  • The History of Film Adaptation in Malaysia: the Long Journey of Its Rise and Fall
    THE HISTORY OF FILM ADAPTATION IN MALAYSIA: THE LONG JOURNEY OF ITS RISE AND FALL (Sejarah Filem Adaptasi di Malaysia: Sebuah Perjalanan Jatuh Bangun yang Panjang) Wan Hasmah Wan Teh [email protected] School of Humanities, Universiti Sains Malaysia. Published online: 3 December 2018 To cite: Wan Hasmah Wan Teh. (2018). The history of film adaptation in Malaysia: The long journey of its rise and fall. Malay Literature 31(2), 361 – 382. Abstract Morris Beja in his book Film and Literature: An Introduction, said that since the Academy Awards was introduced in 1927 – 1928, about three quarters of the award for best film was won by film adaptations. This is proof that film adaptation is a form of art that has gained the attention of the world community and was a well- known form of narrative in the 19th and 20th centuries in Europe. This paper takes the initiative to trace the history of film adaptations in general by focusing on such films in Malaysia. Findings of the study reveal that the history of film adaptation in Malaysia started in 1933 during the filming enterprise of Cathay Film and Malay Film in Singapore up to the setting up of Merdeka Studio in Kuala Lumpur in the 1970s and beyond. The film industry in Malaysia faced many problems including the influx of imported films from Indonesia and the commercialization factor that did not guarantee profits. However, around 2006, concerted efforts were reinforced to adapt literary works into films, through workshops and competitions organized by Malaysian government bodies such as Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP), National Film Development Corporation (FINAS) and Radio and Television Malaysia (RTM).

  • Revisiting Hatta Azad Khan's
    www.ccsenet.org/ass Asian Social Science Vol. 8, No. 5; April 2012 Constructing the Cinema-of-Intent: Revisiting Hatta Azad Khan’s ‘True Picture’ Badrul Redzuan Abu Hassan School of Media and Communication Studies National University of Malaysia, Bangi UKM 43600, Selangor, Malaysia Tel: 60-3-8921-5811 E-mail: [email protected] Received: February 20, 2012 Accepted: March 13, 2012 Published: April 16, 2012 doi:10.5539/ass.v8n5p55 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ass.v8n5p55 Abstract One of the most important works on Malaysian cinema of the last twenty years has been Hatta Azad Khan’s The Malay Cinema (1997). Khan’s seminal work is located within the critical debates on the notion of national cinema that preoccupied film scholars, predominantly in the West, from the mid 1980s through the 1990s. Comparatively, Khan’s conceptualization is juxtaposed in this article for a critical appraisal between the influential Australian and British cinema contexts, as both are forms of national cinemas in their own rights. This article then revisits Khan’s scholarship on Malay cinema, particularly the factors shaping his ‘true picture’ idealism in the context of emerging Malaysian cinema in terms of it as a developmental and critical sphere of cosmopolitan aesthetics. Finally, this article will evaluate Khan’s belief in the relevance of social realism as a philosophical interpretation for an ideologically driven cinema-of-intent and whether or not it can serve as a framework for the future of Malaysian cinema. Keywords: National cinema, Malay cinema, Cinema-of-intent, Social realism, True picture 1.

This thesis is inspired by the idea proposed by Christine Gledhill (1988) that at the core of cultural negotiation in melodrama is gender representation which is the cultural product resulting from the linking of textual and social subjects.

  • Democratisation of Cinematic Space in Malaysia: Digital Film Activism and the Freedom Film Festival
    Democratisation of Cinematic Space in Malaysia: Digital Film Activism and the Freedom Film Festival Mahyuddin Ahmad* , Lee Yuen Beng** , Wang Lay Kim*** Abstract: Digital film activism as a popular alternative platform is used for the publication and dissemination of information, ideas, and views deemed too sensitive for the state controlled mainstream media. Such forms of activism have been actively carried out through the annual Freedom Film Festival (FFF). Held since 2003, the FFF exhibits films and documentaries with hopes of spreading justice, peace, equality, and democracy. The FFF exists not only as a site of exhibition and distribution that bypasses state legislation and censorship in delegitimising the oppressive forces of censorship and state control, it also encourages the production of such films that would either be prohibited or subjected to strict cinematic, cultural or political controls. This paper critically examines the development of digital film activism and the FFF along the theoretical formulation of Third Cinema to analyse if indeed cinematic space in Malaysia has begin to become democratised. Keywords: Digital film activism, democracy, Third Cinema, Freedom Film Festival, KOMAS, Malaysian cinema *Mahyuddin Ahmad, senior lecturer of School of Communication, Universiti Sains Malaysia.

Since the 1980s, independent filmmakers such as Bernice Chauly and Mansor Puteh have been making films about social injustice, political situations, and cultural differences.

  • From Heartbroken Wives to Working Mothers: the Malay Melodrama of the Early 1980S
    From Heartbroken Wives to Working Mothers: The Malay Melodrama of the Early 1980s Norman Yusojf This essay examines the Malay melodrama produced in the early 1980s by focusing upon the representation and (re)construction of gender and its extent to which the genre subverts its conventionality in relation to the gender subjectivity and relativity. Since cinematic texts, as forms of representation, are polysemic, my argument is that the depiction of women in the melodramas does not perpetuate them as "commodified" and stereotyped into the binary images of "good" and "bad" due to the films' renegotiation of the ambiguities of representation. On the other hand, the portrayal of men, which seems negative, resonates in ways that contest and question their masculinity. My analysis will go on to trace the social, economic and political implications in Malaysia during the early 1980s as the country was on the verge of modernization and how they reflect and shape the defining features of the Malay melodrama of the early 1980s. In a way, the essay aims to map and frame the notion of genres "as a form of collective cultural expression" (Schatz, 1981), by underlining the socio-cultural and ideological functions which the Malay melodrama of the early 1980s performs. As is known, melodrama is one of the few film genres which has been subject to critical derision and, employed in a pejorative sense, normally by critics, to imply domesticity, femininity, heightened emotionalism and sentimentality.1 By the same token, a smorgasbord of alternative names has been invented for the melodramatic films, found in the English- language reviews and publicities surrounding them; amongst the names are "women's pictures," "tearjerkers," "weepies," and "soap operas" (Singer, 1990).
