  • The Mind-Game Film Thomas Elsaesser
    9781405168625_4_001.qxd 8/10/08 11:58 AM Page 13 1 The Mind-Game Film Thomas Elsaesser Playing Games In December 2006, Lars von Trier’s The Boss of It All was released. The film is a comedy about the head of an IT company hiring a failed actor to play the “boss of it all,” in order to cover up a sell-out. Von Trier announced that there were a number of (“five to seven”) out-of-place objects scattered throughout, called Lookeys: “For the casual observer, [they are] just a glitch or a mistake. For the initiated, [they are] a riddle to be solved. All Lookeys can be decoded by a system that is unique. [. .] It’s a basic mind game, played with movies” (in Brown 2006). Von Trier went on to offer a prize to the first spectator to spot all the Lookeys and uncover the rules by which they were generated. “Mind-game, played with movies” fits quite well a group of films I found myself increasingly intrigued by, not only because of their often weird details and the fact that they are brain-teasers as well as fun to watch, but also because they seemed to cross the usual boundaries of mainstream Hollywood, independent, auteur film and international art cinema. I also realized I was not alone: while the films I have in mind generally attract minority audiences, their appeal manifests itself as a “cult” following. Spectators can get passionately involved in the worlds that the films cre- ate – they study the characters’ inner lives and back-stories and become experts in the minutiae of a scene, or adept at explaining the improbabil- ity of an event.

  • Film: the Case of Being John Malkovich Martin Barker, University of Aberystwyth, UK
    The Pleasures of Watching an "Off-beat" Film: the Case of Being John Malkovich Martin Barker, University of Aberystwyth, UK It's a real thinking film. And you sort of ponder on a lot of things, you think ooh I wonder if that is possible, and what would you do -- 'cos it starts off as such a peculiar film with that 7½th floor and you think this is going to be really funny all the way through and it's not, it's extremely dark. And an awful lot of undercurrents to it, and quite sinister and … it's actually quite depressing if you stop and think about it. [Emma, Interview 15] M: Last question of all. Try to put into words the kind of pleasure the film gave you overall, both at the time you were watching and now when you sit and think about it. J: Erm. I felt free somehow and very "oof"! [sound of sharp intake of breath] and um, it felt like you know those wheels, you know in a funfair, something like that when I left, very "woah-oah" [wobbling and physical instability]. [Javita, Interview 9] Hollywood in the 1990s was a complicated place, and source of films. As well as the tent- pole summer and Christmas blockbusters, and the array of genre or mixed-genre films, through its finance houses and distribution channels also came an important sequence of "independent" films -- films often characterised by twisted narratives of various kinds. Building in different ways on the achievements of Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs (1992) and Pulp Fiction (1994), all the following (although not all might count as "independents") were significant success stories: The Usual Suspects (1995), The Sixth Sense (1999), American Beauty (1999), Magnolia (1999), The Blair Witch Project (1999), Memento (2000), Vanilla Sky (2001), Adaptation (2002), and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004).

On Designation of North Korea as a State Sponsor of CyberTerrorism Justin L. Koplow* I. INTRODUCTION There are ample reasons to be wary of labeling an event an act of "cyberterrorism." For too long the term has been employed as both a dodge and a hustle; the former by those who minimize the importance of investing in cybersecurity until confronted with a "cyber 9/11" and the latter by those fear-mongering beyond all reasonable limits to obtain enormous sums of se- curity dollars., While clearly one must watch his wallet either way when "cyberterrorism" is invoked, what is less clear is the meaning of the term, itself. Indeed, although coined some thirty years ago, cyberterrorism has many definitions, which means it really has no single accepted definition. The basics seem clear enough-use of computer networks to perpetrate harm and incite terror-but the devil is in the details.
