  • APARAJITO (THE UNVANQUISHED) 1956 Satyajit Ray
    HUMANITIES INSTITUTE Stuart Blackburn, Ph.D. APARAJITO (THE UNVANQUISHED) 1956 Satyajit Ray Bengali language OVERVIEW Aparajito is the second part of the Apu trilogy, based on the novels by Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay. The first part (Pather Panchali) concludes with Apu (aged about six or seven) and his parents leaving their village in Bengal. This second part traces the story of Apu’s growth from a school boy to young man at college in Calcutta (with two different actors playing him in those two stages of life). Since his father dies early on, the core of the story is the heart-rending relationship between Apu and his mother. As with Pather Panchali, there is pathos with two key deaths, but there is also hope for Apu’s future. The movie is structured in three sections, moving from the city to the village and back to the city, and each one represents a crucial stage in the development of Apu as a young man. CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE Within India, Aparajito did not achieve the same success as the first section of the trilogy (Pather Panchali). One reason for this was that Ray deliberately darkened the mood, and deviated from the source- novel, by showing the complexity of the mother-son relationship, which is arguably the cornerstone of Indian society. Instead of being filled with pure devotion to one’s mother, Apu is indirectly, though not intentionally, responsible for her death. Over time, however, Indian audiences have come to agree with international critics, that this is another Ray masterpiece. Although not at poetic as Pather Panchali, it has an edge as it charts the progress of its hero, like a classic coming-of- age novel.

  • It's a Woman's World: Almodóvar's Fighting Girls Vs. the Struggles Of
    It’s a Woman’s World: Almodóvar’s Fighting Girls vs. the Struggles of the 90s Casey Watson Marshall University Spanish Capstone Watson 2 Pedro Almodóvar is a well-known director that centers his films around his home country of Spain. Almodóvar was one of the heads of the arts movement called La Movida Madrileña. Dr. Mark Allinson wrote the book A Spanish Labyrinth: Films of Pedro Almodóvar, which analyzes Almodóvar’s background and breaks down his films, “Pedro Almodóvar symbolized free and democratic Spain – as its chronicler and as its agent provocateur…” (Allinson 3). Almodóvar has been seen as a provocateur for his shock-filled and controversial films. His films have been seen as a starter of a movement of liberating Spain from its oppressed past and a look into the dark sides of the world. Almodóvar used his film, All about My Mother to fight against the oppression of women and the LGBTQ community from Spain’s history and to bring forth the struggles that were faced in the 1990s. The oppression of these groups is rooted in Spain’s history that goes back to the coup d’état of the Republic and the dictatorship of Franco. The Republic, 1931-1939, was a golden age of for women in Spain. “According to the historian Mirta Núñez (2004), the Republic prompted women to have and seek an autonomous presence in the public sphere, a presence not subordinated to men. It pushed them to seek and find paid employment in order to make a living on their own, and it also tried to instill equality in early education” (Ayerra 247).

  • The Use of Rachmaninov's Second Piano Concerto in the Film Brief
    Soundtrack to a Love Story: The Use of Rachmaninov’s Second Piano Concerto In the Film Brief Encounter Sean O’Connor MHL 252 April 22, 2013 Soundtrack to a Love Story 1 Classic FM, an independent radio station in the United Kingdom, has held a poll each Easter weekend since 1996 where listeners can vote on the top 300 most popular works of classical music. In 2013, Sergei Rachmaninov’s Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor filled the number-one spot for the third year in a row. However, when BBC News first published an online article about this in April 2011, the headline did not mention the composition’s actual title. Instead, it referred to the concerto as the “Brief Encounter theme”1. Rather than being known as a concerto by Rachmaninov, many listeners in the United Kingdom recognize the music as the score prominently used in the classic British motion picture Brief Encounter (1945). How is it that so many listeners associate the music with this film rather than as arguably Rachmaninov’s most celebrated work? To determine the reason, listeners must critically analyze the concerto and the film together to find a unifying emotion through recurring themes. This analysis will do just that, examining each movement and where excerpts from those movements appear in the film. That analysis must begin, however, with background information on both works. Today, Rachmaninov’s Second Piano Concerto is considered one of the finest musical compositions of the late romantic period, as well as, according to the poll mentioned earlier, one of the most popular pieces of “classical music” around the world.

  • Bicycle Thieves
    BICYCLE THIEVES Vittorio De Sica Sub : Film Studies (FE 3) By : Farah Faisal 2018-2021 Vittorio De Sica • Italian director and actor, a leading figure in the neorealistmovement. • Four of the films he directed won Academy Awards: Sciuscià and Bicycle Thieves(honorary), while Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow and Il giardino dei Finzi Contini won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. • Bicycle Thieves helped establish the permanent Best Foreign Film Award. These two films are considered part of the canon of classic cinema.Bicycle Thieves was cited by Turner Classic Movies as one of the 15 most influential films in cinema history.[ Analysis • The setting of this movie takes place in post-war Rome, where economic struggles are commonplace. • The film clearly contains many elements of the Classical Hollywood Narrative (the ending being an important exception), and it makes excellent use of film form, mise-en-scene, and cinematography to tell the story in a compelling way. • The film follows Antonio Ricci, the main character, during his search for his stolen bicycle. • The film focuses on the main character, Antonio Ricci, and his son, Bruno, throughout. Antonio’s main goal is to get a job, but it quickly changes into the main plot of the movie: to locate his stolen bicycle so that he can return to work. • The film progresses in a logical, linear fashion, having no major lapses in time. In addition, viewers are taken on an emotional journey, feeling the frustration and desperation of Antonio as his search continues. • While the film meets many of the characteristics of the Classical Hollywood Narrative, there was one important difference: There was no happy ending in this film.

  • Stanley Kubrick's 18Th Century
    Stanley Kubrick’s 18th Century: Painting in Motion and Barry Lyndon as an Enlightenment Gallery Alysse Peery Abstract The only period piece by famed Stanley Kubrick, Barry Lyndon, was a 1975 box office flop, as well as the director’s magnum opus. Perhaps one of the most sumptuous and exquisite examples of cinematography to date, this picaresque film effectively recreates the Age of the Enlightenment not merely through facts or events, but in visual aesthetics. Like exploring the past in a museum exhibit, the film has a painterly quality harkening back to the old masters. The major artistic movements that reigned throughout the setting of the story dominate the manner in which Barry Lyndon tells its tale with Kubrick’s legendary eye for detail. Through visual understanding, the once obscure novel by William Makepeace Thackeray becomes a captivating window into the past in a manner similar to the paintings it emulates. In 1975, the famed and monumental director Stanley Kubrick released his one and only box-office flop. A film described as a “coffee table film”, it was his only period piece, based on an obscure novel by William Makepeace Thackeray (Patterson). Ironically, his most forgotten work is now considered his magnum opus by critics, and a complete masterwork of cinematography (BFI, “Art”). A remarkable example of the historical costume drama, it enchants the viewer in a meticulously crafted vision of the Georgian Era. Stanley Kubrick’s film Barry Lyndon encapsulates the painting, aesthetics, and overall feel of the 18th century in such a manner to transform the film into a sort of gallery of period art and society.
