  • Geschmackspolizei Kopie
    Filmpolitischer Informationsdienst Beitritt oder Boykott? Von Ellen Wietstock Nun hat auch Deutschland eine Filmakademie - am 8. September 2003 wurde sie im Berliner Hotel Adlon ins Leben gerufen. Die Initiatorengruppe um Bernd Eichinger mobilisierte für die Gründungsversammlung rund 100 Filmleute aus allen Sparten, von denen etwa 70 anwe- send waren (siehe dazu die Liste der Gründungsmitglieder auf Seite 2). Diesem Kreis stan- den 400 Filmschaffende gegenüber, die sich in offenen Briefen vor allem gegen die Über- tragung der Prämiengelder des Deutschen Filmpreises an einen Verein aussprachen. In ihren Augen ist diese "Privatisierung" einer staatlichen Auszeichnung unzulässig. Die Unterzeichner der Protestbriefe sehen in der mangelnden Transparenz ein Symptom für die Family & Friends-Haltung des gesamten Unternehmens. Daß die Einladungsliste nach dem Zufallsprinzip zustande gekommen war, gab der gerade zum Akademie-Präsidenten berufene Günter Rohrbach auf der Gründungspressekonferenz denn auch freimütig zu. (Die sicher gut als Präsidentin geeignete Schauspielerin Senta Berger ist keine Filmpreisträgerin, das Gründungsmitglied Catharina Zwerenz weder Filmpreisträgerin noch aktv im Filmgeschäft tätig). Deshalb läßt diese Vorgehensweise nur einen Schluß zu: Bestimmte Kolleginnen und Kollegen wurden bewußt ausgegrenzt. Ohne sie geht es aber nicht. Die Existenz der Deutschen Filmakademie hängt davon ab, inwieweit es ihr gelingt, tatsächlich die Legitimation für die Vergabe der staatlichen Filmpreisgelder zu erwerben. Zwar begrüßte Kulturstaatsministerin Christina Weiss die Gründung, machte aber deutlich, daß eine solche Institution "ein wirklich repräsentatives Gremium" werden muß. "Alle müssen darin eingebunden sein." Um die von Seiten der Politik gestellten Bedingungen zu erfüllen, bleibt dem Verein kaum ein Jahr Zeit. (Die Vergabe des Deutschen Filmpreises 2004 erfolgt noch in der bisherigen Form durch das BKM).

  • THE GERMAN SOCIETY of PENNSYLVANIA Willkommen Bei
    The existing Härtefallregelung (regulation for extreme cases) will remain in force as well. THE GERMAN SOCIETY OF Komödie und Realien PENNSYLVANIA So how does this movie weave the reality of life as a refugee in Germany into the fabric of a comedic film? Diallo the refugee from Nigeria (who was Friday Film Fest Series chosen by the Hartmanns from the local Flüchtlingszentrum) describes with vivid intensity during a visit to a local school how his family was eradicated by the Boko-Haram-butchers. Outside the refugee center we see a container sprayed with a swastika symbol, and the Villa Hartmann becomes the focus of protests by Pegida and Neo-Nazi protests. In the refugee center itself one of the refugees agitates as an ideologist for Is- lamic terrorism only to be arrested by the watchful Munich police. Ironically, these realistic elements do not diminish but rather enhance the overall comedic atmosphere of this movie. When the mother Angelika Hartmann makes the decision to take in a refugee, she does it against the will of her husband Richard, adding to the existing strain of their marriage. With daughter Sophie being an aimless eternal student and son Philipp close to professional burn-out, the family spirals into turbulence and the ensuing twists and turns exacerbate the delightful confusion, setting the stage for a positive ending that debunks many prejudices and anti- immigrant sentiments. Foremost among them is Elyas M’Barek, who plays a colleague of Dr. Hartmann. He is the antithesis of an uneducated, violent Islamic refugee and is instrumental in helping Diallo adjust to German so- ciety and gain social traction through his jogging group.

  • The British War Film, 1939-1980: Culture, History, and Genre
    The British War Film, 1939-1980: Culture, History, and Genre by Kevin M. Flanagan B.A., College of William and Mary, 2006 M.A., North Carolina State University, 2009 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2015 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH KENNETH P. DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Kevin M. Flanagan It was defended on April 15, 2015 and approved by Colin MacCabe, Distinguished Professor, Department of English Adam Lowenstein, Associate Professor, Department of English David Pettersen, Assistant Professor, Department of French and Italian Dissertation Advisor: Lucy Fischer, Distinguished Professor, Department of English ii Copyright © by Kevin M. Flanagan 2015 iii THE BRITISH WAR FILM, 1939-1980: CULTURE, HISTORY, AND GENRE Kevin M. Flanagan, Ph.D. University of Pittsburgh, 2015 This dissertation argues that discussions of war representation that privilege the nationalistic, heroic, and redemptively sacrificial strand of storytelling that dominate popular memory in Britain ignore a whole counter-history of movies that view war as an occasion to critique through devices like humor, irony, and existential alienation. Instead of selling audiences on what Graham Dawson has called “the pleasure culture of war” (a nationally self-serving mode of talking about and profiting from war memory), many texts about war are motivated by other intellectual and ideological factors. Each chapter includes historical context and periodizing arguments about different moments in British cultural history, explores genre trends, and ends with a comparative analysis of representative examples.
