  • Frank Miller's Sin City
    FRANK MILLER’S SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR Production Notes Publicity materials are available at: twcpublicity.com Running Time: 102 mins MPAA Rating: TBD 1 FRANK MILLER’S SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR Production Notes Co-directors Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez reunite to bring Miller's visually stunning "Sin City" graphic novels back to the screen in 3D in FRANK MILLER’S SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR. In a town where justice doesn't prevail, the desperate want vengeance and ruthless murderers find themselves with vigilantes on their heels. Their paths cross in Sin City’s famous Kadie's Club Pecos. The film opens with fan-favorite “Just Another Saturday Night,” when Marv (Mickey Rourke) finds himself in the center of carnage as he tries to remember the preceding events. “The Long, Bad Night” tells the tale of Johnny, a cocky young gambler (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) taking his chances with the biggest villain in Sin City, Senator Roark (Powers Boothe). The central story, Miller’s acclaimed "A Dame To Kill For," features Dwight McCarthy (Josh Brolin) in his final confrontation with the woman of his dreams and nightmares, Ava Lord (Eva Green). “Nancy’s Last Dance" follows Nancy Callahan (Jessica Alba) in the wake of John Hartigan’s (Bruce Willis) selfless suicide. Driven insane by grief and rage, she will stop at nothing to get revenge. 2 RETURNING TO SIN CITY When FRANK MILLER’S SIN CITY opened in April 2005, the film was a critical and global box office success. Breaking new ground, the movie was filmed entirely on green screen and brought Miller’s black and white graphic novels to life.

    Visions of Power: Violence, the Law, and the Post-9/11 Genre Film By Fareed Ismail Ben-Youssef A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Media in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Miryam B. Sas, Chair Professor David J. Cohen Professor Anton Kaes Professor D.A. Miller Summer 2017 1 Abstract Visions of Power: Violence, the Law, and the Post-9/11 Genre Film by Fareed Ismail Ben-Youssef Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Media University of California, Berkeley Professor Miryam B. Sas, Chair My dissertation, Visions of Power, uncovers specific moments where key Hollywood genre films blur the line between perpetrators of violence and its victims, disrupting a post-9/11 public discourse shaped by Manichean divisions. Discordant notes in these films provoke productive estrangement and challenge us to think historically, to see the resonances between this cultural moment and past traumatized moments in US history. The study thereby advances our understanding of American and international politics through its exploration of the narrative production of discourses around a state of emergency and the effects of this storytelling in creating a space of vaguely defined enemies where the parameters of the battlefield are obscured. Recent speeches by US presidents—as when George W. Bush commenced the War on Terror by citing the wanted posters of Old West, or when Barack Obama compared ISIS to the Joker—show how genre modes hold sway in executive discourse. I probe the cross-sections, slippages, and conflicts that exist within the ongoing dialogue between Hollywood entertainment and political discourse in the creation of competing visions of power to frame genre as a contested critical site—one of equal interest to politicians and to critically inclined filmmakers.

Complex characters and intricate details outlined by one person in a single bound volume to be interpreted by whoever reads it. In this sense, the novel is the most intimate form of art that one can imagine because in effect, every reader will have a different interpretation each sentence and syllable. Events, names, places, and characters each invoke a unique feeling or memory based on an individual’s life experiences. This also takes into account the maturity level of the reader. A teenager reading something like Catcher in the Rye will definitely have a different perspective on Holden and the intricacies of it’s elements once he or she is more seasoned on the more grown-up aspects of life.

  • Frank Miller's Sin City
    WHEN MACHO ANGST TURNS INTO VIOLENCE: FRANK MILLER'S SIN CITY NATALIA MARTÍNEZ MARTÍNEZ UNED Frank Miller is a legend in the comic industry, in fact many of his graphic novels have been praised by the critics. He draws himself many of his comic books and he has even directed two movies adapting his Sin City series, composed by the comic books that will be discussed in this article. All these reasons make him a complete and extraordi- nary artist. Miller, as a pioneer of the comics aimed at an adult public, overtly displays sex, more blood, and more violence in his works than it was ever conceivable in the graphic novel world. Part of that violence depicted in his comics is directed against women, as in the case of the Sin City series. In an article called “Violence Against Women” published in the WHO’s webpage, The United Nations define gender violence as “any act of gender-based violence that results in, or is likely to result in, physical, sexual, or mental harm or suffering to women, including threats of such acts, coercion or arbitrary deprivation of liberty, whether occurring in public or in private life” (“Violence Against Women” 2017). Un- fortunately, this is a situation suffered by many women in the world every day. The American psychologist Lenore E. Walker affirmed that “the single most powerful risk marker for becoming a victim of violence is to be a woman.” (1999, 23) This is a very revealing and powerful statement; according to Walker, a woman, just because of her gender, has more chances to become a victim of violence than any man.

Building upon the theory of remediation defined by Jay David Bolter and Richard Grusin, I describe a contemporary facet of the relationship between these two media forms as exemplifying stylistic remediation, or the representation of one medium’s stylistic characteristics within another medium. Through the following chapters, I will investigate the complex and ever evolving formal relationship between these two media forms, which are also experiencing convergence at the levels of the industries which produce them and the customers who consume them. Moreover, I will also offer commentary upon the potential economic future of stylistic remediation and what new hybrid forms of media these trends in form and conglomeration have begun to produce.
