  • Appalling! Terrifying! Wonderful! Blaxploitation and the Cinematic Image of the South
    Antoni Górny Appalling! Terrifying! Wonderful! Blaxploitation and the Cinematic Image of the South Abstract: The so-called blaxploitation genre – a brand of 1970s film-making designed to engage young Black urban viewers – has become synonymous with channeling the political energy of Black Power into larger-than-life Black characters beating “the [White] Man” in real-life urban settings. In spite of their urban focus, however, blaxploitation films repeatedly referenced an idea of the South whose origins lie in antebellum abolitionist propaganda. Developed across the history of American film, this idea became entangled in the post-war era with the Civil Rights struggle by way of the “race problem” film, which identified the South as “racist country,” the privileged site of “racial” injustice as social pathology.1 Recently revived in the widely acclaimed works of Quentin Tarantino (Django Unchained) and Steve McQueen (12 Years a Slave), the two modes of depicting the South put forth in blaxploitation and the “race problem” film continue to hold sway to this day. Yet, while the latter remains indelibly linked, even in this revised perspective, to the abolitionist vision of emancipation as the result of a struggle between idealized, plaintive Blacks and pathological, racist Whites, blaxploitation’s troping of the South as the fulfillment of grotesque White “racial” fantasies offers a more powerful and transformative means of addressing America’s “race problem.” Keywords: blaxploitation, American film, race and racism, slavery, abolitionism The year 2013 was a momentous one for “racial” imagery in Hollywood films. Around the turn of the year, Quentin Tarantino released Django Unchained, a sardonic action- film fantasy about an African slave winning back freedom – and his wife – from the hands of White slave-owners in the antebellum Deep South.

  • Sample Film Analysis
    Skywalker 1 Leia Skywalker Professor Kenobi ENGL1301 10 November 2015 Tinker Tailor Winter Soldier Captain America: The Winter Solider is one of my favorite films and my favorite of the Marvel films franchise by far. Marvel generally takes an interesting approach to its cinematic universe by blending superhero films with other genres to produce genre-breaking movies. Thor, for example, bears the hallmarks of a fantasy film with its sweeping vistas of other worlds, while Guardians of the Galaxy moves into the realm of science fiction, including large-scale spaceship fights like Star Wars and Star Trek. Ant-Man revolved around planning and executing a heist, and Captain America: The First Avenger is largely a war movie. Captain America: The Winter Soldier (CATWS) follows this pattern, combining a superhero film with one of my favorite tropes, the sociopolitical spy thriller. In effect, it’s Captain America meets Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. The film raises issues of current political threats, and while the music and plot build suspense, Captain America and Black Widow don’t know who to trust—all key hallmarks of Cold War spy films. Although the original Cold War backstory of the Captain America comics has been largely jettisoned to make room for a modern terrorist threat in this film, the most obvious earmark remains: the Winter Solider keeps his name. Formerly Sergeant James “Bucky” Barnes, Steve’s best friend (and supposed war casualty), the Winter Soldier was forcibly recruited for HYDRA back in World War II, when Steve mistakenly thought Bucky had been killed. HYDRA in the first Captain America movie represented the Nazis; it’s implied in CATWS that during the Cold War, they represented the USSR; and in the modern world of CATWS, they represent a terrorist threat.
