  • Improvisation and Birdman; Or, the Unexpected Virtue of Irony1
    Improvisation and Birdman; or, the Unexpected Virtue of Irony1 Mark Kaethler Leading up to the 87th Academy Awards, reporters launched a critique on the Oscars for only nominating white actors. Headlines included The Huffington Post’s “Why It Should Bother Everyone That The Oscars Are So White,” The Guardian’s “Oscars whitewash: why have 2015’s red carpets been so overwhelmingly white?”, TIME magazine’s “Almost All The Oscar Nominees Are White,” and US Magazine’s “Oscars 2015 Nominations: Only White Actors Received Academy Award Nods and the Internet Is Outraged,” to name a few. The International Business Times went so far as to provide an infographic in their piece, “Oscars 2015 Infographic: How White Are the 87th Academy Awards?” Even Oscar host of that year, Neil Patrick Harris, remarked upon this racism early on in the show by making the following joke: “Today we honor Hollywood’s best and whitest. Sorry, brightest” (qtd. in THR staff). It is ironic in itself that Alejandro González Iñárritu’s satire of Hollywood, superhero culture, and the unbearable whiteness that proliferates them went on to win best director, best cinematography, best screenplay, and best picture, but there is a further irony embedded in a film that mocks its white cast’s desperate efforts to receive recognition, often labelling them “children” for this selfish desire. As Samantha, daughter to Riggan (Birdman’s antihero), puts it to her father in her wonderful monologue lambasting the egotism of celebrity culture: Riggan is adapting Raymond Carver’s work for the stage “for 1000 old, rich, white people” in a desperate effort to regain publicity after his fifteen minutes of fame in the early ’90s when he played the superhero Birdman.

  • Academy Awards
    Analysis of the digital conversation for the 2018 ACADEMY AWARDS March, 2018 CONTEXT ACADEMY AWARDS, 2018 On March 4th, 2018, we had the 90th Oscar Ceremony, a prize given by the AMPAS to the crème of the crop in movies, recognizing their excellence in the industries’ professionals, and is considered the greatest honor in movies worldwide. 4 THE AWARDS: THE PRIDE OF MEXICO Lately, it has become common to see Mexicans participating of the Oscars. During Oscar’s 86, 87 & 88, a Mexican took 2 statues, both as best director & best movie. This is why this year it is not surprising to see Mexico’s participation, however, we had never seen such a Mexican delivery as this one. Last year, the current president of the US, Donald Trump. While being sworn in said he would put up a wall between the US and Mexico so as to avoid immigration by illegal aliens from Lat Am; stemming from this fact and others, such as the renegotiation of NAFTA the relationship between countries has suffered. This situation has generated a friction between countries, yet, “The Academy” has shown to be against these remarks and has done so in every ceremony appealing to equality and inclusion for all cultures, preferences and genders. 5 DONALD TRUMP VS. MÉXICO After the 87th Academy awards, when Mexican national “Alejandro González Iñarritu” was awarded with 3 Oscars for his film “Birdman”, current US president “Donald Trump” tweeted a series of messages of disapproval: 6 THE MOST MEXICAN ACADEMY AWARDS On the 90th Academy Awards Mexico was more present than ever: “Coco” a Disney Pixar film centered on the Mexican The shape of water, written and directed by tradition of the day of the dead was nominated filmmaker Guillermo del Toro was nominated and awarded as best animated movie & best to 14 awards of which it got 4.

  • Waterways Film List
    Water/Ways Film List This film resource list was assembled to help you research and develop programming around the themes of the WATER/WAYS exhibition. Work with your local library, a movie theater, campus/community film clubs to host films and film discussions in conjunction with the exhibition. This list is not meant to be exhaustive or even all-encompassing – it will simply get you started. A quick search of the library card catalogue or internet will reveal numerous titles and lists compiled by experts, special interest groups and film buffs. Host series specific to your region or introduce new themes to your community. All titles are available on DVD unless otherwise specified. See children’s book list for some of the favorite animated short films. Many popular films have blogs, on-line talks, discussion ideas and classroom curriculum associated with the titles. Host sites should check with their state humanities council for recent Council- funded or produced documentaries on regional issues. 20,000 Leagues under the Sea. 1954. Adventure, Drama, Family. Not Rated. 127 minutes. Based on the 1870 classic science fiction novel by Jules Verne, this is the story of the fictional Captain Nemo (James Mason) and his submarine, Nautilus, and an epic undersea exploration. The oceans during the late 1860’s are no longer safe; many ships have been lost. Sailors have returned to port with stories of a vicious narwhal (a giant whale with a long horn) which sinks their ships. A naturalist, Professor Pierre Aronnax (Paul Lukas), his assistant, Conseil (Peter Lorre), and a professional whaler, Ned Land (Kirk Douglas), join an US expedition which attempts to unravel the mystery.

Tutkimuksessa mitataan ajallisesti, kuinka paljon afroamerikkalaiset ja valkoiset amerikkalaiset puhuvat näissä elokuvissa. Tutkimus on ajankohtainen, sillä viime vuosina Yhdysvaltain elokuva-akatemiaa on kritisoitu siitä, miten vähän afroamerikkalaisia ja muihin etnisiin vähemmistöihin kuuluvia on palkittu Oscar-palkinnoilla. Tutkimuksen hypoteesi on, että valkoiset amerikkalaiset puhuvat afroamerikkalaisia enemmän, vaikka tutkimuksen aineisto koostuu afroamerikkalaisista kertovista elokuvista. Taustateoriana on afroamerikkalaisten asema vähemmistönä Yhdysvalloissa sekä median ja elokuvateollisuuden
