board with what’s at stake in a story is through the characters. This is because we generally go to see films in order to have an emotional experience. There are probably exceptions but, on the whole, we don’t buy tickets because we want to be educated, we are not hoping to improve our minds or learn a lesson – we are going to the cinema to have a vicarious experience through watching characters do stuff.
