  • Filmic Farewell to David Gulpilil Is 'His Last Dance, His Last
    ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Filmic farewell to David Gulpilil is ‘his last dance, his last song’ By Paul Byrnes May 26, 2021 My Name is Gulpilil ★★★★ Rated M, 101 minutes, in cinemas This one had me at hello. In the first shot, David Gulpilil, in winter coat and mittens, walks down a country road. The camera is about 50 metres behind him and his gait is slow. Then we see why: he’s following an emu, which was obscured by his body. When the actor stops and turns back up the road, the emu does too. They move in step, as if in a duet. He just smiles, as if to say ‘of course we are’. David Gulpilil in a scene from My Name is Gulpilil. “This is my film,” he says. My Name is Gulpilil is the actor’s fond farewell, his valediction, his living obituary. At about 67 − he’s not quite sure of his age − he has lung cancer, and a number of other ailments. They will take him out soon, he tells us a number of times. He seems to want to say he’s OK with that: he has had a charmed life as a dancer, actor, singer, storyteller. “My father taught me how to dance and how to sing, and how to relate to the didgeridoo and the click stick, and the rhythm of the song of culture, the song of the ceremony … I’m the greatest dancer in the world.” He pauses for effect − “Just for me, though …” The film comes from people he has worked with for more than 20 years.

  • To Download the BALANDA and the BARK CANOES
    The Balanda and the Bark Canoes A documentary about making Ten Canoes May, 2005 Central Arnhem Land, Australia ‘We are making a movie. The story is their story, those that live on this land, in their language, and set a long time before the coming of the Balanda, as we white people are known. For the people of the Arafura Swamp, this film is an opportunity, maybe a last chance to hold on to the old ways. For all of us, the challenges are unexpected, the task beyond anything imagined. For me, it is the most difficult film I have made, in the most foreign land I've been to...and it is Australia.’ – Rolf de Heer Directors’ Q & A Q: What was the inspiration behind this documentary? And/or how did it come about? The documentary is a companion to the feature film Ten Canoes. Ten Canoes is an in-language indigenous tragi-comedy set in the historical (pre-white settlement) and mythical past of the Ganalbingu (Yolngu) people. It is a cautionary tale of love, lust and revenge gone wrong. Although financed, the film spent three years in the development phase. There were a number of reasons why but one of them included consolidating the early rapport and trust between Rolf, his team and the community. During this time, Rolf began visiting the communities regularly and would return with new sets of working challenges and with stories full of adventure. It became apparent that a compelling documentary could be made in its own right. Rolf approached SBS Independent, investors in the feature film Ten Canoes, about documenting the already crazy yet exhilarating journey.

  • David Gulpilil, AM
    David Gulpilil, AM Born 1953, Gulparil, near Ramingining, Northern Territory. Lives Darwin, N.T. David Gulpilil’s full name is David Gulpilil Ridjimiraril Dalaithngu. Gulpilil is also spelt Gulparil, which is the name of his Country near Ramingining, central Arnhem Land, N.T. When, as a seventeen year-old, David Gulpilil lit up the cinema screen in the film, Walkabout, he did more than play a role. The performance was so strong, so imbued with a new type of graceful naturalism, that it re-defined perceptions of Aboriginality, especially in the field of screen acting. Over the next decade, David became the iconic Aboriginal actor of his generation, paving the way in the resurgence of the Australian film industry for more parts to be written for Aboriginal people, for more Aboriginal stories to be told. His charismatic, engaging and unforgettable performances in films like Storm Boy (1976, dir. Henri Safran), The Last Wave (1977, dir. Peter Weir) and Crocodile Dundee (1986, dir. Peter Faiman) helped bring Aboriginality into the mainstream of the screen arts. In his later work, including Rabbit-Proof Fence (2002, dir. Philip Noyce), The Tracker (2002, dir. Rolf de Heer), Australia (2008, dir. Baz Luhrmann) and the soon to be released Charlie's Country (2013, dir. Rolf de Heer), Gulpilil has brought tremendous dignity to the depiction of what it is to be Aboriginal. Through his art he has brought an incalculable amount of self-esteem to his community. Since the early 1970s, Gulpilil has earned more than 30 film credits, and performed alongside Dennis Hopper, Jack Thompson, Miles Davis, Nicole Kidman, Hugh Jackman, Kenneth Branagh, William Hurt, Richard Chamberlain, Guy Pearce, Paul Hogan, and Ernie Dingo, under acclaimed directors such as Peter Weir, Baz Lurhman, Philip Noyce, Wim Wenders and Rolf de Heer.

  • Fernando A. Blanco Wittenberg University & John Petrus the Ohio
    REVISTA DE CRÍTICA LITERARIA LATINOAMERICANA Año XXXVII, No 73. Lima-Boston, 1er semestre de 2011, pp. 307-331 ARGENTINIAN QUEER MATER. DEL BILDUNGSROMAN URBANO A LA ROAD MOVIE RURAL: INFANCIA Y JUVENTUD POST-CORRALITO EN LA OBRA DE LUCÍA PUENZO Fernando A. Blanco Wittenberg University & John Petrus The Ohio State University Resumen En este artículo analizamos la obra visual y literaria de la directora y narradora argentina Lucía Puenzo en su excepcionalidad estética y ética. Mediante un análisis de dos de sus películas, XXY y El niño pez, basadas en un cuento y una novela, discutimos la apropiación de géneros canónicos de ambas tradiciones –Bildungsroman y road movie– como estrategia de instalación generacional. Por medio del recurso a estos modelos formativos de la subjetividad, Puenzo logra posicionar alternativas identitarias refractarias a la normalización heterosexual de lo nacional-popular en el campo cultural argentino. Trabajando desde una clave de interpretación diferente de la de los relatos de memoria en la post democracia neoliberal, Puenzo sitúa problemáticas adolescentes en el entre- cruzamiento de modos y maneras excéntricos de habitar lo social-global en el capitalismo tardío. Sus filmes, de este modo, abren la posibilidad de reflexionar sobre el derecho a ciudadanías culturales, étnicas y sexuales de grupos minoritarios. Palabras clave: Puenzo, Bildungsroman, road movie, sujeto queer, parodia, memoria, Argentina, literatura, cine. Abstract In this article we analyze the exceptional ethics and aesthetics of the visual and literary work of the Argentine writer-director Lucía Puenzo. Through an analysis of two of her films, XXY and The Fish Child, based on a short story and a novel, respectively, we discuss her appropriation of canonical genres–the Bildungsroman and the road movie–as a strategy of generational displacement.

  • Western Criticism, Labelling Practice and Self-Orientalised East Asian Films
    Travelling Films: Western Criticism, Labelling Practice and Self-Orientalised East Asian Films Goldsmiths College University of London PhD thesis (Cultural Studies) Ji Yeon Lee Abstract This thesis analyses western criticism, labelling practices and the politics of European international film festivals. In particular, this thesis focuses on the impact of western criticism on East Asian films as they attempt to travel to the west and when they travel back to their home countries. This thesis draws on the critical arguments by Edward Said's Orientalism: Western Conceptions of the Orient (1978) and self-Orientalism, as articulated by Rey Chow, which is developed upon Mary Louise Pratt's conceptual tools such as 'contact zone' and 'autoethnography'. This thesis deals with three East Asian directors: Kitano Takeshi (Japanese director), Zhang Yimou (Chinese director) and 1m Kwon-Taek (Korean director). Dealing with Japanese, Chinese and Korean cinema is designed to show different historical and cultural configurations in which each cinema draws western attention. This thesis also illuminates different ways each cinema is appropriated and articulated in the west. This thesis scrutinises how three directors from the region have responded to this Orientalist discourse and investigates the unequal power relationship that controls the international circulation of films. Each director's response largely depends on the particular national and historical contexts of each country and each national cinema. The processes that characterise films' travelling are interrelated: the western conception of Japanese, Chinese or Korean cinema draws upon western Orientalism, but is at the same time corroborated by directors' responses. Through self-Orientalism, these directors, as 'Orientals', participate in forming and confirming the premises of western Orientalism.

  • Miriam Ross (University of Glasgow)
    eSharp Issue 11: Social Engagement, Empowerment and Change Grupo Chaski’s Microcines: Engaging the Spectator Miriam Ross (University of Glasgow) Introduction Latin American cinema has commonly been looked at within a radical framework. From the middle of the twentieth century, filmmakers, journalists and scholars have celebrated a type of filmmaking that contains revolutionary ideals, anti-neocolonial stances and attempts at social reform (see for example Chanan, 1997; Fusco, 1987; Pick, 1993). 1 The peak of this radical filmmaking came about in the late 1960s and 1970s with the emergence of the New Latin American Cinema movement and the concurrent, but more globally orientated, Third Cinema movement (Armes, 1987; Martin, 1997). Filmmakers articulated their practices in opposition to a Hollywood centred ‘first cinema’ which they denounced for re- articulating a bourgeois world view (Solanas & Getino, 1997, p.42). They also attempted to move away from a European, auteur driven ‘second cinema’ because they felt it had reached its limit of possible expression outside the capitalist ‘system’. Third Cinema was meant to offer a new cinematic language that would be based in the material circumstances of post-colonial countries as well as activate a new type of egalitarian society. Towards the end of the twentieth century these movements began to disperse and there is no longer the sense of a continent-wide radical cinema project (Newman, 1993; Oubinña, 2004).
