ALIEN Ripley Et Les Figures De L'altérité Depuis Bientôt Quarante
ALIEN Ripley et les figures de l’altérité Depuis bientôt quarante ans, l’influence d’Alien (Ridley Scott, 1979) sur la culture populaire ne s’est jamais démentie, comme en témoignent ses trois suites (Aliens, James Cameron, 1986 ; Alien3, David Fincher, 1992 ; Alien, la résurrection, Jean-Pierre Jeunet, 1997), ses deux prequels (Prometheus, 2012 ; Alien : Covenant, 2017), réalisés par Ridley Scott lui- même, ses crossovers (Alien vs. Predator, Paul W. S. Anderson, 2004 ; Aliens vs. Predator : Requiem, Colin et Greg Strause, 2007), mais aussi les nombreuses novélisations, bandes dessinées et autres jeux vidéos qui en ont été tirés. Or, ce modèle de réussite hollywoodienne, fruit d’un véritable travail collectif et d’une exceptionnelle adjonction de talents – Dan O’Bannon, Walter Hill et David Giler au scénario, Jerry Goldsmith à la musique, Hans Ruedi Giger pour le design de la créature, ou encore Jean Giraud (Mœbius) pour celui des combinaisons spatiales –, dont l’ambition initiale était de tirer bénéfice du regain d’intérêt pour le cinéma de genre provoqué par les succès des Dents de la mer (Steven Spielberg, 1975) et de Star Wars (George Lucas, 1977), a également suscité, au fil des décennies, de multiples lectures savantes : mythologiques, psychanalytiques, politiques ou féministes… Sans doute est-ce parce que cette formidable machine à faire peur, à l’image de son monstre composite, mêle inextricablement les genres (science-fiction, horreur gothique, thriller conspirationniste) et les thèmes (la biologie évolutive, l’intelligence artificielle, le néolibéralisme, la condition féminine dans une société masculiniste, la sexualité et la maternité) pour mieux confronter les pauvres représentants d’une humanité ordinaire à une altérité radicale et surhumaine – laquelle ne prend d’ailleurs pas seulement le « visage » de l’extraterrestre, mais aussi ceux d’un androïde (Ash) et d’un ordinateur de bord (Mother) – et pour faire naître de cette confrontation l’un des personnages féminins les plus intéressants du cinéma américain postmoderne : Ellen L.

An Analysis of Hegemonic Social Structures in "Friends"
"I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU" IF YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME: AN ANALYSIS OF HEGEMONIC SOCIAL STRUCTURES IN "FRIENDS" Lisa Marie Marshall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2007 Committee: Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor Audrey E. Ellenwood Graduate Faculty Representative James C. Foust Lynda Dee Dixon © 2007 Lisa Marshall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the dominant ideologies and hegemonic social constructs the television series Friends communicates in regard to friendship practices, gender roles, racial representations, and social class in order to suggest relationships between the series and social patterns in the broader culture. This dissertation describes the importance of studying television content and its relationship to media culture and social influence. The analysis included a quantitative content analysis of friendship maintenance, and a qualitative textual analysis of alternative families, gender, race, and class representations. The analysis found the characters displayed actions of selectivity, only accepting a small group of friends in their social circle based on friendship, gender, race, and social class distinctions as the six characters formed a culture that no one else was allowed to enter. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project stems from countless years of watching and appreciating television. When I was in college, a good friend told me about a series that featured six young people who discussed their lives over countless cups of coffee. Even though the series was in its seventh year at the time, I did not start to watch the show until that season.

Funny, deep and unexpected, Hava Nagila: What Is It? will celebrate 100 years of Jewish history and culture through the journey of a song, and reveal the power of music to bridge cultural divides and bring us together as human beings. “We are thrilled to be working with Marta again,” says director Roberta Grossman, whose film Blessed Is the Match, about Holocaust heroine Hannah Senesh, was shortlisted for an Academy Award, won the audience award at 13 film festivals, was broadcast on PBS in 2010, and nominated for a Primetime Emmy. “Marta is someone who elevates every project she touches, and her experience and guidance will only make the film better.” Kauffman was the co-creator and executive producer of the hit TV series Friends. Prior to her work on Friends, Kauffman co-created and co-executive produced the critically acclaimed series Dream On. She co-created the series The Powers That Be, for Norman Lear, and co-created and served as executive producer on the comedy series Family Album and Veronica’s Closet. Kauffman executive produced Blessed Is the Match, working closely with Grossman, producer Lisa Thomas and writer Sophie Sartain.

8 TV Power Games: Friends and Law & Order
8 TV Power Games: Friends and Law & Order There is no such thing as a one-man show | at least not in television: one feature that all TV shows have in common is the combination of a large number of diverse contributors: producers, scriptwriters, actors, and so on. This is illustrated in Exhibit 8.1, which depicts the links between key contributors to the making and selling of a TV show. Solid lines repre- sent some form of contractual relationship, whereas dashed lines represent non-contractual relationships of relevance for value creation and value distribution. As is the case with movies, pharmaceutical drugs, and other products, the distribution of TV show values is very skewed: many TV shows are worth relatively little, whereas a few shows generate a very high value: For example, at its peak Emmy Award-winning drama ER fetched $13 million per episode.1 How does the value created by successful shows get divided among its various contrib- utors, in particular actors, producers and networks? Who gets the biggest slice of the big pie? In this chapter, I address this question by looking at two opposite extreme cases in terms of relative negotiation power: Law & Order and Friends. Law & Order | and proﬁts The legal drama series Law & Order was ﬁrst broadcast on NBC on September 13, 1990. (The pilot episode, produced in 1988, was intended for CBS, but the network rejected it, just as Fox did later, in both cases because the show did not feature any \breakout" characters.) By the time the last show aired on May 24, 2010, it was the longest-running crime drama on American prime time TV.

Blessed is the flame that burns in the secret fastness of the heart. Blessed is the heart with strength to stop its beating for honor’s sake. Blessed is the match consumed in kindling flame. - Hannah Senesh, days before her capture by the Nazis (San Francisco, CA) — Hannah Senesh was only 22 when she parachuted into Nazi-occupied Europe in an effort to save the Jews of Hungary, but she had already left behind a body of literary work consisting of poems and diaries that would inspire readers for generations to come. Narrated by Academy Award® nominee Joan Allen, Blessed is the Match is the first feature documentary to bring to life this remarkable Holocaust heroine through interviews, eyewitness accounts, rare family photographs, dramatic re-creations, and the writings of Hannah and her mother Catherine Senesh. The film retraces Hannah’s perilous mission, reconstructs her defiant months in a Gestapo prison during the summer of 1944, and looks back on the life of a talented and complex girl who came of age in a world descending into madness.

Aliens” (1986) – Superior Sequel to the Original Source
“Aliens” (1986) – Superior Sequel to the Original Source Retrospective by Dr. John L. Flynn Introduction At first glance, the notion of a sequel to “Alien” (1979) must have seemed like such a forgone conclusion. Next to “Star Wars” (1977) and “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” (1977), Ridley Scott’s stylish thriller had been one of the most popular films of the decade. But in the six years since its release, the motion picture had also spawned a rash of forgettable clones. And in a period filled with sequels to almost every successful and popular Hollywood movie that rarely succeeded on their own merit as original entertainment, the new production appeared to be more of a tremendous gamble than a sure thing. Besides the challenge to bring something familiar and new under budget and on time to the screen, the project also had to deal with its share of preconceptions. The most obvious problem writer and director James Cameron faced in developing a sequel to “Alien,” he said, was, “How do you beat a classic? You really have to dig deep into the bag of tricks and come up with some good ideas. And you have to do a proper homage to the original without being a mindless fan, something which is a piece of entertainment and a story in its own right.” Spawning the Sequel In the wake of “Alien’s” success, many similar films soon began appearing at the local multi-plex. Just as it had been influenced by low budget science fiction films of the Fifties and Sixties, like “It! The Terror from Beyond Space” (1958) and “Planet of the Vampires” (1965), the critically-acclaimed motion picture inspired its own collection of imitators, including “Inseminoid” (1980), ‘The Creature Wasn’t Nice” (1981), “Galaxina” (1981), “Galaxy of Terror” (1981) and many others.
