  • Brief Report on the Implementation of the FCTC's Core Articles In
    Brief report on the implementation of the FCTC’s core articles in Cambodia up to March 2012 I. BACKGROUND Cambodia ratified the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) on 15 November 2005. The draft Law on Tobacco Control was developed in 2003, even before the country ratified the FCTC, by the Ministry of Health (MoH), and reviewed several times by the Economic, Social, Cultural Council (ECOSOCC), and the Council of Jurists (CoJ) of the Council of Ministers (CoM). The last modified version was completed in late 2010, and has waited for re-submission to the CoM by the MoH. The National Center for Health Promotion (NCHP) is the technical department responsible for tobacco control under the MoH where tobacco control policies are required to move up from this basic level. However, NCHP has used several excuses to delay the re-submission of the draft law. The director of the NCHP quoted by Phnom Penh Post that the CoM needs data on mortality rate related to tobacco use in Cambodia to endorse the draft law. That is why he needs sometime to conduct a research to response to the need. When WHO released the report on mortality attributed to tobacco in mid 2010, then he lobbied the Minister of Health to wait for him to conduct a research, this time, on economic cost of tobacco before re-submission the draft law. It is known that it takes at least three to five years to complete such a research if funding exists. WHO and NGOs are very active in pushing forward the draft law.

  • Schwanebeck, Wieland
    This is a pre-copyedited, author-produced version of an article accepted for publication in Adaptation following peer review. The version of re- cord: Schwanebeck, Wieland. “Mr Ripley’s Renaissance: Notes on an Adaptable Character.” Adaptation, vol.6, no. 3, Oxford Academic, Dec. 2013, pp. 355–64 is available online at:https://academic.oup.com/adaptation/article/6/3/355/2583851, doi:10.1093/adaptation/apt017. Wieland Schwanebeck Mr. Ripley’s Renaissance: Notes on an Adaptable Character “I’m a creation. I’m a gifted improviser. I lack your conscience and, when I was young, that troubled me. It no longer does. I don't worry about being caught because I don't think anyone is watching. […] The one thing I know is that we’re constantly being born.” - John Malkovich in Ripley’s Game (2003) This speech, given by Tom Ripley (John Malkovich) midway through Liliana Cavani’s adaptation of Patricia Highsmith’s novel, Ripley’s Game (2003), puts forward the idea that fictional heroes enjoy the privilege of living multiple lives, and nobody’s fate illustrates this better than Tom Ripley’s own. Ripley’s renaissance on screen during the past decade not only saw him reenter the public consciousness, but also presented the viewers with a unique case of a serialized (anti-)hero: Unlike James Bond, with whose cinematic career Ripley shares some interesting similarities,1 Ripley’s on-screen embodiments hardly show any stable parameters, presenting the audience with a new version of masculinity each time an actor took on the character. No screenwriter, director or actor has ever worked on the character more than once, and none of the Ripley films have been located during the same period, in the same setting, or genre, though all of them resort to Highsmith’s constellation of an American impostor who is taken with European culture, a kind of “sociopath Jay Gatsby” (Oates 47) who never ages and who usually manages to get away with his horrendous crimes.

  • GSC Films: S-Z
    GSC Films: S-Z Saboteur 1942 Alfred Hitchcock 3.0 Robert Cummings, Patricia Lane as not so charismatic love interest, Otto Kruger as rather dull villain (although something of prefigure of James Mason’s very suave villain in ‘NNW’), Norman Lloyd who makes impression as rather melancholy saboteur, especially when he is hanging by his sleeve in Statue of Liberty sequence. One of lesser Hitchcock products, done on loan out from Selznick for Universal. Suffers from lackluster cast (Cummings does not have acting weight to make us care for his character or to make us believe that he is going to all that trouble to find the real saboteur), and an often inconsistent story line that provides opportunity for interesting set pieces – the circus freaks, the high society fund-raising dance; and of course the final famous Statue of Liberty sequence (vertigo impression with the two characters perched high on the finger of the statue, the suspense generated by the slow tearing of the sleeve seam, and the scary fall when the sleeve tears off – Lloyd rotating slowly and screaming as he recedes from Cummings’ view). Many scenes are obviously done on the cheap – anything with the trucks, the home of Kruger, riding a taxi through New York. Some of the scenes are very flat – the kindly blind hermit (riff on the hermit in ‘Frankenstein?’), Kruger’s affection for his grandchild around the swimming pool in his Highway 395 ranch home, the meeting with the bad guys in the Soda City scene next to Hoover Dam. The encounter with the circus freaks (Siamese twins who don’t get along, the bearded lady whose beard is in curlers, the militaristic midget who wants to turn the couple in, etc.) is amusing and piquant (perhaps the scene was written by Dorothy Parker?), but it doesn’t seem to relate to anything.

  • The Shoah on Screen – Representing Crimes Against Humanity Big Screen, Film-Makers Generally Have to Address the Key Question of Realism
    Mémoi In attempting to portray the Holocaust and crimes against humanity on the The Shoah on screen – representing crimes against humanity big screen, film-makers generally have to address the key question of realism. This is both an ethical and an artistic issue. The full range of approaches has emember been adopted, covering documentaries and fiction, historical reconstructions such as Steven Spielberg’s Schindler’s List, depicting reality in all its details, and more symbolic films such as Roberto Benigni’s Life is beautiful. Some films have been very controversial, and it is important to understand why. Is cinema the best way of informing the younger generations about what moire took place, or should this perhaps be left, for example, to CD-Roms, videos Memoi or archive collections? What is the difference between these and the cinema as an art form? Is it possible to inform and appeal to the emotions without being explicit? Is emotion itself, though often very intense, not ambivalent? These are the questions addressed by this book which sets out to show that the cinema, a major art form today, cannot merely depict the horrors of concentration camps but must also nurture greater sensitivity among increas- Mémoire ingly younger audiences, inured by the many images of violence conveyed in the media. ireRemem moireRem The Shoah on screen – www.coe.int Representing crimes The Council of Europe has 47 member states, covering virtually the entire continent of Europe.

  • The Culture of Queers
    THE CULTURE OF QUEERS For around a hundred years up to the Stonewall riots, the word for gay men was ‘queers’. From screaming queens to sensitive vampires and sad young men, and from pulp novels and pornography to the films of Fassbinder, The Culture of Queers explores the history of queer arts and media. Richard Dyer traces the contours of queer culture, examining the differ- ences and continuities with the gay culture which succeeded it. Opening with a discussion of the very concept of ‘queers’, he asks what it means to speak of a sexual grouping having a culture and addresses issues such as gay attitudes to women and the notion of camp. Dyer explores a range of queer culture, from key topics such as fashion and vampires to genres like film noir and the heritage film, and stars such as Charles Hawtrey (outrageous star of the Carry On films) and Rock Hudson. Offering a grounded historical approach to the cultural implications of queerness, The Culture of Queers both insists on the negative cultural con- sequences of the oppression of homosexual men and offers a celebration of queer resistance. Richard Dyer is Professor of Film Studies at The University of Warwick. He is the author of Stars (1979), Now You See It: Studies in Lesbian and Gay Film (Routledge 1990), The Matter of Images (Routledge 1993) and White (Routledge 1997).
