  • Brown University Presents Il Cinema Ritrovato,Film Review
    Film Review: Investigation Of A Citizen Above Suspicion (1970) To follow up my previous piece about the great films showing at Il Cinema Ritrovato next week, I am reviewing another film that will be shown during the festival: Investigation Of A Citizen Above Suspicion, a fascinating, but somewhat forgotten thriller that won the best foreign film Oscar in 1971. Investigation… concerns a police detective who kills his girlfriend and leaves plenty of evidence behind to prove that he is indeed “above suspicion.” Even after the initial crime he goes out of his way to implicate himself and exonerate other suspects while slowly mentally unraveling due to the stress of not being caught. All of this is set to a backdrop of leftist protestors and widespread government spying, which is legitimized by the conservative government’s fear of the liberal left. Ultimately an expertly crafted satire, Investigation… is equal parts comedy, giallo and poliziotteschi, or for those who are unfamiliar with Italian cinema, comedy, murder mystery and investigation thriller. The writing is complex and intriguing while the acting is pitch perfect throughout, even though the tone of the film shifts from comedy to taught suspense. Fans of Italian cinema will certainly recognize two of the film’s stars Gian Maria Volonté (For A Few Dollars More, A Fistful Of Dollars) and Florinda Bolkan (A Lizard In A Woman’s Skin, Don’t Torture A Duckling). And while we’re on the subject of recognition, the score to this film was composed by none other than Ennio Moricone and is certainly one of the most memorable scores of his long and varied career.

  • Sedih Sampai Buta Blindness, Modernity and Tradition in Malay films of the 1950S and 1960S
    TIMOTHY P. BARNARD Sedih sampai buta Blindness, modernity and tradition in Malay films of the 1950s and 1960s In the 1962 film Ibu mertuaku (My mother-in-law) writer-director-actor P. Ramlee presents a horrifying tale of a married couple whose happiness is destroyed through the machinations of an arrogant parent.1 Ramlee plays Kassim Selamat, a musician who falls in love with, and marries, Sabariah (played by Sarimah), a Singaporean Malay who has lived a comfortable life in a luxurious home with all of the accoutrements of a modern lifestyle. Her mother (Nyonya Mansur, played by Nak Dara), however, disowns her daughter on her wedding day for marrying a musician. The honeymoon- ers move to Penang, where they live in a rented room underneath a house (traditional Malay houses are built on stilts), having become poor due to the wife’s request that Kassim give up his music career. When Sabariah becomes pregnant, Nyonya Mansur invites her back to Singapore for the birth. Nyonya Mansur eventually sends a telegram to Kassim claiming that Sabariah and the child died during childbirth. When Sabariah fails to hear from her husband – Nyonya Mansur has intercepted the letters Sabariah sends – she believes that Kassim has abandoned her. In Penang Kassim is so distraught at the news of the death of his wife and son that he becomes catatonic for several months. His sadness leaves him blind, and not for the last time in the film. During the golden age of Malay cinema, lasting from the late 1940s until 1965, over 250 films were made.

  • Disability, Literature, Genre: Representation and Affect in Contemporary Fiction REPRESENTATIONS: H E a LT H , DI SA BI L I T Y, CULTURE and SOCIETY
    Disability, Literature, Genre: Representation and Affect in Contemporary Fiction REPRESENTATIONS: H E A LT H , DI SA BI L I T Y, CULTURE AND SOCIETY Series Editor Stuart Murray, University of Leeds Robert McRuer, George Washington University This series provides a ground-breaking and innovative selection of titles that showcase the newest interdisciplinary research on the cultural representations of health and disability in the contemporary social world. Bringing together both subjects and working methods from literary studies, film and cultural studies, medicine and sociology, ‘Representations’ is scholarly and accessible, addressed to researchers across a number of academic disciplines, and prac- titioners and members of the public with interests in issues of public health. The key term in the series will be representations. Public interest in ques- tions of health and disability has never been stronger, and as a consequence cultural forms across a range of media currently produce a never-ending stream of narratives and images that both reflect this interest and generate its forms. The crucial value of the series is that it brings the skilled study of cultural narratives and images to bear on such contemporary medical concerns. It offers and responds to new research paradigms that advance understanding at a scholarly level of the interaction between medicine, culture and society; it also has a strong commitment to public concerns surrounding such issues, and maintains a tone and point of address that seek to engage a general audience.

    Classified by Genre: Rhetorical Genrefication in Cinema By © 2019 Carl Joseph Swanson M.A., Saint Louis University, 2013 B.L.S., University of Missouri-St. Louis, 2010 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Film and Media Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chair: Catherine Preston Co-Chair: Joshua Miner Michael Baskett Ron Wilson Amy Devitt Date Defended: 26 April 2019 ii The dissertation committee for Carl Joseph Swanson certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Classified by Genre: Rhetorical Genrefication in Cinema Chair: Catherine Preston Co-Chair: Joshua Miner Date Approved: 26 April 2019 iii Abstract This dissertation argues for a rethinking and expansion of film genre theory. As the variety of media exhibition platforms expands and as discourse about films permeates a greater number of communication media, the use of generic terms has never been more multiform or observable. Fundamental problems in the very conception of film genre have yet to be addressed adequately, and film genre study has carried on despite its untenable theoretical footing. Synthesizing pragmatic genre theory, constructivist film theory, Bourdieusian fan studies, and rhetorical genre studies, the dissertation aims to work through the radical implications of pragmatic genre theory and account for genres role in interpretation, evaluation, and rhetorical framing as part of broader, recurring social activities. This model rejects textualist and realist foundations for film genre; only pragmatic genre use can serve as a foundation for understanding film genres. From this perspective, the concept of genre is reconstructed according to its interpretive and rhetorical functions rather than a priori assumptions about the text or transtextual structures.

  • Technofantasies in a Neo-Victorian Retrofuture
    University of Alberta The Steampunk Aesthetic: Technofantasies in a Neo-Victorian Retrofuture by Mike Dieter Perschon A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Comparative Literature © Mike Dieter Perschon Fall 2012 Edmonton, Alberta Permission is hereby granted to the University of Alberta Libraries to reproduce single copies of this thesis and to lend or sell such copies for private, scholarly or scientific research purposes only.

Dedicated to Jenica, Gunnar, and Dacy Abstract Despite its growing popularity in books, film, games, fashion, and décor, a suitable definition for steampunk remains elusive. Debates in online forums seek to arrive at a cogent definition, ranging from narrowly restricting and exclusionary definitions, to uselessly inclusive indefinitions. The difficulty in defining steampunk stems from the evolution of the term as a literary sub-genre of science fiction (SF) to a sub-culture of Goth fashion, Do-It-Yourself (DIY) arts and crafts movements, and more recently, as ideological counter-culture. Accordingly, defining steampunk unilaterally is challenged by what aspect of steampunk culture is being defined.
