  • Singapore 'A Land Imagined': Rising Seas, Land Reclamation and the Tropical Film-Noir City
    eTropic: electronic journal of studies in the tropics Singapore ‘A Land Imagined’: Rising Seas, Land Reclamation and the Tropical Film-Noir City Anita Lundberg http://orcid.org/0000-0002-0271-4715 James Cook University, Australia Jasmin Thamima Peer James Cook University, Australia Abstract Sea level rise due to climate change is predicted to be higher in the Tropics. As a low-lying, highly urbanised island near the equator, Singapore is taking an active response to this problem, including through large land reclamation projects. Incorporating both environmental and aesthetic elements, these projects also serve to bolster Singapore’s reputation as a shining example of a global city, a leading arts centre in Southeast Asia, and an economic hub to the world. This paper draws attention to urban development through an ethnographic reading of Yeo Siew Hua’s film A Land Imagined. A Singaporean tropical-noir mystery thriller, the film follows the rhizomatic path of a police investigator and his partner as they attempt to solve the disappearance of two foreign labourers. Interwoven within the film is a critique of Singapore’s treatment of migrant workers as it constructs the imaginary of the ‘Singapore Dream’. Keywords: Singapore city, film ethnography, land reclamation, migrant labour, rising seas, climate change, tropical imaginary, rhizomatics eTropic: electronic journal of studies in the tropics publishes new research from arts, humanities, social sciences and allied fields on the variety and interrelatedness of nature, culture, and society in the tropics. Published by James Cook University, a leading research institution on critical issues facing the worlds’ Tropics. Free open access, Scopus Listed, Scimago Q2.

Hogan, is a fun film about an eccentric woman who randomly takes on the role as the nanny of five children who have a “crazy” mother. Through her shenanigans she is able to teach them about the madness of life and the importance of family. Toni Collette and Anthony LaPaglia sink themselves into their roles so brilliantly that you lose yourself in their insanity. Oh, and it’s an Aussie film, which adds yet another level of fun! Mental combines the certifiably loony characters of Best In Show with the heartfelt songs of The Sound of Music, literally. Recommended For: People who can appreciate off-the-wall, zany stories! Silver Linings Playbook is a peculiar story about two people who have experienced loss and want to believe in a better tomorrow. Hope gives them comfort. Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper spend the majority of the film challenging one another, both as characters and actors.

    Ruth Harley 37° South address, Melbourne International Film Festival 2013 ‘The Power of Australian Film’ Dr Ruth Harley, CEO Screen Australia Address to 37° South, Melbourne International Film Festival 2013 Thursday 25 July 2013 I am very pleased to be here for the fifth year in a row to address the 37° South market. As many of you know, this will be my last as CEO of Screen Australia as my term ends in November. Now then, is an opportunity to reflect and to look forward. I will take you through some of the things I’ve learned in my time with the agency and some thoughts for the future. There is much to be proud of in Australian screen production over the last five years. We’ve seen the successful introduction of the Producer Offset and concurrent increase in overall film and TV production, up 58% to just under $3 billion according to ABS data released last month. We’ve seen an increase in employment in the sector of 23% to 13,414 people. 1 Ruth Harley 37° South address, Melbourne International Film Festival 2013 We’ve seen an increase of local box office of 64% compared to the previous five year average. And we’ve seen some amazing screen stories. I’d like to share with you now a reel of some of the Screen Australia slate from the past five years, with some familiar faces from our sector describing Australian content matters. The Power of Australian Storytelling clip [CLIP] We’ve also seen, in the last five years a shift in some of the commentary about Australian screen stories.

  • Italian Films (Updated April 2011)
    Language Laboratory Film Collection Wagner College: Campus Hall 202 Italian Films (updated April 2011): Agata and the Storm/ Agata e la tempesta (2004) Silvio Soldini. Italy The pleasant life of middle-aged Agata (Licia Maglietta) -- owner of the most popular bookstore in town -- is turned topsy-turvy when she begins an uncertain affair with a man 13 years her junior (Claudio Santamaria). Meanwhile, life is equally turbulent for her brother, Gustavo (Emilio Solfrizzi), who discovers he was adopted and sets off to find his biological brother (Giuseppe Battiston) -- a married traveling salesman with a roving eye. Bicycle Thieves/ Ladri di biciclette (1948) Vittorio De Sica. Italy Widely considered a landmark Italian film, Vittorio De Sica's tale of a man who relies on his bicycle to do his job during Rome's post-World War II depression earned a special Oscar for its devastating power. The same day Antonio (Lamberto Maggiorani) gets his vehicle back from the pawnshop, someone steals it, prompting him to search the city in vain with his young son, Bruno (Enzo Staiola). Increasingly, he confronts a looming desperation. Big Deal on Madonna Street/ I soliti ignoti (1958) Mario Monicelli. Italy Director Mario Monicelli delivers this deft satire of the classic caper film Rififi, introducing a bungling group of amateurs -- including an ex-jockey (Carlo Pisacane), a former boxer (Vittorio Gassman) and an out-of-work photographer (Marcello Mastroianni). The crew plans a seemingly simple heist with a retired burglar (Totó), who serves as a consultant. But this Italian job is doomed from the start. Blow up (1966) Michelangelo Antonioni.
