  • Liste Des Films FEMIS 2021 Par Départements Et Par Ordre Chronologique
    LISTE DES FILMS RECOMMANDÉS PAR LA FÉMIS 2021 Lors des rentrée 2017 puis 2020, il fut demandé aux Directeurs-Directrices des Départements et aux instances responsables de la Fémis de constituer une liste des 30 films considérés comme les plus indispensables : pour les élèves de leur secteur de spécialité (selon les DD) ou pour l’histoire du cinéma et des arts filmiques en général (selon les responsables administratifs et techniques). Il ne s’agit donc pas d’une liste des films favoris, mais des titres estimés parmi les plus nécessaires pour nourrir l’imaginaire formel des élèves, pour aider ceux-ci à approfondir leur connaissance de l’histoire d’une discipline, pour servir de repères communs dans le cadre d’un enseignement. Voici les résultats de la campagne 2020-2021. Ils ont vocation à évoluer chaque année en fonction des nouvelles rencontres de chacun-e avec le cinéma. Cette liste collective s’ajoute à celle des « 208 films » constituée par Alain Bergala, fondée sur le principe de la découverte de sa propre esthétique par un auteur. Ensemble, ces listes établissent une proposition pour quiconque – élèves de La Fémis, candidat-e-s, cinéphiles de tous horizons – voudrait commencer son initiation aux histoires du cinéma et des arts filmiques.

Auch hier führten gesellschaftliche, technologische und wirtschaftliche Veränderungen zu einer außergewöhnlich innovativen Schaffensperiode, in der eine neue Generation von Filmemachern die Normen der Unterhaltungsindus- trie herausforderte und nachhaltig veränderte. Der vorliegende Sammelband nimmt den bislang wenig erforschten Trend zum Anlass, um sich Phänomenen des Seriellen aus film-, medien- und kulturwis- senschaftlicher Perspektive zu nähern. Neben den sogenannten Qualitätsserien aus den USA werden Fallbeispiele aus anderen Ländern und Kulturkreisen wie Lateinamerika beleuchtet. Historisch reicht das Spektrum von den Anfängen des Films bis hin zu den Remakes und Sequels des zeitgenössischen Blockbusterkinos. Mit einem Beitrag über Online-Serien ist neben Film und Fernsehen auch das Internet vertreten.

  • Chapter 14 the Idea of Love in the TV Serial Drama in Treatment
    1 Chapter 14 The Idea of Love in the TV Serial Drama In Treatment Christine Lang I felt from the beginning that mental problems can be very universal, which is why we deal with archetypical problems. —Hagai Levi, creator of BeTipul1 As the history of film and film theory has repeatedly shown, the relationship between cinema and psychoanalysis is a fruitful one. However, the Israeli TV serial drama BeTipul (2005–2008)2 and its American adaptation In Treatment (2008–2010) are the first TV series to be entirely restricted to the conversation between therapist and patient.3 This chapter will discuss how the narrative of In Treatment focuses on the patient–doctor relationship as a forbidden trope and on how the therapist, Dr. Paul Weston (played by Gabriel Byrne), is caught up in conflicts as a result of his incipient transference love. He feels something for his patient, but he knows that he shouldn’t. This “dark” love story constitutes the linchpin and principal subject of the first season of In Treatment. At first this essay gives a definition of a TV serial drama as an auteur film; then it outlines the story lines of In Treatment. The essay examines In Treatment from a specific perspective, with an eye to its structure and its filmic and aesthetic means and with special attention to its dramaturgy and the communicative constellation of its narrative. The last two sections of the essay address the subject of transference love and how it is represented in In Treatment. 1 2 Auteur Series Like the Israeli original series BeTipul, the first season of In Treatment, which is the primary focus of this essay, was broadcast five times a week, with a single episode each day from Monday through Friday.

  • Worldwide Equipment Guide
    OPFOR WORLDWIDE EQUIPMENT GUIDE TRADOC DCSINT Threat Support Directorate DISTRIBUTION RESTRICTION: Approved for public release; distribution unlimited. Worldwide Equipment Guide Introduction This Worldwide Equipment Guide (WEG) serves as an interim guide for use in training, simulations, and modeling until the publication of FM 100-65, Capabilities-Based Opposing Force: Worldwide Equipment Guide. The WEG is designed for use with the FM 100-60 series of capabilities-based opposing force field manuals. It provides the basic characteristics of selected equipment and weapons systems readily available to the capabilities-based OPFOR, and generally listed in either FM 100-61, Armor- and Mechanized-Based Opposing Force: Organization Guide or FM 100-63, Infantry-Based Opposing Force: Organization Guide. Selected weapons systems and equipment are included in the categories of infantry weapons, infantry vehicles, reconnais- sance vehicles, tanks/assault vehicles, antitank, artillery, air defense, engineer and logistic systems, and rotary-wing aircraft. The pages in this WEG are designed for insertion into loose-leaf notebooks. Since this guide does not include all possible OPFOR systems identified in the OPFOR field manuals, equipment sheets covering additional systems not contained in this initial issue will be published periodically. Systems selected will be keyed directly to the baseline equipment contained in the 100-60 series and substitute systems found in the appropriate substitution matrix. The WEG is scheduled for eventual publication on the worldwide web for use by authorized government or- ganizations. WORLDWIDE OPFOR EQUIPMENT Due to the proliferation of weapons through sales and resale, wartime capture, and li- censed or unlicensed production of major end items, distinctions between equipment as friendly or OPFOR have blurred.
