  • Emotion Pictures
    Unit 6203 Screen Analysis 3 OzScreen: Constructing Histories EMOTION PICTURES An examination of the ways in which history films emotionalise the past, with particular reference to Phar Lap, Gallipoli and Strikebound A paper 2600 words By David Lowe (3rd Year BA) © 28 March 1996 email: [email protected] EMOTION PICTURES ...1 Filming historical stories is a risky business; commercially, dramatically and culturally. Unlike most written history, the history film is concerned with an emotional journey, as well as an ideological and sociological one. The concerns of history and drama overlap, but do not match, and film’s uneasy balancing act between art and commerce can easily become perilous when history is added to the load. Some believe that only film can “recover the past’s liveliness”.1 Others question whether it is possible to tell historical stories on film without losing “our professional or intellectual souls”.2 Despite the risks, film-makers continually delve into the past as a source of inspiration and subject matter. Australian film-makers have traditionally had a particular interest in historical stories. Our desire to stand alone and establish an independent identity from Britain and the United States led to a spate of films in the 1970s and early 80s which focused almost exclusively on local historical subjects. Phar Lap, Gallipoli and Strikebound were among the most important of these films. Unlike some other examples that come to mind, like Picnic at Hanging Rock and The Man From Snowy River, these three films attempt to deal with undisputed and actual events. The creators of the films took on the difficult task of melding drama and history at a time when the search for an Australian identity was more intense than ever before.
