  • Production Notes
    A Film by John Madden Production Notes Synopsis Even the best secret agents carry a debt from a past mission. Rachel Singer must now face up to hers… Filmed on location in Tel Aviv, the U.K., and Budapest, the espionage thriller The Debt is directed by Academy Award nominee John Madden (Shakespeare in Love). The screenplay, by Matthew Vaughn & Jane Goldman and Peter Straughan, is adapted from the 2007 Israeli film Ha-Hov [The Debt]. At the 2011 Beaune International Thriller Film Festival, The Debt was honoured with the Special Police [Jury] Prize. The story begins in 1997, as shocking news reaches retired Mossad secret agents Rachel (played by Academy Award winner Helen Mirren) and Stephan (two-time Academy Award nominee Tom Wilkinson) about their former colleague David (Ciarán Hinds of the upcoming Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy). All three have been venerated for decades by Israel because of the secret mission that they embarked on for their country back in 1965-1966, when the trio (portrayed, respectively, by Jessica Chastain [The Tree of Life, The Help], Marton Csokas [The Lord of the Rings, Dream House], and Sam Worthington [Avatar, Clash of the Titans]) tracked down Nazi war criminal Dieter Vogel (Jesper Christensen of Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace), the feared Surgeon of Birkenau, in East Berlin. While Rachel found herself grappling with romantic feelings during the mission, the net around Vogel was tightened by using her as bait. At great risk, and at considerable personal cost, the team’s mission was accomplished – or was it? The suspense builds in and across two different time periods, with startling action and surprising revelations that compel Rachel to take matters into her own hands.

    THE HERO’S JOURNEY IN MATTHEW VAUGHN’S MOVIE: KICK-ASS Oky Irawan Syahputra1, Teguh Kasprabowo2 Faculty of Language and Cultural Studies, Stikubank University e-mail: [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT Kick-Ass is a superhero movie. The study aimed to find out about the main character hero’s journey patterns and the characters archetype that occurs in this movie. The data of this study is from watching and analyzed the Kick-Ass movie. This study employed Hero’s Journey from Joseph Campbell to find the patterns with the support from Christopher Vogler for the characters archetype. There are the differences between the hero’s journey Campbell and Kick-Ass movie. In this Study the researcher find 9 stages; The Call to Adventure, Supernatural Aid, The Crossing of the First Threshold, Refusal of the Call, The Meeting with the Goddess, Woman as the Temptress, The Belly of the Whale, Apotheosis and The Ultimate Boon. As for the characters archetype that appearing in this movie are; The Hero, Mentor, Ally, Threshold Guardian, Shape shifter, Trickster and Shadow. Keywords: hero, archetypes, hero’s journey, kick-ass film 1. INTRODUCTION A hero is someone who acts bravely out of concern for others even at their own personal risk. They are willing to sacrifice everything without getting a reward. This is the kind of hero that we need. To be a figure that important in this world we live in. To stand up and fights for the right things. It can be argued that the action or behavior ultimately stands as heroic or not in the absence of any social milieu (Howerth 1935; cited in Franco, Blau, & Zimbardo, 2011).

  • Notting Hill and the Reconstruction of “Race” in Britain After 19581
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of East Anglia digital repository “Whatever Community Is, This Is Not It”: Notting Hill and the Reconstruction of “Race” in Britain after 19581 Camilla Schofield, Ph.D, University of East Anglia [email protected] Ben Jones, Ph.D., University of East Anglia ABSTRACT The impact of the 1958 Notting Hill riots tends to figure in histories of the political right, as a galvanizing force for anti-immigrant sentiment—or as radical catalyst in the transnational history of the Black Atlantic. Meanwhile, the generation of black and white social workers and activists who flocked to Notting Hill after the riots have largely been left out of the history of the British left. This article treats Notting Hill after 1958 as an important locale of new progressive thinking and action. It seeks to consider the political work that the idea of “community” did in Notting Hill, allowing us consider how the politics of anti-racism relates in complex ways to the reformulation of progressive politics in postwar Britain. It reveals how black activists came to reappropriate the language of “community” to critique the ameliorative, welfarist approach to anti-racism. It also unearths the forgotten eclectic beginnings of Britain's New Left. By excavating the history of community work and New Left activism “from below,” this article traces the ways in which a motley group of Methodist ministers, Christian Workers, students, social workers, and community leaders tested the limits of liberal paternalism and the “universalism” of the postwar social democratic state.
