Geoffrey Brown 3 This thesis is dedicated to Agnès Calatayud, an inspirational teacher, who reconnected me to French cinema after a long carence, and who, crucially, first introduced me to the films of Claire Denis. 4 Abstract This thesis argues that the interest which the films of Claire Denis display in the ever-shifting modes of relations between people is illustrated through analysis of how music is used throughout her corpus of feature films. Denis draws on an extremely eclectic palette of musical styles, and the thesis proposes that these varying musical modalities are central to her treatment of relational issues, as are the ways in which she deploys her chosen musical selections.

  • Distribution of Czechoslovak Films in Poland in the Years 1947–1973
    Studia z Dziejów Rosji i Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej ■ LIV (4) Karol Szymański https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9158-9452 Distribution of Czechoslovak films in Poland in the years 1947–1973 Zarys treści: Począwszy od premiery Ludzi bez skrzydeł w 1947 r. filmy czechosłowackie weszły na stałe do repertuaru polskich kin i stały się aż do upadku komunizmu jednym z jego najważ- niejszych składników (stanowiąc 8% wszystkich tytułów wprowadzonych do rozpowszechniania w czasach PRL-u). Były wyświetlane w ramach dystrybucji zarówno tzw. szerokiej (normalnej), jak i wąskiej – ograniczonej wyłącznie do dyskusyjnych klubów filmowych oraz kin studyjnych. Ponadto można je było oglądać na różnego rodzaju festiwalach i przeglądach (np. na cieszących się ogromną popularnością corocznych Konfrontacjach) oraz okazjonalnych pokazach i uro- czystych premierach. Od 1958 r. znalazły się również w repertuarze Telewizji Polskiej, przy czym częściowo były to tytuły premierowe – nieznane wcześniej z kin (w tym m.in. seriale). Content outline: Ever since the premiere of Men Without Wings in 1947, Czechoslovak films have become a permanent feature in the roster of Polish cinemas and were one of its major components until the collapse of communism (constituting 8% of all titles introduced to distri- bution during the communist era). They were screened as part of both the wide (regular) and limited distribution, i.e. restricted only to film societies and arthouse cinemas. Moreover, they could be seen at various festivals and reviews (such as the very popular annual Confrontations [Konfrontacje]) and occasional screenings and solemn premieres. Since 1958, they have also been included in the programme of the Polish Television [Telewizja Polska], some of them being premiere titles – previously unreleased in cinemas (including series).
