  • Gus Van Sant Regis Dialogue Formatted
    Gus Van Sant Regis Dialogue with Scott Macaulay, 2003 Scott Macaulay: We're here at the Walker Art Center for Regis dialogue with American filmmaker Gus Van Sant. He'll be discussing the unique artistic vision that runs through his entire body of work. Gus was first recognized for a trilogy of films that dealt with street hustlers, Mala Noche, Drugstore Cowboy, My Own Private Idaho. He then went on to experiment with forum and a number of other films including To Die For, Psycho and even Cowgirls Get the Blues. Gus is perhaps best known for his films, Goodwill Hunting and Finding Forrester, but all of his work including his latest film, Gerry, has his own unique touch. We'll be discussing Gus' films today during this Regis dialogue. I'm Scott Macaulay, producer and editor of Filmmaker Magazine. I'll be your guide through Gus' work today in this Regis dialogue. Thanks. Gus Van Sant: Thank you. Scott Macaulay: It's a real pleasure to be here with Gus Van Sant on this retrospective ... Which is called on the road again. I guess there are a lot of different illusions in that title, a lot of very obvious ones because a lot of Gus' movies deal with travel and change and people going different places, both locations within America but also in their lives. But another interesting implication of the title is that this retrospective is occurring on the eve of the release here and also nationwide of Gerry, which is really one of Gus' best and most moving films but it's also yet sort of another new direction for Gus as a filmmaker.

  • Unbecoming Adults: Adolescence and the Technologies of Difference in Post
    Unbecoming Adults: Adolescence and the Technologies of Difference in Post-1960s US Ethnic Literature and Culture DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By James K. Harris, M.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Martin Joseph Ponce, Advisor Dr. Lynn Itagaki Dr. Jian Chen Copyright by James K. Harris 2017 Abstract Adolescence has always been a cultural construction. The designation of a separate space apart from the presumed innocence of childhood and the myths of autonomy and responsibility that come to define adulthood is a surprisingly modern phenomenon. As such, adolescence bears the traces of the ideologies of race, gender, sexuality, and nation that attend so much of the period that calls itself “modernity.” My dissertation asks how writers and artists of color imagine themselves into the archive of coming of age narratives in post-1960s US literature and culture. In thinking about the importance of identity in the period following the advent of nominal civil rights, I offer the “long(er) civil rights movement” as a way of resisting the move to periodize the struggles through which difference has historically accrued meaning in the US nation- state. Each chapter centers around a “technology,” the academy, the body, the entertainment industry, and the internet, which is essential to the formation of adolescent identity in the post-war era, alongside a key term in the lexicon of American culture that accrues added meanings when filtered through the experience of difference.

  • Dear Friends, 'Revolution' This Year Marks the One Hundredth
    Dear Friends, ‘Revolution’ This year marks the one hundredth anniversary of the Russian Revolution, which ended the centuries-old rule of the Russian tsars and ushered in the era of Marxist socialism. To Lenin and the Bolsheviks who instigated it, it signalled the demise of the old order with its outmoded, unwanted religious beliefs, and the unstoppable advance of atheistic socialism. The inspiration for their movement came from the writings of Karl Marx who, as a convinced materialist, maintained that people‟s beliefs were simply the product of their physical environment. If social or economic circumstances were changed, ideas and opinions would alter with them. He reckoned, for example, that the poor only believed in God because of the oppression they suffered, and because they needed an emotional prop of some kind to keep them going. He was convinced that, once the revolution had taken place and a fairer economic order had been established, religious belief would no longer be required and it would simply fade away. “Religion,” he famously wrote, “is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the feelings of a heartless world, just as it is the spirit of unspiritual conditions. It is the opium of the people. The people cannot really be happy until it has been deprived of illusory happiness by the abolition of religion. The demand that the people should shake itself free of illusion as to its own condition is the demand that it should abandon a condition which needs illusion.” Marx‟s concern for social injustice and his condemnation of the Church for its frequent failure to champion the poor need to be heard and taken seriously.
