Nostalgia, Nationalism and Notability: the Success of Skyfall
Nostalgia, Nationalism and Notability: The Success of Skyfall SARAH KELLEY, University of Bristol ABSTRACT 2012 saw the release of what has since been branded ‘the most successful British film to date’: Skyfall broke box office records by making £94 million in the first 40 days of its release. The positive reception from film critics would have undoubtedly gone some way to attracting patrons to its cinema run, however, the overwhelming commercial success of Skyfall indicates that there were more hooks at play here, amongst the promotional campaign for the film. This article argues that strong themes of nostalgia, nationalism and notability (of the cast and crew), present throughout the marketing and preview literature for Skyfall, played a significant part in generating audience interest for the film. Through textual analysis of a variety of artefacts circulated in anticipation of the film's release, this article aims to explore how these three themes engaged with the audience and helped to ensure a successful box office run for Skyfall. KEYWORDS Analysis, film, promotion, Skyfall, success. Introduction ‘And we’re back’: the words used by an enthralled Mark Kermode (2012) in his review of the most recent instalment in the Bond movie franchise, Skyfall (Sam Mendes, 2012). Despite the commercial success of Skyfall's predecessor, Quantum of Solace (Marc Forster, 2008), the negative response it received from reviewers, who critiqued it for a lack strong themes and identity, meant that the latest Bond instalment was in danger of losing its audience. In contrast to the previous film (which Kermode dubbed ‘Question of Sport’ in mockery of its rather forgettable title), the producers of Skyfall needed to give the cinema-going public a good reason to pay to see their new attempt.

Two steps forward, one step back. Yes to the objective, but no to the cost. Inconsistency in the extreme. The reduction in the budget for “Swiss Review” on the initiative of the FDFA is pain- ful.

Makers of 'World War Z' Pay Tribute To
Press Release – August 2011 A HOLLYWOOD SEAL OF APPROVAL FOR FALMOUTH FILMING: MAKERS OF ‘WORLD WAR Z’ PAY TRIBUTE TO THE SOUTH CORNISH PORT TOWN Over £2.5m generated for the local economy… Officials from one of the world‟s largest film studios have praised Falmouth after the town hosted the filming of scenes for a major multi-million pound Hollywood production. Paramount Pictures spent two weeks at the start of August on location at Falmouth Docks as part of the making of apocalyptic zombie thriller World War Z – which stars Brad Pitt, Lost‟s Matthew Fox and several other high profile actors and actresses. Having been approached by Paramount less than two months prior to the shoot, the Falmouth Business Improvement District (BID), Falmouth Town Management, A&P (which operates Falmouth Docks), the harbour authorities and several other local organisations and businesses all worked together to ensure promotional, logistical, safety and security measures were in place to meet the tight production deadlines. The filming itself took place in and around the harbour and several hundred local people were involved as extras and assistants to the main crew. Based out of a temporary headquarters on the outskirts of Falmouth, the extras were transported onto set daily with the majority of them getting the chance to experience a behind- the-scenes view of some of Hollywood‟s most prestigious industry figures at work, including Oscar-winning cinematographer Robert Richardson, whose credits include Kill Bill, Casino, JFK and Platoon and Director Marc Forster (Quantum of Solace and The Kite Runner). “The people in Falmouth and Cornwall were incredibly eager to get involved and we had a massive response to our calls for extras, helpers and additional crew members,” said Jeff Taylor, 2nd Assistant Director from Paramount Pictures.

The Critical-Industrial Practices of Contemporary Horror Cinema
Off-Screen Scares: The Critical-Industrial Practices of Contemporary Horror Cinema A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Joseph F Tompkins IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Richard Leppert, Adviser January 2013 © Joseph F Tompkins, 2013 Acknowledgements I would like to extend my thanks to the many friends, colleagues, teachers, and family members who provided the necessary support and advice to usher me through both the dissertation writing process and my time as a graduate student. I am grateful to the members of my dissertation committee: Mary Vavrus, Gil Rodman, John Mowitt and Gary Thomas, for their lasting guidance, scholarly advice, and critical feedback. In particular, this project was hatched in Mary Vavrus’s Political Economy of Media seminar, and for that, I’m especially indebted. Also, to Gary Thomas, who taught me, among other things, the power of good, clean prose as well as the radical possibilities of making the classroom into a vitalizing, “heterotopian” space—a rampart against the “mechanical encrustation on the living.” I would also like to convey my sincerest appreciation to my mentor, Richard Leppert, who, since my earliest days as an undergraduate, has been a source of both professional guidance and companionship. Richard is my model—as an educator and a friend. I would also like to thank Jochen Schulte-Sasse, Robin Brown, Cesare Casarino, Liz Kotz, Keya Ganguly, Timothy Brennan, Siobhan Craig, and Laurie Ouellette for their sage advice during my graduate studies. Many friends and colleagues provided me intellectual and emotional support throughout the years: Mathew Stoddard, Tony Nadler, Alice Leppert, Manny Wessels, Mark Martinez, Doyle “Mickey” Greene, Kathie Smith, and Eleanor McGough.

Socio-Political Influence on the Ideologies of Daniel Craig's Bond Films: the Power That Lies Within
Socio-Political Influence on the Ideologies of Daniel Craig's Bond Films: The Power That Lies Within Sarah Kelley, University of Bristol, UK The Asian Conference on Media and Mass Communication 2015 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract James Bond is arguably one of the widest-reaching, longest-standing and most influential film franchises of our time. In this sense it can also be seen as a source of great power, a medium by which certain ideologies can be conveyed to many people. When it comes to deciphering these ideologies and their origins, much as been written about the influence of the Cold War on the ideas and themes contained within the earlier Bond films. However, the socio-political backdrop for the Daniel Craig era has been rather different so how might this have effected its ideologies? Craig’s films are interesting to look at in this regard as they have been particularly sensitive to socio-political shifts even within the actor’s tenure. It can be argued that contextual factors such as the Anglo-American War on Terror and the London 2012 Olympics have contributed to a shift in the representation of Bond’s national identity between Casino Royale and Skyfall and, most recently, Spectre represents another set of values and ideas that can be linked with the relinquished interest in Britain post-Olympics, and growing fears surrounding ISIS and public surveillance. This paper attempts to map some of the ideas and themes conveyed in Craig’s Bond films to possible influences from their socio-political contexts, with a particular concentration on Skyfall and Spectre.

Romanticising the Writer
Meeuwis, 4141318/1 Meeuwis, 4141318/2 Abstract This thesis explores the theme of authorship in two biographical films: Saving Mr Banks (2004) and Finding Neverland (2013). The starting point of this thesis was the question of how filmmakers capture the seemingly inaccessible process of a literary imagination at work. This concept was elaborated to incorporate the representation of authorship in more general terms. This thesis analyses Finding Neverland and Saving Mr Banks to explore how these films represent authorship and visualise the writing process, but also how these films depict two famous authors of English children’s literature: P.L. Travers as the author of Mary Poppins in Saving Mr Banks, and J.M. Barrie as the author of Peter Pan in Finding Neverland. The research question of this thesis is: how do Finding Neverland (2004) and Saving Mr Banks (2013) represent literary authorship through depicting the figure of the author and the creation of their work(s)? At the heart of this thesis is how these films are both a celebration of authorship and a subversion of it. Keywords: Authorship, Biopics, Life Writing, Cultural afterlife, Film Adaptation, Saving Mr Banks, Finding Neverland.
