    ''Americans Don't Want Cowboys to Be Gay:'' Amerykanów, nawet wśród najbardziej liberalnych heteroseksualnych popleczników równouprawnienia gejów ''Brokeback Mountain'' and the Oscars i lesbijek. ______________________ William Glass When Crash (2005) was the surprise best picture winner at the 2006 Oscar ceremony, a variety of explanations were offered for the ("Amerykanie nie chcą kowbojów-gejów". "Brokeback Moutain" upset over the pre-Oscar favorite, Brokeback Mountain (2005). i Oskary) Some suggested a Brokeback backlash occurred; that is, that Brokeback Mountain, which had won critical praise and awards from STRESZCZENIE: Kiedy w 2006 roku Crash zdobył the time of its release and was the highest grossing picture of the five niespodziewanie Oskara za najlepszy film roku, pojawiło się wiele nominated, had worn out its welcome with the Academy voters. prób wyjaśnienia porażki, jaką poniósł przedoskarowy faworyt, Others argued that the Academy got it right: Crash was the superior Brokeback Mountain.

Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/jssw.v9n1a4 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/jssw.v9n1a4 Rethinking Human Essence and Social Relations from Dogville Paulo Alexandre e Castro1 Abstract One of the main reasons why Dogville (2003), by Lars Von Trier became a famous film, was the way it was filmed, that is, the way Lars Von Trier created a totally new aesthetic in filming, by providing a scenario that represents reality. In fact, this is the right word, scenario, but it‟s not just that. With this particular way of filming, Lars Von Trier provides also a particular way of thinking, that is, he ends up reproducing the way of seeing with the imagination: creating presence in the absence, as happens when we remember a deceased relative or when we create artistically. In Dogville there is no room for imagination. In this sense, we argue that this film represents contemporary (alienated) society where everything has its value and ethical / moral values are only manifested paradoxically as a reaction. Dogville becomes also an aesthetic educational project since it provides an understanding of human condition and human nature. For this task we will make use of some major figures from contemporary philosophy and sociology Keywords: Lars Von Trier; Human nature; Subjectivity; Values; Violence; Dogville; Society. 1. Introduction: Lars Von Trier and Dogma95 challenge Making movies is not making beautiful movies.

Hover over the number or scroll to the end of the text to read about what the student has done well in this assignment. Money & Power in Goodfellas A Film Student ENG 225: Introduction to Film Professor Director Stardate 2259.55 Power 2 Money & Power in Goodfellas Martin Scorsese’s film Goodfellas (1990) is a gangster drama that shows the audience what it is like to be a part of the Mafia. This film is mainly told from the point of view of Henry Hill, played by Ray Liotta, who knew as a child that he wanted to be a part of the crime family. This film shows Henry Hill’s “thirst for and rise to power,” which is its major theme (Goodykoontz & Jacobs, 2014, Ch. 4.2, para. 12). The movie Goodfellas shows the power that comes with money, the power of choice, and the power of persuasion, all of which are established through cinematography, acting, costuming, and design. With money comes power. This is shown in “The Long Take” scene in which Henry Hill and his date are walking into the Copacabana nightclub. Scorcese uses a continuous tracking shot to show Henry gladhanding the nightclub staff the resulting respect he is given, not only by the staff of the nightclub, but the other patrons inside. This cinematographic technique portrays Henry Hill as a man of importance. The camera stays low, making him look tall, and stays with him through the back entrance, a hallway, the kitchen, and into the dining room where he is given his own table in front of everyone else.

From this base, students can progress to a deeper understanding of film and the proper in-depth study of cinema. By the end of this course, you will have a deeper sense of the major components of film form and function and also an understanding of the “language” of film. You will write essays which will discuss and analyze several of the films we will study using accurate vocabulary and language relating to cinematic methods and techniques. Just as an author uses literary devices to convey ideas in a story or novel, filmmakers use specific techniques to present their ideas on screen in the world of the film.

  • Here Are Patrick Bet-David's Picks for the Top 10 Movies for Entrepreneurs
    Here are Patrick Bet-David’s picks for the top 10 movies for Entrepreneurs. You may also want to check out the video that this PDF is based on. Enjoy! If you ask my friends that go and watch movies with me, they’d tell you one thing. Sixty percent of the time, I walk out of the movie. I literally get up and walk out of the movie. I don’t know anyone that walks out of movies more than I do, because I don’t like to waste my time watching a movie without a point to it, and you can’t keep my attention if there’s no point. To me, watching a movie is like reading a book for two hours. Give me a message! Move me! Tap into my emotions! I want to FEEL it. I would never walk out on the movies that I talk about in this video. They are worth your time, and if you’re an entrepreneur, each of them has a message for you. 1 Page #10: The Social Network Many of you have probably watched The Social Network. It tells a very, very good story of Mark Zuckerberg who built Facebook, and what he went through when during that time. It demonstrates what you’re capable of building when you put your minds together with other like-minded people. But it also talks about the darker side. Listen here, to learn about some of those things. Another important thing to keep in mind as you watch this movie is that Zuckerberg wasn’t the visionary.

  • Nature and the Feminine in Lars Von Trier's Antichrist
    PARRHESIA NUMBER 13 • 2011 • 177-89 VIOLENT AFFECTS: NATURE AND THE FEMININE IN LARS VON TRIER’S ANTICHRIST Magdalena Zolkos [Of all my films] Antichrist comes closest to a scream. Lars von Trier INTRODUCTION / INVITATION: “THE NATURE OF MY FEARS”1 Lars von Trier’s 2009 film Antichrist, produced by the Danish company Zentropa, tells a story of parental loss, mourning, and despair that follow, and ostensibly result from, the tragic death of a child. The film stars two protagonists, identified by impersonal gendered names as She (Charlotte Gainsbourg) and He (Willem Dafoe). This generic economy of naming suggests that Antichrist, in spite of, or perhaps because of, the eschatological signification of its title, is a story of origins. Antichrist stages a quasi-religious return (within the Abrahamic tradition) to a lapsarian space where the myth of the female agency of the originary transgression,2 and the subsequent establishment of human separateness from nature, are told by von Trier as a story of his own psychic introspection. In the words of Joanne Bourke, professor of history at Birkbeck College known for her work on sexual violence and on history of fear and hatred, Antichrist is a re-telling of the ancient Abrahamic mythology framed as a question “what is to become of humanity once it discovers it has been expelled from Eden and that Satan is in us.”3 This mythological trope grapples with the other-than-human presence, as a demonic or animalistic trace, found at the very core of the human.4 At the premiere of Antichrist at the 2009

  • Dogme 95 and the Representation of Reality Zsolt Gyenge Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design, Budapest (Hungary) Email: [email protected]
    Acta Univ. Sapientiae, Film and Media Studies, 1 (2009) 6979 Illusions of Reality and Fiction or the Desired Reality of Fiction: Dogme 95 and the Representation of Reality Zsolt Gyenge Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design, Budapest (Hungary) email: [email protected] Abstract. The paper identies a two channel strategy developed by the authors of the Danish Dogme lms having as goal the generation of the illusion of reality. The rst channel is aiming at the visual layer of the movies, which shows a rm decision to break with the style of the traditional ction lms. The second channel of this strategy is concerned with the narration of the lms. In this regard Dogme contrary to what had been declared in the Vow of Chastity chose one of the most popular lm and TV genres: melodrama. On the one hand Dogme lms created a highly self-reexive visual style and then they combined it on the other hand with a genre which calls for extreme audience identication. Documentarism and deeply conventionalized stories are put together in most Dogme lms to create the reality of ction. Movie is not an illusion states the Manifesto,1 and thus it makes us clear that the movement tries to say something about one of the major themes of cinema and lm theory (and of visual communication in general): the representation of reality. It is well known that the initiators of Dogme 952 1The two founding documents of the Dogme 95 are the Manifesto and the Vow of Chastity. Until recently they were to be found on the ocial website (www.dogme95.dk) of the movement, which in February 2009, during the nal revision of this paper, became unavailable.
