  • The Dark Past Keeps Returning: Gender Themes in Neo-Noir by Heather Fireman
    The Dark Past Keeps Returning: Gender Themes in Neo-Noir by Heather Fireman "Films are full of good things which really ought to be invented all over again. Again and again. Invented - not repeated. The good things should be found - found - in that precious spirit of the first time out, and images discovered - not referred to.... Sure, everything's been done.... Hell, everything had all been done when I started" -Orson Welles (Naremore 219). Film noir, an enigmatic and compelling mode, can and has been resurrected in many movies in recent years. So-called "neo-noirs" evoke the look, style, mood, or even just the feel of classic noir. Having sprung from a particular moment in history and resonating with the mentality of its audiences, noir should also be considered in terms of a context, which was vital to its ability to create meaning for its original audiences. We can never know exactly how those audiences viewed the noirs of the 1940s and 50s, but modern audiences obviously view them differently, in contexts "far removed from the ones for which they were originally intended" (Naremore 261). These films externalized fears and anxieties of American society of the time, generating a dark feeling or mood to accompany its visual style. But is a noir "feeling" historically bound? What does this mean for neo-noirs? Contemporary America has distinctive features that set it apart from the past. Even though neo-noir films may borrow generic conventions of classic noir, the "language" of noir is used to express anxieties belonging to modern times.

  • Film Adaptation, Alternative Cinema And
    FILM ADAPTATION, ALTERNATIVE CINEMA AND LYNCHIAN MOMENTS OF TRANSPOSITION By NICK VAN VUGT, B.A. Supervisor: Professor Robert Hamilton A Major Research Paper Submitted to the Department of Communication Studies and Multimedia in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Communication and New Media McMaster University ©Copyright by Nick van Vugt, August 2011 van Vugt 1 Film adaptation is the transfer of a written work to film. It is recognized as a type of derivative work. Whether adhering strictly to the source material or interpreting concepts derived from the original work, adaptation are necessarily extensions or interpretations of the original story. These interpretations can augment or detract from the original work. This paper will explore common variations of adaptations found in contemporary cinema. When referring to adaptations, this paper will use the broad definition – “a work in one medium that derives its impulse as well as varying number of its elements from a work in a different medium” (Konigsberg 6). This definition can extend to a multitude of interpreted work, but for the purposes of this paper we will be looking at adaptation in film: working with source material and producing and/or directing a film based on a work of literature. This paper will analyze adaptations within Hollywood films using examples by the Coen brothers’ No Country for Old Men (2007) and David Lynch’s works The Elephant Man (1980), Wild at Heart (1990) and Lost Highway (1997). This paper will discuss the films Memento (2000) and Adaptation (2002) for their interpretation of source material through alternative cinema.

  • A Historical Analysis of the Films of Andrei Tarkovsky in Relation to the Post-Thaw Soviet Moment
    A Historical Analysis of the Films of Andrei Tarkovsky in Relation to the Post-Thaw Soviet Moment Gus Helbock Haverford College Class of 2017 History Thesis Professor Linda Gerstein Professor James Krippner April 21, 2017 Helbock i Acknowledgements First, I would like to thank the professors at Haverford College who guided me through my educational experience, especially in the History Department. Specifically, I am grateful for the help that Professor Linda Gerstein and Professor James Krippner provided as my first reader/advisor and second reader, respectively. The advice they gave me and the historical insight they provided were integral in the completion of this thesis. I would also like to thank my family and friends who have given me love and support throughout the entirety of the thesis process. Helbock ii Abstract During the latter half of the twentieth century, Andrei Tarkovsky received arguably more critical admiration for his films than any Soviet director. During his filmmaking career, the Soviet Union experienced a tumultuous socio-cultural, as well as political, moment. After the death of Stalin, the Khrushchev Thaw of the late 1950s and early 1960s allowed for significantly more freedom of expression. It was at this time that Tarkovsky’s career began. However, through the 1960s and 1970s, a reactionary period in Soviet politics led to a return of stringent censorship, making Tarkovsky’s filmmaking process difficult. In the early 1980s, Tarkovsky emigrated to Western Europe, where he completed his final two films before his death in 1986. Due to his contentious relationship with the Soviet state, this thesis will attempt to analyze Tarkovsky and assess his relationship to the Russian intelligentsia and the dissident movements of the late twentieth century, as well as his relationship with spirituality and religion.

  • Women's Experimental Cinema
    FILM STUDIES/WOMEN’S STUDIES BLAETZ, Women’s Experimental Cinema provides lively introductions to the work of fifteen avant- ROBIN BLAETZ, garde women filmmakers, some of whom worked as early as the 1950s and many of whom editor editor are still working today. In each essay in this collection, a leading film scholar considers a single filmmaker, supplying biographical information, analyzing various influences on her Experimental Cinema Women’s work, examining the development of her corpus, and interpreting a significant number of individual films. The essays rescue the work of critically neglected but influential women filmmakers for teaching, further study, and, hopefully, restoration and preservation. Just as importantly, they enrich the understanding of feminism in cinema and expand the ter- rain of film history, particularly the history of the American avant-garde. The essays highlight the diversity in these filmmakers’ forms and methods, covering topics such as how Marie Menken used film as a way to rethink the transition from ab- stract expressionism to Pop Art in the 1950s and 1960s, how Barbara Rubin both objecti- fied the body and investigated the filmic apparatus that enabled that objectification in her film Christmas on Earth (1963), and how Cheryl Dunye uses film to explore her own identity as a black lesbian artist. At the same time, the essays reveal commonalities, in- cluding a tendency toward documentary rather than fiction and a commitment to nonhi- erarchical, collaborative production practices. The volume’s final essay focuses explicitly on teaching women’s experimental films, addressing logistical concerns (how to acquire the films and secure proper viewing spaces) and extending the range of the book by sug- gesting alternative films for classroom use.

  • New Wave Cinema”: a Reflection of the Sixth- Generation Auteurs and Their Productions
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Apollo Cambridge Journal of China Studies 3 China’s “New Wave Cinema”: A Reflection of the Sixth- Generation Auteurs and Their Productions Xiaoping WANG Huaqiao University, China Abstract: Whether or not the sixth-generation directors have disappeared (or whether or not they have ever existed) is moot. However, we can ponder the following questions: In what circumstances did the group of auteurs emerge? What kind of social reality was transcribed, projected, and articulated in the movies they produced? The cinema that this generation created has been compared to Italian Neorealism and French New Wave, and to a certain extent could be regarded as China’s cinematic “new wave”. What are the similarities and the differences between these different cinematic movements? And, finally, by which conditions did China’s “New Wave Cinema” more or less reluctantly disintegrate and disperse? Let us begin our survey with a contextualization or better, historicization of this idiosyncratic cinematic phenomenon. Key Words: New Wave Cinema, Globalization, Sixth-Generation Auteur Volume 14, No. 3 4 For quite a few days in October 2015, many readers in China were allured by the cover of the new issue of a popular Chinese journal China Newsweek (中国新闻周刊）, which appeared in numerous newspaper stands across the streets and lanes. In the picture of the cover, the famed Chinese auteur Jia Zhangke 贾樟柯 (1970- ), hugged by his wife (who is also his most-favorite actress) Zhao Tao 赵涛（1978-）, looks self-assuredly at the camera and implicitly the readers.

By consi- dering classical film-theoretical texts and their filmic objects in the light of vitalist ideas percolating in scientific and philosophical texts of the time, Cine- matic Vitalism reveals the formation of a modernist, experimental and cinema- tic strand of vitalism in and around the movie theater. The book focuses on the key concepts rhythm, environment, mood, and development to show how the cinematic vitalism articulated by film theorists and filmmakers maps out connections among human beings, mi- lieus, and technologies that continue to structure our understanding of film.
