“No Reason to Be Seen”: Cinema, Exploitation, and the Political
“No Reason to Be Seen”: Cinema, Exploitation, and the Political by Gordon Sullivan B.A., University of Central Florida, 2004 M.A., North Carolina State University, 2007 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2017 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH THE KENNETH P. DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Gordon Sullivan It was defended on October 20, 2017 and approved by Marcia Landy, Distinguished Professor, Department of English Jennifer Waldron, Associate Professor, Department of English Daniel Morgan, Associate Professor, Department of Cinema and Media Studies, University of Chicago Dissertation Advisor: Adam Lowenstein, Professor, Department of English ii Copyright © by Gordon Sullivan 2017 iii “NO REASON TO BE SEEN”: CINEMA, EXPLOITATION, AND THE POLITICAL Gordon Sullivan, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2017 This dissertation argues that we can best understand exploitation films as a mode of political cinema. Following the work of Peter Brooks on melodrama, the exploitation film is a mode concerned with spectacular violence and its relationship to the political, as defined by French philosopher Jacques Rancière. For Rancière, the political is an “intervention into the visible and sayable,” where members of a community who are otherwise uncounted come to be seen as part of the community through a “redistribution of the sensible.” This aesthetic rupture allows the demands of the formerly-invisible to be seen and considered. We can see this operation at work in the exploitation film, and by investigating a series of exploitation auteurs, we can augment our understanding of what Rancière means by the political.

Directed By: Josephine Decker Written By: Sarah Gubbins Starring: Elisabeth Moss, Odessa Young, Michael Stuhlbarg, Logan Lerman
SHIRLEY Directed by: Josephine Decker Written by: Sarah Gubbins Starring: Elisabeth Moss, Odessa Young, Michael Stuhlbarg, Logan Lerman Running Time: 107 Minutes CORNERSTONE FILMS CONTACTS: Publicity: Anna Bohlin/ [email protected] Marketing: Joanne Michael/ [email protected] SYNPOSIS Fred and Rose move to a small Vermont college town in pursuit of a job for Fred as an assistant professor of literature. The young couple receives an offer for free room and board from professor Stanley Hyman, as long as Rose agrees to spend time cleaning up the home and looking after his wife, acclaimed horror author Shirley Jackson. At first Fred and Rose detest the rocky household of the eccentric couple, but they eventually establish deep bonds with their counterparts, which will test the limits of their young love. Director Josephine Decker makes an exciting return with a biographical portrait brought alive with energy and imagination, based on a novel by Susan Merrill and screenplay by Sarah Gubbins. Shirley is a fresh take on the period drama, full of contemporary intrigue and dynamic in style. It features a stellar lead cast—Elisabeth Moss, Michael Stuhlbarg, Odessa Young, and Logan Lerman—who all return to the Festival to give another memorable performance. DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT Shirley Jackson was a wildly unorthodox human and storyteller. Encountering her work was like finding a map towards becoming the kind of artist I would like to be. Daring. Intimate. Structured yet dreamlike. Shirley’s work rides on the skin between imagined and real, seducing with its oddness and humble cracks until you can’t tell if you’re looking up the stairwell or into your own mouth.

The Political Agenda of Todd Haynes's Far from Heaven Niall Richardson, University of Sunderland, UK
Poison in the Sirkian System: The Political Agenda of Todd Haynes's Far From Heaven Niall Richardson, University of Sunderland, UK Certainly Haynes's work does qualify as queer, but in the traditional sense of the word: unusual, strange, disturbing. (Wyatt, 2000: 175) Haynes "queers" heterosexual, mainstream narrative cinema by making whatever might be familiar or normal about it strange, and in the process hypothesising alternatives that disrupt its integrity and ideological cohesiveness. (DeAngelis, 2004: 41) Todd Haynes is one of the most controversial directors of contemporary cinema. From his student film Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story (1987), to his most controversial, Poison (1991), Haynes has continually challenged spectators' expectations by making the familiar appear unfamiliar and evoking a sense of the unusual, strange, or "queer" within everyday lives. Committed to an agenda of political filmmaking, Haynes's films not only subvert Hollywood's storytelling conventions and assail the spectator with challenging images (especially Poison) but also ask the spectator to acknowledge the alienation of minority groups from mainstream society. It would, therefore, seem odd that Haynes should have recently directed Far From Heaven (2002), a homage to the melodramas of the 1950s. Unlike Haynes's other films -- Superstar, Poison, Dottie Gets Spanked (1993), Safe (1995) and Velvet Goldmine (1998) -- Far From Heaven is Haynes's first "commercial" success, popular with both mainstream audiences and critics. This paper will argue that Far From Heaven is more than simply an affectionate pastiche of Douglas Sirk's classic melodrama All That Heaven Allows (1955). Instead, Far From Heaven combines the social critique of the "Sirkian System" with the political agenda found in Poison.

1 RESISTANCE MADE IN HOLLYWOOD: American Movies on Nazi Germany, 1939-1945 Mercer Brady Senior Honors Thesis in History University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Department of History Advisor: Prof. Karen Hagemann Co-Reader: Prof. Fitz Brundage Date: March 16, 2020 2 Acknowledgements I want to thank Dr. Karen Hagemann. I had not worked with Dr. Hagemann before this process; she took a chance on me by becoming my advisor. I thought that I would be unable to pursue an honors thesis. By being my advisor, she made this experience possible. Her interest and dedication to my work exceeded my expectations. My thesis greatly benefited from her input. Thank you, Dr. Hagemann, for your generosity with your time and genuine interest in this thesis and its success. Thank you to Dr. Fitz Brundage for his helpful comments and willingness to be my second reader. I would also like to thank Dr. Michelle King for her valuable suggestions and support throughout this process. I am very grateful for Dr. Hagemann and Dr. King. Thank you both for keeping me motivated and believing in my work. Thank you to my roommates, Julia Wunder, Waverly Leonard, and Jamie Antinori, for being so supportive. They understood when I could not be social and continued to be there for me. They saw more of the actual writing of this thesis than anyone else. Thank you for being great listeners and wonderful friends. Thank you also to my parents, Joe and Krista Brady, for their unwavering encouragement and trust in my judgment. I would also like to thank my sister, Mahlon Brady, for being willing to hear about subjects that are out of her sphere of interest.

Massive amounts of 35mm film were packed neatly in unwieldy padlocked metal cans and sent to a world’s worth of neighborhood cinemas. During my tenure at a local multiplex, a particularly long movie about a boy wizard resulted in a particularly massive film print. I managed to get this print halfway up a particularly steep staircase before tumbling bow-tie first down to what I feared was my doom but was, in fact, a conveniently placed pile of industrial sized bags of Orville Redenbacher. After that, I left it to our fearless projectionists to struggle them up the stairs to dimly lit projection booths. There, hunched over miles of celluloid, they would work into the wee hours of the morning – steady hands and bleary eyes assembling a new adventure. Such was the weight of storytelling. And the enormity of it made sense to me. Should one be able to lose the life and times of Charles Foster Kane if it slides down into that little space between the entertainment center and the wall? Emily Beck FARGO THEATRE Should the battle against an evil galactic empire be shipped in a standard packing envelope lined with those delicious little bubbles? Executive Director Isn’t it only fitting that the epic journey to return The One Ring (back to the fiery chasm from whence it came) be so enormous it could topple a teenager in an usher’s tuxedo made entirely of polyester? But the world turned.

HENRY FOOL USA 1997 137 Min. Farbe
HENRY FOOL USA 1997 137 Min. Farbe OmU Verleih : polyfilm, Wien Hal Hartley pur: klug, zynisch, komisch, und eine Spur tragisch. In Henry Fool trifft schräge Tristesse auf gerissene Durchtriebenheit, sind die Menschen weder schwarz noch weiß, sie fluchen, trinken, leben, lieben, atmen, hintergehen einander und versuchen dem täglichen Einerlei etwas Lust abzuringen. Simon ist einsam, verklemmt, scheu und arbeitet bei der städtischen Müllabfuhr. Die paar Dollar, die er damit verdient, muß er mit seiner manisch depressiven Mutter und der nymphomanischen Schwester teilen. Im Keller haust Henry, Biertrinker, Kettenraucher, Egomane, selbsternannter Literat und Frauenbetörer. Das schlichte Gegenteil von Simon. Henry schreibt - wahrscheinlich seit Jahren - seine Memoiren, ein Gekritzel, das dereinst die Welt erschüttern soll, so epochal, das auch Henry daran zerbrechen wird. Henry hält Simon zum Schreiben an und dieser landet mit der Unverfrorenheit des Anfängers einen Bestseller, der im Internet veröffentlicht wird und ihn über Nacht zum Star macht. PALME FÜR DAS BESTE DREHBUCH in Cannes 1998 Hal Hartley über Henry Fool: "Ich wollte eine Geschichte über Ehrgeiz, Talent und Einfluss machen. (...) Mich beschäftigte folgende Frage: Was passiert, wenn dein wichtigster Einfluss jemand ist, für den du dich eigentlich schämst, den als Vorbild anzuerkennen dir peinlich ist. (...) 'Faust' und 'Kaspar Hauser' waren Quellen. Ich habe sie nicht vollständig übernommen, aber bei der Lektüre erschienen sie mir als hilfreiche Startpunkte für meine Charaktere. Ich wollte, dass sie mythische, weit angelegte Charaktere werden, alle Komplexitätsschichten sollten intakt sein. (...) Ich habe mich auch auf das Verhältnis zwischen Joyce und Beckett bezogen - ohne mich wirklich genau an das zu halten, was ich darüber wusste." STAB Produzenten : Keith Abell Jerome Brownstein Thierry Cagianut Hal Hartley Larry Meistrich Daniel J.
