Rape and the Virgin Spring Abstract
Silence and Fury: Rape and The Virgin Spring Alexandra Heller-Nicholas Abstract This article is a reconsideration of The Virgin Spring that focuses upon the rape at the centre of the film’s action, despite the film’s surface attempts to marginalise all but its narrative functionality. While the deployment of this rape supports critical observations that rape on-screen commonly underscores the seriousness of broader thematic concerns, it is argued that the visceral impact of this brutal scene actively undermines its narrative intent. No matter how central the journey of the vengeful father’s mission from vengeance to redemption is to the story, this ultimately pales next to the shocking impact of the rape and murder of the girl herself. James R. Alexander identifies Ingmar Bergman’s The Virgin Spring as “the basic template” for the contemporary rape-revenge film[1 ], and despite spawning a vast range of imitations[2 ], the film stands as a major entry in the canon of European art cinema. Yet while the sumptuous black and white cinematography of long-time Bergman collaborator Sven Nykvist combined with lead actor Max von Sydow’s trademark icy sobriety to garner it the Academy Award for Best Foreign film in 1960, even fifty years later the film’s representation of the rape and murder of a young girl remain shocking. The film evokes a range of issues that have been critically debated: What is its placement in a more general auteurist treatment of Bergman? What is its influence on later rape-revenge films? How does it fit into a broader understanding of Swedish national cinema, or European art film in general? But while the film hinges around the rape and murder, that act more often than not is of critical interest only in how it functions in these more dominant debates. -

1 CRIES and WHISPERS Jean Morris Is a Spanish / French
CRIES AND WHISPERS Jean Morris is a Spanish / French / English translator living in London. She has been collaborating with me since 2015 translating into English the subtitles for most of the poems I choose for my videos. She is an extraordinary and generous professional, and also an amazing poet, sensitive and technically accurate. Cries and Whispers is not the first poem of hers that I have worked with: Domingo después del vendaval (Sunday Morning After Gales), Shelter (an unfinished project) and, of course, Metamorphosis, a happy collaboration made under the direction of filmmaker Marie Craven. As usual, Jean gave me total freedom to work with her poem as I liked. I asked her to explain a little more about the period the poem is set in. She told me that she wrote the poem from her experience spending some time as a student of Spanish in Granada in 1975. What happens in the poem is Jean’s real life; she is able to write good poetry from her own life, so moving and profound. The way she mixes her father's death with the Ingmar Bergman film Cries and Whispers (Gritos y Susurros, or Viskningar och Rop) (1972) astonished me. Then I had the idea of linking her father's death to the historical death that occurred that year of 1975 in Spain and changed the country: Fascist dictator Franco's death (a disgusting and extremely tough “father”, by the way). The weird mix of footages and sounds gave me the idea of the introductory sentence of the video: A film found in a hard disk drive (or the modern place where we store our memories). -

Galenson NBER Working Paper No. 15930 April 2010 JEL No. Z11 ABSTRACT John Ford and Alfred Hitchcock were experimental filmmakers: both believed images were more important to movies than words, and considered movies a form of entertainment. Their styles developed gradually over long careers, and both made the films that are generally considered their greatest during their late 50s and 60s. In contrast, Orson Welles and Jean-Luc Godard were conceptual filmmakers: both believed words were more important to their films than images, and both wanted to use film to educate their audiences. Their greatest innovations came in their first films, as Welles made the revolutionary Citizen Kane when he was 26, and Godard made the equally revolutionary Breathless when he was 30. Film thus provides yet another example of an art in which the most important practitioners have had radically different goals and methods, and have followed sharply contrasting life cycles of creativity. -

The Films of Ingmar Bergman Jesse Kalin Frontmatter More Information
Cambridge University Press 0521380650 - The Films of Ingmar Bergman Jesse Kalin Frontmatter More information The Films of Ingmar Bergman This volume provides a concise overview of the career of one of the modern masters of world cinema. Jesse Kalin defines Bergman’s conception of the human condition as a struggle to find meaning in life as it is played out. For Bergman, meaning is achieved independently of any moral absolute and is the result of a process of self-examination. Six existential themes are explored repeatedly in Bergman’s films: judgment, abandonment, suffering, shame, a visionary picture, and above all, turning toward or away from others. Kalin examines how Bergman develops these themes cinematically, through close analysis of eight films: well-known favorites such as Wild Strawberries, The Seventh Seal, Smiles of a Summer Night, and Fanny and Alexander; and im- portant but lesser-known works, such as Naked Night, Shame, Cries and Whispers, and Scenes from a Marriage. Jesse Kalin is Andrew W. Mellon Professor of Humanities and Professor of Philosophy at Vassar College, where he has taught since 1971. He served as the Associate Editor of the journal Philosophy and Literature, and has con- tributed to journals such as Ethics, American Philosophical Quarterly, and Philosophical Studies. © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 0521380650 - The Films of Ingmar Bergman Jesse Kalin Frontmatter More information CAMBRIDGE FILM CLASSICS General Editor: Ray Carney, Boston University The Cambridge Film Classics series provides a forum for revisionist studies of the classic works of the cinematic canon from the perspective of the “new auterism,” which recognizes that films emerge from a complex interaction of bureaucratic, technological, intellectual, cultural, and personal forces. -

25 YEARS OF MEDIA INVESTING IN CREATIVITY, BUILDING THE FUTURE 1 - 2 DECEMBER 2016, BOZAR, BRUSSELS #MEDIA25 “Oh how Shakespeare would have loved cinema!” Derek Jarman, filmmaker and writer “‘Culture’ as a whole, and in the widest sense, is the glue that forms identity and that determines the soul of Europe. And cinema has a privileged position in that realm… Movies helped to invent and to perpetuate the ‘American Dream’. They can do wonders for the image of Europe, too.” Wim Wenders, filmmaker “The best advice I can offer to those heading into the world of film is not to wait for the system to finance your projects and for others to decide your fate.” Werner Herzog, filmmaker “You don’t make a movie, the movie makes you.” Jean-Luc Godard, filmmaker “A good film is when the price of the dinner, the theatre admission and the babysitter were worth it.” Alfred Hitchcock, filmmaker The 25th anniversary of MEDIA The European Commission, in collaboration with the Centre for Fine Arts (BOZAR), is organising a special European Film Forum (EFF) to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the MEDIA programme, which supports European audiovisual creations and their distribution across borders.

This special edition of the European Film Forum is the highlight of the 25th anniversary celebrations. On the one hand, it represents the consummation of the testimonials collected from audiovisual professionals from across Europe over the year. -
