Canada 11 Abstract Revenge-themed films often depict the practice of justice-making through violent means. Two general aesthetic techniques are engaged that allow violent action to be recognized as attempting to properly compensate for past offenses. First, poetic justice is achieved through ironic reversals that repeat inflicted harms back against the wrongdoer. Formal techniques of repeating specific shots, sounds, cuts, and camera actions create aesthetic connections that intuitively and synoptically express necessary proportion in punishing violence. Second, justice requires it be publicly recognized and revenge cinema makes this by creating literally, impliedly, and intertextually ostentatious spaces for witnessing and recognizing justice-making. Formal analysis therefore reveals the spectacular qualities of vengeance cinema and, in turn, reveals the place and function of spectacle in law and courtroom practices as well. Thus, revenge-themed films exist in a courtroom of attractions that resists law's coolly rational facade and reveals its spectacular foundation. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This thesis was originally intended to include various film stills. For a range of reasons, these images have not been included in this final version. Accordingly, I would like to recognize the Film Studies Association of Canada and their efforts promote the fair use of cinematic material for scholarship. Thanks to my friends and colleagues in the Masters program at Carleton and back home in Winnipeg, as the success of my work is owed to their influence and kindness. My gratitude particularly goes to my friend and colleague, Mike Freethy, who has generously reviewed my writing throughout and has never let this process be taken too seriously. Thanks to the faculty at the Department of Film studies who have each let me darken their door with this little project - in particular, Chris Faulkner, who greatly altered the focus of this thesis for the better, and Mitsuyo Wada-Marciano, who was the first to review many of the ideas herein and has been a great supporter since. Great thanks to my supervisor, Andre Loiselle, whose encouragement, insight, and good humour has been invaluable. He is the best. Special thanks to my wonderful and always encouraging parents, Bobbie and Sonny - without whom, I would be nothing (literally and figuratively). I cannot express how grateful I am that both are around to see the conclusion of this project. And thanks most of all to Jenn, whose love, patience, and devotion has been this project's greatest inspiration and motivation. CONTENTS ABSTRACT ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS iii CONTENTS iv INTRODUCTION 1 1.

" Scott Evil: "Why don't you just shoot him now? I mean I'll go get a gun. We '11 shoot him together? It'll be fun. Bang! Dead. Done. " Dr. Evil: "ONE MORE PEEP OUT OF YOU AND YOU ARE GROUNDED, MISTER, AND I AM NOT JOKING!" Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (Jay Roach, 1997) Since Louis Lumiere filmed a gardener discipline a mischievous, young boy in Arroseur arose (1895), the cinema has continued to show the desire for justice and the spectacle of punishment to be an ever popular subject. Vengeance-themes cross film genres and even modes, whether it is undertaken by frustrated secretaries in 9 to 5 (Colin Higgins, 1980), at the end of a six-shooter in The Bravados (Henry King, 1958), or on the frozen artic of Atanarjuat the Fast Runner (Zacharias Kunuk, 2001). Revenge has similarly crossed industrial and national boundaries to create avengers as varied as kung fu experts in Shaolin Master Killer (Chia-Liang Liu, 1978), Jack Hill's blaxploitation heroines Foxy Brown (1974) and Coffy (1973), the poisonous seductress of Female Demon Ohyaku (Yoshiro Ishikawa, 1968), and even a comic book rocker returned from the dead in Alex Proyas' The Crow (1994). In fact, the variety and sheer number of films with revenge content is remarkable.' This should not be surprising as vengeance themes abound in ' A search of the Internet Movie Database (www.imdb.com) of the keyword "Revenge" identifies no less than 3,606 titles. Reviewing some of these titles leads me to believe that this list is by no means exhaustive and that a truly complete list would notably be still larger, http://www.imdb.com/keyword/revenge/ (accessed April 10,2008). 2 other media. Examples of revenge-themed literature appear similarly limitless - including contemporary works such as Death Wish, Death Sentence, and other books by Brian Garfield and extending back to Hienrich von Kleist's Michael Kohlhaas, Shakespeare's tragedies, the Icelandic Sagas, Biblical stories, and still earlier works. Revenge narratives are so pervasive that they have established their own conventions and, thus, become fodder for parody, as demonstrated in the exchange between Dr. Evil (Mike Myers) and Scott Evil (Seth Green) reproduced above. Dr. Evil resignedly observes shortly after the cited exchange, "Scott, you just don't get it, do you?" And while we appreciate Scott's straightforward approach to villainy informed, no doubt, by numerous James Bond films, we nevertheless understand his father's view. The triumphant meaning derived from Dr. Evil's violent actions is found not merely in the results of those acts, but also by the form and presentation of the violence itself. David Bordwell observes in classical narrative cinema "an extrinsic norm, the need to resolve the plot in a way that yields 'poetic justice,' provides a structural constant, inserted with more or less motivation into its proper slot, the epilogue." Bordwell fails to explain what is meant by 'poetic justice,' appearing to assume that the expression coined by Thomas Rymer in The Tragedies of the Last Age Considered (1678) is now self-explanatory and that its conventions of ironic reversal are intuitively recognizable. In the following pages, poetic justice will have central importance, particularly within the context of the contemporary and frequently violent revenge films 2 David Bordwell, Narration in the Fiction Film (Madison: The University of Wisconsin Press, 1985), 159. 3 reviewed herein.31 maintain that cinema's poetic justice requires that harms be accounted for through a process that involves specifically aesthetic components related to notions of creativity, repetition, proportion, and spectacle. In the context of films containing brutal avengers attempting to account for their losses, formal techniques associated with poetic justice create contextualizing cues that identify violent acts as belonging to legal thinkers and not maniacal individuals "gone postal." Further, this emphasis on the style of punishing acts exists because the manner of the actions themselves is a measure of the poetic justice sought. Ultimately, an understanding of some basic socio-legal principles associated with accounting for harm and punishment provide insight into the formal techniques that comprise the vocabulary of justice-making in film narratives. In turn, the spectacle of poetic justice, as a popularly imagined system of justice-making, provides access to the normally hidden nature of courtroom practices.

    Celebrity Cinema and Hallyu 2.0 Ng Shu Min Chrystal, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore Liew Kai Khiun, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore The Asian Conference on Media & Mass Communication 2015 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract Through their realist cinematic portrayals of the traumatic evolution of Korean socio- political landscapes, Korean directors such as Im Kwon-Taek are synonymous with Korean national Cinema. These directors have raised the country’s cultural profile internationally through the film festival circuit. However, with the phenomenal global reach of the “Korean Wave” or Hallyu, film is no longer a singular projection of the image of South Korea. Today, television dramas have overtaken films, flooding television and small mobile screens with attractive faces of Korean celebrities. While several studies have made references to key Korean celebrities, namely Lee Young Ae, Rain and Gianna Jun, there have been fewer efforts to trace these celebrities’ trajectories within films and other platforms. This paper will explore how cinema within the Korean Wave phenomenon contributes to the ecology of the Korean Wave and the roles these celebrities play within this eco system.

  • Courtroom Drama with Chinese Characteristics: a Comparative Approach to Legal Process in Chinese Cinema
    Courtroom Drama With Chinese Characteristics: A Comparative Approach to Legal Process in Chinese Cinema Stephen McIntyre* While previous “law and film” scholarship has concentrated mainly on Hollywood films, this article examines legal themes in Chinese cinema. It argues that Chinese films do not simply mimic Western conventions when portraying the courtroom, but draw upon a centuries-old, indigenous tradition of “court case” (gong’an) melodrama. Like Hollywood cinema, gong’an drama seizes upon the dramatic and narrative potential of legal trials. Yet, while Hollywood trial films turn viewers into jurors, pushing them back and forth between the competing stories that emerge from the adversarial process, gong’an drama eschews any recognition of opposing narratives, instead centering on the punishment of decidedly guilty criminals. The moral clarity and punitive sense of justice that characterize gong’an drama are manifest in China’s modern-day legal system and in Chinese cinema. An analysis of Tokyo Trial, a 2006 Chinese film about the post-World War II war crimes trial in Japan, demonstrates the lasting influence of gong’an drama. Although Tokyo Trial resembles Hollywood courtroom drama in many respects, it remains faithful to the gong’an model. This highlights the robustness of China’s native gong’an tradition and the attitudes underlying it. * J.D., Duke University School of Law; M.A., East Asian Studies, Duke University; B.A., Chinese, Brigham Young University.

Abstract The focus of this dissertation is to show how the media of contemporary Korean popular culture, specifically films, are transformed into “hybrid cultural forms” through the practice of genre transformation. Since the early 21st century, South Korean popular culture has been increasingly spreading across the globe. Despite its growing attention and popularity, Korean pop culture has been criticized for its explicit copying of Western culture with no unique cultural identity. Others view the success of Korean media, both its creative mimicry and its critique of the West, as a new hybrid form that offers the opportunity for reassertion of local identity as well as challenging the global hegemony of the West.
