  • Million Dollar Baby"
    2020 International Conference on Economics, Education and Social Research (ICEESR 2020) Appreciate the Shaping of Female Images in Sports Films Based on the "Million Dollar Baby" Du Huanran Macau University of Science and Technology, Faculty of Humanities and Arts Macau 999078 China Keywords: Sports film; "Million Dollar Baby"; Female images; Shaping Abstract: Typical characters are indispensable aesthetic elements in film and television texts. The persistent and tough-girl image makes the movie "Million Dollar Baby" win the 77th Academy Award for Best Picture. The warm story between Maggie and Frankie is different from the general sports film, but interprets a new type of teacher-student relationship. As the director of the film said, "This is not a real boxing story, but a story about love. An old man, devastated by the loss of his father-daughter relationship, finds a young girl who makes him feel like a father again". Maggie's appearance broke the perfect female image in the traditional American film and overturned the weak appearance of women. The confidence and persistence revealed between Maggie's words and deeds won the unanimous praise of the audience, thus making an excellent sports film. 1. Introduction The Oscar-winning movie, "Million Dollar Baby", has been labelled "sports film", "violence", "inspirational", "love" and "chasing dreams". The film expresses multi-level and multi-faceted contents, including sports competition, belief, dignity, dream, family affection, friendship and other diversified contents. The main line of the story tells the story of Maggie, a young female boxer in her early 30s, who overcomes many difficulties and obstacles, realizes her boxing dream with the careful guidance of the coach Frankie and her own talent and continuous efforts, but finally chooses the euthanasia due to the serious injury [1].

  • Fighters and Fathers: Managing Masculinity in Contemporary Boxing Cinema
    Fighters and Fathers: Managing Masculinity in Contemporary Boxing Cinema JOSH SOPIARZ In Antoine Fuqua’s film Southpaw (2015), just as Jake Gyllenhaal’s character Billy Hope attempts suicide by crashing his luxury sedan into a tree in the front yard, his ten-year-old daughter, Leila, sends him a text message asking: “Daddy. Where are you?” (00:46:04). Her answer comes seconds later when, upon hearing a crash, she finds her father in a heap concussed and bleeding badly on the white marble floor of their home’s entryway. Upon waking, Billy’s first and only concern is Leila. Hospital workers, in an effort to calm him, tell Billy that Leila is safe “with child services” (00:48:08-00:48:10) This news does not comfort Billy. Instead, upon learning that Leila is in the state’s custody, the former light heavyweight champion of the world, with face bloodied and muscles rippling, makes his most concerted effort to get up and leave—presumably, to find his daughter. Before he can rise, however, a doctor administers a large dose of sedative and the heretofore unrestrainable Billy fades into unconsciousness as the scene ends. Leila’s simple question—“Daddy. Where are you?”—is central not only to Southpaw but is also relevant for most major boxing films of the 21st century.1 This includes Clint Eastwood’s Million Dollar Baby (2004), David O. Russell’s The Fighter (2010), Ryan Coogler’s Creed (2015), Jonathan Jakubowic’s Hands of Stone (2016), and Stephen Caple, Jr.’s Creed II (2018). These films establish fighter/trainer relationships as alternatives to otherwise biological or “traditional” father/son relationships.

  • Affirmative Action.Pdf
    Critical Race and Whiteness Studies www.acrawsa.org.au/ejournal Volume 8, 2012 BOOK REVIEW Hamilton Carroll. 2011. Affirmative Reaction: New Formations of White Masculinity, Durham and London: Duke University Press. Timothy Laurie University of Sydney To borrow a phrase from a program that foreshadows much of Hamilton Carroll’s argument, Affirmative Reaction reads like a captain’s log of what stressed out, fed up, self-sacrificing white men are up to on America’s screens – and sometimes, on paper and CDs too. Drawing on films (Brokeback Mountain, Million Dollar Baby, Gran Torino, Traffic and Syriana), television programs (24, American Chopper), comics (The Call of Duty) and music (Eminem, including 8 Mile), Carroll argues that “appeals to injury... incorporate and mobilize failure as a constitutive force for the reorientation of posthegemonic forms of white masculinist privilege” (2). Rather than distancing itself from identity politics, associated here with “women’s rights, gay rights, and civil rights eras” (7), white masculinity now announces itself as a marginal identity: Clint Eastwood the reformed racist and conscientious hero in Gran Torino, Michael Douglas the troubled and transformed father in Traffic, and Eminem the ‘white trash’ upstart in 8 Mile. In other texts, notably Million Dollar Baby and a series of comics based on September 11 fire-fighters, the special status afforded to white ethnicity also serves as an alibi for familiar clichés of white male heroism. The title of this book is misleading - better would be Hamilton

  • A Social Network Analysis of Coproduction Relationships in High Grossing Versus Highly Lauded Films in the U.S
    International Journal of Communication 5 (2011), 1014–1033 1932–8036/20111014 Producing Quality: A Social Network Analysis of Coproduction Relationships in High Grossing Versus Highly Lauded Films in the U.S. Market JADE L. MILLER Tulane University While mainstream U.S. film production has been derided as following a “lowest common denominator” blockbuster-style logic, the industry has actually produced both popular and highly regarded productions. To imagine an alternative (lower cost, higher quality) Hollywood of the future, this article set out to examine the network structure of coproductions in both high grossing and in highly lauded films in the U.S. market for a recent five-year period. Using social network analysis, this study shows that the funding structures of both types of films were less centralized, dense, and clustered than is commonly believed. Coproduction networks of highly lauded films, however, did exhibit structural differences from their high grossing counterparts that suggest more collaboration and penetrability. If the future of film production looks like the structures of the alternative Hollywood described here, we may see a more cooperative, dispersed, and international industrial structure for the future. If one looks at the funding structure of most films released in American theaters, a pattern of familiar names quickly emerges: Paramount, Universal, MGM, and those of other major movie studios. It’s no secret that the majority of films that achieve mass domestic (and international) promotion and distribution are usually associated with a small elite: an oligarchy of production and distribution, headed by a small group of risk-adverse and notoriously nervous executives.

  • RISK-Cfpvol.4Issue1
    cléo vol. 4, issue 1 ­ RISK For the tenth issue of cléo, we’re marking this milestone by thinking about leaps of faith, ​ ​ great failures and huge gains. We’re talking about what motivates us to take a chance on potentially losing it all in order to reap future rewards, or perhaps just a fleeting moment of pleasure or glory. Then there’s the fact that risk isn’t always a choice, as certain communities face danger daily based on racial, gender and economic inequality; what does risk look (and feel) like when it’s beyond our control? Topics and films to consider: ­ Sex and risk: are sensuality and consequence intertwined? Does danger drive us or ​ is it used to control us? Films to consider: Fifty Shades of Grey (2015), Kids (1995), ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Secretary (2002), Crash (1996), The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant (1972), Salò, or ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ the 120 Days of Sodom (1975), In the Realm of the Senses (1976), Belle de Jour ​ ​ ​ ​ (1967), Nymphomaniac (2014) ​ ​ ­ Marginalization and risk: from Black Lives Matter, to the ongoing refugee crisis, to ​ aggressions faced by trans folk, many communities face risk on a daily basis. How are (or aren’t) these stories depicted on screen? What does risk look like when it’s not a choice? God Grew Tired of Us (2006), Selma (2014), Fruitvale Station (2013), ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Rabbit­Proof Fence (2002), Ma vie en rose (1997), Boys Don’t Cry (1999), Tomboy ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (2011), Paper Dolls (2006), Tangerine (2015), Parisenne (Peur de rien) (2015), ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Brooklyn (2015), Black Girl (1966), Dheepan (2015), ...And the Pursuit of Happiness ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (1986) ­ Sport: women in sport are often overlooked and under­celebrated.

  • IN FOCUS: Cripping Cinema and Media Studies
    IN FOCUS: Cripping Cinema and Media Studies Introduction by ROBERT MCRUER, editor n 1985, the historian Paul Longmore identifi ed the conver- gence of disability and media as one long process of “screening stereotypes.”1 Attentive to the ways disabled people were con- sistently represented in fi lm, in particular, as either angry and evil villains or inspirational fi gures for able-bodied characters and Iviewers, Longmore initiated what might be understood as a “crip” tradition of critiquing, from within disability culture, the impover- ished representations that dominant fi lmic and media forms have bequeathed us. Disabled villains like Captain Hook or Magneto are generally defeated and eliminated at fi lm’s end, whereas inspirational fi gures tend either to “overcome” their disability or to end up dead after dutifully changing for the better the lives of everyone around them. Neither fi lmic tendency, of course, could off er more than a two-dimensional engagement with disability, although Longmore did note the promise for a more textured engagement with disability that attended other visual forms, including television and even advertising. Crip theory has emerged over the past few decades as a critical project, closely allied with queer theory, that centers atypical bod- ies, minds, and behaviors while interrogating that which can never be contained or described neatly by an entirely historical and limited abled-disabled binary. As a noun or adjective, “crip” is of course a fl amboyant reclamation, one that disabled activists, artists, and theorists have long used to signify solidarity and resistance far in excess of the mobility impairment seemingly invoked by stigma- tizing and pitying uses of “cripple.”2 As a verb, as I have suggested 1 Paul Longmore, “Screening Stereotypes: Images of Disabled People,” Social Policy 16 (Summer 1985): 31.
