  • THE BUCKET LIST (Adapted from the Session Developed by Peter Bowden)
    THE BUCKET LIST (adapted from the session developed by Peter Bowden) OPENING WORDS & CHALICE LIGHTING: To Risk To laugh is to risk appearing the fool. To weep is to risk appearing sentimental. To reach out for another is to risk exposing our true self. To place our ideas – our dreams – before the crowd is to risk loss. To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk despair. To try is to risk failure. To live is to risk dying. #658, Singing the Living Tradition PURPOSE: We come together to build connections and to talk about what deeply matters. CHECK IN: What you share may be about your physical or spiritual health, cares or concerns for loved ones, issues you are facing. What are you leaving behind to be here today? READING OF GROUP COVENANT FOCUS: The Bucket List Each person in the group speaks uninterrupted; if time remains, general response and conversation are welcome. Background for this session: In the movie “The Bucket List”, a billionaire played by Jack Nicholson and a mechanic played by Morgan Freeman befriend each other in the hospital as they discover they each have only 6 months to a year to live. Freeman has a “bucket list” – things he wants to do before he “kicks the bucket”. Nicholson offers to finance the adventure and the two of them head off to tackle a joint “bucket list”. Questions for reflection: In this movie the two main characters are in a unique situation – they know when they will die, more or less, and they have the means to live their final days as they wish.

  • Reviews and Their Uses As Affective Texts 96
    Reviews and Their Uses as Affective Texts 96 Journal Title: Free Associations: Psychoanalysis and Culture, Media, Groups Politics Number 61, May 2011 ISSN: 2047-0622 URL: http://www.freeassociations.org.uk REVIEWS AND THEIR USES AS AFFECTIVE TEXTS: VIEWING AND RE-VIEWING TAXI DRIVER (M. SCORSESE, US. 1976)1 CANDIDA YATES Abstract: This article examines the significance of film reviews and their relationship to issues of masculinity, spectatorship and history. The paper uses the film Taxi Driver (M. Scorsese, US.1976) as a case study to discuss the affective, psychosocial significance of film reviews and their relationship to the fantasies of film texts and their mode of address. It argues that fantasies of male jealousy evoked by the film’s mode of address are also present in the film reviews, suggesting the inter-relatedness of the psychosocial fantasies of masculine jealousy across those spheres of analysis. Taxi Driver was first released in 1976, and was re-issued in 1996 for the cinema and on DVD. The paper includes discussion of film reviews from both periods, providing insights into contemporary fantasies of masculinity, and the mediation of memory as constructed through those reviews. The enduring appeal of the film Taxi Driver as a ‘classic’ film, and its troubled protagonist ‘Travis’ are examined in the light of discussions regarding the continuing instabilities of Western masculinities and the alleged cultural backlash against feminism. Key Words: Nostalgia, fantasy, masculinities, film review, Taxi Driver Introduction This article focuses on the importance of thinking about film reviews in the context of history and their relationship to issues of gender and spectatorship.

  • 1 Evolving Authorship, Developing Contexts: 'Life Lessons'
    Notes 1 Evolving Authorship, Developing Contexts: ‘Life Lessons’ 1. This trajectory finds its seminal outlining in Caughie (1981a), being variously replicated in, for example, Lapsley and Westlake (1988: 105–28), Stoddart (1995), Crofts (1998), Gerstner (2003), Staiger (2003) and Wexman (2003). 2. Compare the oft-quoted words of Sarris: ‘The art of the cinema … is not so much what as how …. Auteur criticism is a reaction against sociological criticism that enthroned the what against the how …. The whole point of a meaningful style is that it unifies the what and the how into a personal state- ment’ (1968: 36). 3. For a fuller discussion of the conception of film authorship here described, see Grist (2000: 1–9). 4. While for this book New Hollywood Cinema properly refers only to this phase of filmmaking, the term has been used by some to designate ‘either something diametrically opposed to’ such filmmaking, ‘or some- thing inclusive of but much larger than it’ (Smith, M. 1998: 11). For the most influential alternative position regarding what he calls ‘the New Hollywood’, see Schatz (1993). For further discussion of the debates sur- rounding New Hollywood Cinema, see Kramer (1998), King (2002), Neale (2006) and King (2007). 5. ‘Star image’ is a concept coined by Richard Dyer in relation to film stars, but it can be extended to other filmmaking personnel. To wit: ‘A star image is made out of media texts that can be grouped together as promotion, publicity, films and commentaries/criticism’ (1979: 68). 6. See, for example, Grant (2000), or the conception of ‘post-auteurism’ out- lined and critically demonstrated in Verhoeven (2009).

  • Silence of the Lambs Clear Oscar Favorite
    The Harris Poll \ 7 For release: Sunday AM, March 29, 1992 1992 #w ISSN 0895-7983 SILENCE OF THE LAMBS CLEAR OSCAR FAVORITE by Humphrey Taylor "Silence of the Lambs" is clearly the favorite among this year's crop of Oscar nominations, according to this special Harris Poll conducted just prior to the awards ceremonies on March 30th. This movie was picked as best picture, and Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster were selected as best actor and best actress for their roles as the leads in Silence of the Lambs. The public was asked who should win the Oscar only from these three categories, and its choices are definitely reflective of the popularity of the movies nominated. "Silence of the Lambs was picked by 28 percent of the public, closely followed by "Beauty and the Beast" at 24 percent. These were the only two movies which were nominated for best picture that were also among the top fifteen box office draws in 1991.
