En el ámbito estrictamente universitario, di mis primeros pasos hacia el trabajo de investigación que hoy les presento en la Universidad Pompeu Fabra, donde cursé, entre las calles Balmes y Ramon Trias Fargas, la licenciatura en Humanidades. El hado o mi más discreta voluntad quisieron que iniciara los cursos de doctorado en la Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona, donde hoy concluyo felizmente un camino repleto de encuentros. Entre la gente que he encontrado están aquellos que apenas cruzaron un amable saludo conmigo y aquellos otros que hicieron un alto en su camino y conversaron, apaciblemente, con el modesto autor de estas líneas. A todos ellos les agradezco cuanto me ofrecieron y confío en haber podido ofrecerles yo, a mi vez, algo más que hueros e intrascendentes vocablos o, como escribiera el gran bardo inglés, palabras, palabras, palabras,... Entre aquellos que me ayudaron a hacer camino se encuentra en lugar destacado el profesor Javier Antón Pelayo que siempre me atendió y escuchó serenamente mis propuestas, por muy extrañas que resultaran.

  • What Killed Australian Cinema & Why Is the Bloody Corpse Still Moving?
    What Killed Australian Cinema & Why is the Bloody Corpse Still Moving? A Thesis Submitted By Jacob Zvi for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Faculty of Health, Arts & Design, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne © Jacob Zvi 2019 Swinburne University of Technology All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. II Abstract In 2004, annual Australian viewership of Australian cinema, regularly averaging below 5%, reached an all-time low of 1.3%. Considering Australia ranks among the top nations in both screens and cinema attendance per capita, and that Australians’ biggest cultural consumption is screen products and multi-media equipment, suggests that Australians love cinema, but refrain from watching their own. Why? During its golden period, 1970-1988, Australian cinema was operating under combined private and government investment, and responsible for critical and commercial successes. However, over the past thirty years, 1988-2018, due to the detrimental role of government film agencies played in binding Australian cinema to government funding, Australian films are perceived as under-developed, low budget, and depressing. Out of hundreds of films produced, and investment of billions of dollars, only a dozen managed to recoup their budget. The thesis demonstrates how ‘Australian national cinema’ discourse helped funding bodies consolidate their power. Australian filmmaking is defined by three ongoing and unresolved frictions: one external and two internal. Friction I debates Australian cinema vs. Australian audience, rejecting Australian cinema’s output, resulting in Frictions II and III, which respectively debate two industry questions: what content is produced? arthouse vs.

    1 The Water Diviner Reviewed by Garry Victor Hill The Water Diviner. Produced by Troy Lum, Andrew Mason and Keith Rodger. Directed by Russell Crowe. Screenplay by Andrew Anastasios and Andrew Knight. Based on the book by Sarah McGuire. Photography by Andrew Lesnie. Music by David Hirshfelder. Length: 111 minutes. A Hopscotch Feature. Warner Brothers/Universal distribution. Cinematic Release December 2014. Rated R for violence Rating ********* 90% Available on DVD. All images taken from the public domain using Google’s requirements. CAST Joshua Connor: Russell Crowe Ayshe: Olga Kurylenko Major Hasan: Yilmaz Erdoğan Sergeant Jemal: Cem Yilmaz Orhan: Dylan Georgiades Lieutenant Colonel Cyril Hughes: Jai Courtney Eliza Connor: Jaqueline McKenzie Arthur 2 Connor: Ryan Corr Henry Connor: Ben O’Toole Edward Connor: James Fraser Fatma: Megan Gale Captain James Brindley: Daniel Wylie Father Macintyre: Damon Herriman Omer: Steve Bastoni From the first scenes this emerges as a welcomingly different film. Lines of tired, pensive Turkish soldiers, clothed in motley, ragged uniforms, prepare to charge the enemy trenches. The stereotypical images of Middle Eastern soldiers, all glinting eyes as they cheerfully leap forward to kill, does not exist here: they are just weary and fearful men defending their homeland. When they do charge the trenches they are at first puzzled as the trenches are empty: then to their initial credulity they see the Allied ships sailing off. As they run up the rise the images of dirty, muddy trenches give way to a bright blue sea under a cloudless sky. Laughter and cheers replace their sadness. After living in a state of extaordinary tension and miserable expectations of death and more suffering, they find that life can also give exuberant joy.

  • The Paul Hogan Story
    Coming to HOGES THE PAUL HOGAN STORY From Seven and FremantleMedia Australia (FMA) comes HOGES: The Paul Hogan story. An almost accidental supernova of raw comedic talent exploding onto the entertainment scene; first Australia, then the world. The story of how a married-at-18 Sydney Harbour Bridge rigger with five kids entered a TV talent contest on a dare from his work-mates to become a household name and an Oscar-nominated superstar. Embraced by all Australians and soon known simply as “Hoges,” he is joined on his meteoric journey by lifelong friend, producer and sidekick John “Strop” Cornell. Together, they first make Australians laugh, then proud with one of the most successful tourism campaigns in history selling Aussie hospitality to the world. This, with the runaway success of Crocodile Dundee, the highest US-grossing foreign film ever in its day, cements Hogan’s legacy. HOGES explores the factors which shaped this success – and at what cost success might have come. It entwines the story of his amazing journey with that of his close family life, of his two great loves, the pain of divorce, his struggle with the intense scrutiny of life in the public eye, but also of his enduring friendship with Cornell and the rollercoaster ride of their careers. FMA’s Jo Porter and Seven’s Julie McGauran are Executive Producers, Kevin Carlin (Molly, Wentworth) is Co-Producer and Director, Brett Popplewell is Producer and the script is by Keith Thompson (The Sapphires) and Marieke Hardy (Packed To The Rafters, The Family Law). The Hoges Story PART ONE PART TWO Poolside at Granville baths, a young Paul Hogan cracks jokes and pashes While the success of Crocodile Dundee catapults Hoges onto the world Noelene, his childhood sweetheart.
