  • The Psychological Landscapes of Michelangelo Antonioni (1912–2007) a Centenary Tribute
    The Psychological Landscapes of Michelangelo Antonioni (1912 – 2007) A Centenary Tribute David Gariff La Notte, 1961 (Photofest) National Gallery of Art 4 David Gariff 5 The Psychological Landscapes of Michelangelo Antonioni (1912 – 2007) A Centenary Tribute The subject of my films is always born of a landscape, of a site, of a place I want to explore. A film you can explain in words is not a real film. — Michelangelo Antonioni Landscape is important to Michelangelo Antonioni. His films explore both an interior psychological terrain as well as the physical geography of nature and man-made structures and spaces. The complex dialogue between these two realms of thought and existence bestows upon his films a richness — a depth — that is uniquely his own. Antonioni is the epitome of an auteur filmmaker. Of course the very aspects of Antonioni’s auteur style that many celebrate are seen by others as the source of an inaccessible opaqueness. Emerging from this basic interior/exterior dichotomy are also a complex range of secondary tensions and interac- tions between words and images, men and women, love and sex, mankind and the environment, nature and architecture, the individual and society, humanism and technology, action and stasis, engagement and alienation — ultimately, between being and nothingness. Any work of art can and perhaps must be approached through both its intrinsic and extrinsic perspectives. Those qualities most relevant to the intrinsic revolve around a work’s purely formal characteristics. The formalist language of An- tonioni’s early films L’Av ve ntu ra (1960), La Notte (1961), and L’Eclisse (1962), often discussed as a trilogy, was new to the 1960s.

  • POST-PHENOMENOLOGICAL ETHICS and the CINEMA Brian K
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: SEEING AND THE SEEN: POST -PHENOMENOLOGICAL ETHICS AND THE CINEMA Brian K. Bergen -Aurand, Doctor of Philosophy, 2004 Dissertation directed by: Professor Orrin N. C. Wang Comparative Literature Program What is the re lationship between cinema and ethics, especially an elusive ethics more concerned with responding to alterity than with establishing moral order? Seeing and the Seen addresses this question by demonstrating how three seemingly unambiguous cinematic moments (from nations with totalitarian histories) are structured by ambiguity and aporia. These uncertain structures evoke non-assimilative, non-totalizing ethical responses that counter monolithic interpretations of cinema. Previously, skeptical approaches to cinema have not focused on ethics. They have relied upon hermeneutic techniques to “interpret” elements and then discuss their relevance. Their concerns have been ontological and epistemological. Using the post -phenomenological thought of Emmanuel Lev inas and Jacques Derrida, I argue, however, that skepticism connects cinema to an ethics of response. Chapter One introduces the ideas of post -phenomenological ethics, skepticism, and cinema, to show how their interrelationship actually challenges traditio nal views, such as Levinas’s that see art as unethical. Chapter Two analyzes narrative absence and the ethics of alienation in Michelangelo Antonioni’s L’avventura . I compare ontological and ethical readings of this film to argue against interpreting it as tragic. The final caress between the film’s protagonists is a metaphor for cinematic representations of ethical response. Chapter Three discusses the ethics of pornography in films by Pedro Almodóvar, who shows how pornography and non-pornography remain interdependent. Focusing on cinematic iterability, I demonstrate how pornographic and non-pornographic tropes oscillate between the two genres, rendering their borders uncertain.

  • Michelangelo Antonioni: Nagyítás
    ..MICHELANGELO ANTONIONI: NAGYÍTÁS. A film adatai: Eredeti címe: Blow Up. Készült: 1966-ban, színes angol-olasz film. Írta és rendezte: Julio Cortazar novellája nyomán Michelangelo Antonioni. Operatőr: Carlo di Palma. Zene: Herbie Nacock és a Yardbird együttes. Főszereplők: David Hemmings (Thomas), Vanessa Redgrave (Jane), Sarah Miles (Patricia), John Castle (Bill), Jane Birkin (szőke lány). A film a cannes-i filmfesztiválon 1967-ben Arany Pálma díjat kapott, de Oscarra és Bafta- díjakra is jelölték. A rendező: Michelangelo Antonioni (1912– ) 1912. szeptember 29-én született Ferrarában jómódú középpolgári családban. Fiatalkorában a képzőművészet és építészet érdekli. Bolognában műegyetemi, közgazdasági és kereskedelmi tanulmányokba kezd. Közben színpadi darabokat ír és rendez egy műkedvelő diákszíntársulatnál. Filmkritikákat közöl a helyi lapban. Első kapcsolata a filmezéssel: egy amatőr dokumentumfilm készítésére vállakozik az őrültekről. 1939-ben Rómába megy. A filmes főiskola, a Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia hallgatója lesz. („A film technikai oldala tulajdonképpen soha nem érdekelt. Ha egyszer megtanulta az ember a filmgrammatika két-három alapszabályát, csinálhat, amit akar, akár meg is szegheti ezeket a szabályokat.” – írja erről.) Vizsgafilmjének főszereplője első felesége: Letizia Balboni (aki akkoriban vágást tanult a főiskolán). Kritikákat közöl a Cinema című lapban.

  • In Neorealism's Wake: the Italian Cinema Of
    IN NEOREALISM’S WAKE: THE ITALIAN CINEMA OF RECONSTRUCTION by Matthew E. Zumwalt A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of English Middle Tennessee State University May 2021 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Will Brantley, Chair Dr. Christopher Weedman Dr. Robert Holtzclaw This text is dedicated to the memory of Dr. David Lavery. His profound love of cinema and erstwhile dedication to his students continues to inspire me in all my endeavors. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the members of my dissertation committee who provided valuable insight and feedback at every stage of this project and the faculty, students, and staff of Middle Tennessee State University’s English department who have aided me in my studies over the past 5 years. iii ABSTRACT In Neorealism’s Wake: The Italian Cinema of Reconstruction Matthew Zumwalt Studies of Italian post-war cinema have traditionally relied on a historiography that divides the field into two categories: neorealist and post-neorealist. This enduring periodization has allowed for rhetorical distinctions between the pure neorealist aesthetic of the immediate post-war period and the various auteurist styles that developed in neorealism’s wake. While this dichotomy acknowledges differences between the spartan productions of the late 1940’s and the more elaborate, often set- bound pictures of the 1960’s, the tendency to valorize these specific periods has underplayed important dimensions of Italian cinema in the 1950’s. This study demonstrates that the early films of five now-celebrated directors bear the mark of the country’s reconstruction while also engaging the complex discourse of neorealist aesthetics and filmmaking practices that have come to dominate the study of Italian cinema.
