    Taboo : why are real-life British serial killers rarely represented on film?

Taboo: Why are Real-Life British Serial Killers Rarely Represented on Film? Antony Robert Earnshaw Sheffield Hallam University MA English by Research September 2017 1 Abstract This thesis assesses changing British attitudes to the dramatisation of crimes committed by domestic serial killers and highlights the dearth of films made in this country on this subject. It discusses the notion of taboos and, using empirical and historical research, illustrates how filmmakers’ attempts to initiate productions have been vetoed by social, cultural and political sensitivities. Comparisons are drawn between the prevalence of such product in the United States and its uncommonness in Britain, emphasising the issues around the importing of similar foreign material for exhibition on British cinema screens and the importance of geographic distance to notions of appropriateness. The influence of the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) is evaluated. This includes a focus on how a central BBFC policy – the so- called 30-year rule of refusing to classify dramatisations of ‘recent’ cases of factual crime – was scrapped and replaced with a case-by-case consideration that allowed for the accommodation of a specific film championing a message of tolerance.

  • Not Your Grandfather's Sherlock Holmes

    Not Your Grandfather's Sherlock Holmes

    d “nOt YOuR GRandFatHeR’S ­ SHeRlOCk HOlMeS”: ­ Guy Ritchie’s 21st Century Reboot of a ­ 19th Century british Icon ­ Ashley Liening Sherlock Holmes “has enjoyed the most vigorous afterlife of any fictional character” posits thomas leitch, adaptation scholar and author of Film Adaptation and Its Discontents (leitch 207). Indeed, a franchise has been built around Sir arthur Conan doyle’s quirky detective, so much so that Sherlock Holmes has become one of the most adapted literary figures of all time, outnumbered only by Frankenstein’s monster, tarzan, and dracula (207). Clare Parody asserts, “Franchise practice has produced and surrounded some of the highest grossing and best-known fictional texts, characters, plots, and worlds of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries,” and Sherlock Holmes is no exception (211). From 1900 till the present day, Sherlock Holmes has been portrayed by “nearly 100 actors, in over 200 films, from more than a dozen different countries,” and it does not appear like “Sir arthur Conan doyle’s violin- playing, pipe-smoking, cocaine-injecting sleuth” is going any- where anytime soon (Cook 31). In fact, the twenty-first century has experienced a resurgence in more “straightforward” Holmes adaptations, namely bbC’s Sherlock (2010), which aired in three ninety-minute episodes and portrays a tech-savvy twenty-first century Holmes, and Guy Ritchie’s 2009 and 2011 35 ­ big screen adaptations, the latter of which will be the focus of this essay. I aim to explore the ways in which Guy Ritchie’s Sher­ lock Holmes (2009) adaptation, while inextricably bound to Conan doyle’s storytelling franchise, diverges from its prede- cessors in that it is not an amalgamation of other Holmes adap- tations.

Und das nicht ohne Grund. Denn just als wir die aktuelle Ausgabe beenden wollten, gab es einen Überraschungsbesuch aus England. Duncan McGregor, seines Zeichens Chefvor- führer des berühmten Pictureville Cinema in Bradford, nutzte seinen Urlaub in Deutsch- land zu einer Stippvisite bei der Laser Hotline in Korntal. Eigentlich logisch, dass es da nicht nur bei einer Stippvisite blieb, wo man sich doch soviel Neues aus der Welt des Films im Speziellen und der Kinotechnik im Besonderen zu erzählen hatte. Und unser Heimkino hatte es ihm ganz offensichtlich angetan. Der Sound gefiel dem Spezialisten so gut, dass er immer mehr sehen und vor allem hören wollte. Dieser Wunsch wurde ihm natürlich nicht verweigert. So kam es, dass der Newsletter etwas auf der Strecke blieb. Der Experte beim Hörtest: unser Heimkino ist jetzt Einer unserer Geheimtipps liefert dieses Mal „Duncan“-approved! das Titelbild für den aktuellen Newsletter.

  • Phubber Sherlock, Risky London, Safe England: Remaking Holmes in the Age of Information Technology

    Phubber Sherlock, Risky London, Safe England: Remaking Holmes in the Age of Information Technology

    Concentric: Literary and Cultural Studies 43.1 March 2017: 329-347 DOI: 10.6240/concentric.lit.2017.43.1.15 Phubber Sherlock, Risky London, Safe England: Remaking Holmes in the Age of Information Technology Chung-jen Chen Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures National Taiwan University, Taiwan Abstract I intend to read the latest BBC production of Sherlock by exploring the making of digitized modernity in which confidence in science and technology is not only prominent but fundamental to instrumental rationality. Showing that violence may exist purely for the sake of violence, not for retaliation or out of self-interest, I argue that the remake of Sherlock is not concerned with criminals but criminality. By pointing out the discursive formation of digital citizenship endowed with indiscriminative rights of membership in the constant shadow of terrorist attacks, I argue that a safe England must be constructed in spite of the necessity of risk. Sherlock reveals a path leading to a digitized brave new world in which risks will be perceived as information, terrorist attacks conceived as incentives in an extended, reiterated game of prisoner’s dilemma, collective safety achieved through the calculation of coding, decoding and the networking of information technology, and every single life incarcerated within the process of capturing the torrent of big data. While digital citizenship promises a future of open access, free participation, and a lower barrier of entry, the promised democracy of information technology leads to the unavoidability of criminality and fear, leading to the coexistence of safety and risk. Keywords Sherlock, modernity, risk, governmental rationality, Benedict Cumberbatch, information technology, mobile phones 330 Concentric 43.1 March 2017 “This is my hard drive, and it only makes sense to put things in there that are useful.” —Sherlock in BBC’s “The Great Game” Since his literary birth in 1887, Sherlock Holmes has been synonymous with a detective hero who knows all, sees all, and solves all.
