Munich Abstract This is a review of Munich (2005). This film er view is available in Journal of Religion & Film: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol10/iss1/14 Flato: Munich Steven Spielberg's latest film Munich begins with the kidnapping and murder of eleven athletes and coaches from the Israeli Olympic team by a group of Palestinians in 1972. Spielberg interlaces archival video from the live coverage of the crisis into the movie, culminating in anchorman Jim McKay's disconsolate observation, "They're all gone." This sequence establishes the recruitment of Avner (Eric Bana), a Mossad agent and former bodyguard for Prime Minister Golda Meir, to a covert assassination team that crisscrosses Europe over the span of several years. Avner leads a squad of four, including the hesitant Carl (Ciaran Hines), the callous Steve (Daniel Craig), and the befuddled Robert (Mathieu Kassovitz). This allows Spielberg to explore a variety of responses to the moral issues tied to revenge. Echoing the language we heard from the White House post-9/11, Meir ominously declares that the killing of the Israeli athletes "changes everything,” and throughout Munich there are resonances between the past and present-day.

French Culture, French Cinema (In English)
French Culture, French Cinema (in English) Class code CORE-UA9750002/DRLIT-UA9502002 Instructor Details Sam Azulys Email 1: [email protected] Email 2: [email protected] (always include “NYU” in the subject line) Class Details Expressive Culture: Film (in English) M 4 – 7 Room 4.08 Prerequisites This course is destined to students who don’t necessarily have a thorough knowledge in cinema. Class Description This course will allow students to become familiar with the methods and formal aspects of cinema. Students will discover French culture through the prism of cinema by underlining the specific dynamics by which cinema becomes the privileged witness of the profound transformations of mentalities and the upheavals that deeply changed the French society. By putting the films into their social, historical and philosophical context, the students will get to study, across a diverse range of examples, the relation existing between French films and French culture. It deals for example with the formal and thematic relationships among the Avant-garde artistic movements (futurism, cubism, expressionism, surrealism, etc.) and the cinematographic Avant-garde (Buñuel, L’Herbier, Cocteau), those between the cinema of Renoir and classical French theatre (Marivaux, Beaumarchais, Musset), the troubled period of the occupation and the filmmakers who deliberately chose to stay in France to work there (Clouzot, Carné) and the influence of Saint Germain des Prés’s existentialism (Sartre, Camus) on the Nouvelle Vague, etc. The students will thus discover that cinema is a cultural agent that reflects a period all the while produces a critical point view on said period. Also examined are the formal structure of French cinema, its stylistic choices and ways of expression shared with other artistic practices, in order to understand to what extend the « French cultural exception » contributed to its worldwide influence.

The Phenomenological Aesthetics of the French Action Film
Les Sensations fortes: The phenomenological aesthetics of the French action film DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Matthew Alexander Roesch Graduate Program in French and Italian The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Margaret Flinn, Advisor Patrick Bray Dana Renga Copyrighted by Matthew Alexander Roesch 2017 Abstract This dissertation treats les sensations fortes, or “thrills”, that can be accessed through the experience of viewing a French action film. Throughout the last few decades, French cinema has produced an increasing number of “genre” films, a trend that is remarked by the appearance of more generic variety and the increased labeling of these films – as generic variety – in France. Regardless of the critical or even public support for these projects, these films engage in a spectatorial experience that is unique to the action genre. But how do these films accomplish their experiential phenomenology? Starting with the appearance of Luc Besson in the 1980s, and following with the increased hybrid mixing of the genre with other popular genres, as well as the recurrence of sequels in the 2000s and 2010s, action films portray a growing emphasis on the importance of the film experience and its relation to everyday life. Rather than being direct copies of Hollywood or Hong Kong action cinema, French films are uniquely sensational based on their spectacular visuals, their narrative tendencies, and their presentation of the corporeal form. Relying on a phenomenological examination of the action film filtered through the philosophical texts of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Paul Ricoeur, Mikel Dufrenne, and Jean- Luc Marion, in this dissertation I show that French action cinema is pre-eminently concerned with the thrill that comes from the experience, and less concerned with a ii political or ideological commentary on the state of French culture or cinema.

Cinematic Representations of the City
UC Center French Language and Culture Program Courses – Summer 2014 PCC 105. Paris Scenes: Cinematic Representations of the City Prof. Carole Viers-Andronico Lecture contact: [email protected] Wednesday 15h00-17h00 Visits (or Lecture) Office Hours Thursday 15h00-17h00 By appointment COURSE DESCRIPTION The city of Paris has long served as muse to foreign and domestic filmmakers. Cinematic representations have framed and reframed not only how we see and understand many of the ville lumière’s most famous monuments and districts but also how we comprehend aspects of French history and culture. This course, therefore, will take an interdisciplinary approach to cinematic representation by relying on methodologies from comparative literature, philosophies of aesthetics, film studies, history, and urban studies. Throughout the course, students will study the ways in which cinematic representations attribute meaning to monuments and districts. They will analyze how these representations constitute scenes of re-presentation; that is, how they provide interpretations of cultural, historical, and socio-political events. Through a combination of viewings, related readings, and site visits to scene locations, students will engage in discussions about how the meanings of such sites become manifold depending on how they are framed and thus seen/scened. The course will be organized around case studies of both well-known and lesser-known sites, such as the Eiffel Tower, the Montmartre district, and the Latin Quarter district. 4.0 UC quarter units. Suggested subject areas for this course: Film / Comparative Literature / Urban Studies Goals The overriding goal of this course is to provide students with the tools to reflect critically on cinematic representations of Paris as a city in history.

Nourri de modernité euro- péenne, figure du cinéma américain indépendant dans les années 90, à l’instar d’un Jim Jarmush pour la décennie précédente, le cinéaste de Portland, Oregon est un authentique plasticien. Nous sommes heureux de montrer pour la première fois en France ses travaux de photographe et de peintre, et d’établir ainsi des correspon- dances avec ses films. Grand inventeur de dispositifs cinématographiques Elephant( , pour citer le plus connu de ses théorèmes), Gus Van Sant est aussi avide d’expériences commerciales, menées au cœur même de l’industrie (Prête-à-tout, Psychose, Will Hunting ou À la recherche de Forrester), et pour lesquelles il peut déployer toute sa plasticité d’auteur très américain, à la fois modeste et déterminé.

Si le mot date du Moyen Age, il est entré dans le vocabulaire courant bien plus tard; et on a parlé d’abord de « faubourgs «, de périphéries, on allait sur les fortifs, on évitait la « zone «, on dansait dans les guinguettes au bord de la Marne.
