My Power Is in My Feet
Sketch Volume 80, Number 2 2017 Article 12 My Power is in My Feet Shelby Dill∗ ∗Iowa State University Copyright c 2017 by the authors. Sketch is produced by The Berkeley Electronic Press (bepress). http://lib.dr.iastate.edu/sketch My Power is in My Feet By Shelby Dill Before I was even born, Michelle Pfeifer zipped up her black leather suit, put on her cat ears, and strutted the streets of Gotham in the movie Batman Returns. Catwoman wrestled on rooftops with Bruce Wayne before I was even a thought in my mother’s mind. My preexistent self had no notion the dangers of being born a girl, but as Pfeifer was fung out the window by Christopher Walken, she knew. She knew as she lifted her butt in the air while villain Oswald Cobblepot groaned at the sight of her. She slowly looked down at her curved body, exposing powdered on dark eye shadow. “The thought of busting Batman makes me feel all…dirty,” she said. “Maybe I’ll just give myself a bath right here.” As she licked her arm up and down, Oswald gazed on, knowing he’ll do just about anything she asks of him. But perhaps the most poignant of all was the kiss that killed the evil Max Shrek. Her literally electrifying kiss had sparks fying as it burned Christopher Walken to the bone. That would be the last time Catwoman was on screen for about twelve years. Two years after the electrifying kiss, I would be born. Eight years after that, I would be the one girl in my neighborhood, playing kickball against all the boys.

CANDICE BREITZ SOLILOQUY TRILOGY (2000) (Three Short Films on DVD) Total viewing time of all 3 films: 29 minutes ∑ Soliloquy (Clint)(1971 - 2000) Length - 00:06:57:22 ∑ Soliloquy (Jack) (1987 - 2000) Length - 00:14:06:25 ∑ Soliloquy (Sharon) (1992 - 2000) Length - 00:07:11:03 In the presence of the super-star, we are suspended in an eternal present tense - all else seems flat and homogenous. As suggested by its title, the Soliloquy Trilogy is a series of three monologues. My interest was in seeking a formal language to express the dramatic compression of space and time that occurs in the presence of celebrity. Each of the three films is driven by the same impulse (the desire to distil auratic presence to the extent that it might begin to unravel and flatten even as it unfolds before our eyes) and the same editing logic (each takes a well-known Hollywood movie as its starting point, zooming in on a single protagonist who is then stalked and isolated (cut and paste) out of every scene in which s/he appears in the movie). Soliloquy (Sharon) (1992 - 2000) for example, is a tight edit of the psycho-sexual thriller Basic Instinct (1992). Basic Instinct is rigorously trimmed so that all footage is deleted except the moments in which Sharon Stone is speaking… or groaning… or giggling… or grunting. The new film thus isolates and chronologically strings together all of Sharon Stone’s verbal moments, in the process reducing the feature-length film to only slightly more than 7 minutes. A monochrome screen is dropped in to edit out those visual moments in which other characters are too prominent while Stone speaks.

Erin Brockovich
Erin Brockovich Dir: Steven Soderbergh, USA, 2000 A review by Matthew Nelson, University of Wisconsin- Madison, USA When a film opens with the title "based on a true story," a sinking feeling of gloom comes over me. Will this be yet another typical triumph over adversity, human-interest flick, cranked out by the Hollywood machine to force-feed an increasingly lazy mass audience interested only in star power and happy endings? The lack of original story lines and plot conventions has turned the American motion picture industry into a creator of shallow popular interest films bested in their absurdity and lack of depth only by made-for-TV movies. While it has been said that our greatest stories come from real life, the griminess of the modern world rarely fits into the tightly regulated limitations surrounding mainstream American screenwriting. Details that do not fit within the formula of a marketable "true story" film, which must attempt to appeal to a large audience base of diverse people, are edited out in favor of more pleasing elements, such as a love story, gripping court room confession, or death bed recovery. With this admittedly jaded viewpoint, I went into Erin Brockovich hoping for the best (a rather vacant, feel-good movie, forgotten before I had pulled out of the multi-plex parking garage), but expected far worse. To my pleasant surprise, it turned out to be neither. Director Steven Soderbergh (of Sex, Lies and Videotape fame) manages to pull off an amazingly interesting film, with snappy writing, fine casting, and plenty of that feel good energy, that does not fall into sugary sentimentalism.

Bonkers! a Fortnight in London a 3 Day Exhibition of Photographs by Bettina Rheims on View at Christie’S King Street, London 11 -13 September 2014
PRESS RELEASE | LONDON FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 1 S EPTEMBER 2014 2 0 1 4 BONKERS! A FORTNIGHT IN LONDON A 3 DAY EXHIBITION OF PHOTOGRAPHS BY BETTINA RHEIMS ON VIEW AT CHRISTIE’S KING STREET, LONDON 11 -13 SEPTEMBER 2014 Amber LeBon has lost her car keys, illustrated left Harriet Verney, Queenie standing on the bed, illustrated right London – Christie’s is pleased to announce a three day solo exhibition of renowned French photographer, Bettina Rheims’ new series, ‘Bonkers! A Fortnight in London’, which will take place on 11-13 September at Christie’s King Street, London, before heading off to Camera Work gallery in Berlin. Coinciding with the launch of the book of the same name, this exhibition will showcase the latest series of photographs by Bettina Rheims which is inspired by the frivolity, charm and boldness of the young generation of British ‘It Girls’. Fond of British culture, Bettina Rheims shot her models in London, where they were surrounded and inspired by the city’s rock’n’roll and light hearted humour. Bettina Rheims - “For some reason, eccentricity is and will always be British!” Working since the early 1980’s Bettina has created her own ‘signature’ by capturing the essence of femininity in nude portraits. Her unique relationship with the models and her vision of the strength and fragility in each one of them, led her to shoot some of the most famous women in the world, such as Madonna, Kate Moss, Sharon Stone, Charlotte Rampling, Marianne Faithfull, Monica Bellucci, Kylie Minogue and many others. Her work has been shown in galleries and museums all around the world, including Europe, Japan, Australia and the United States and some of her most iconic photographs remain in important international private collections and public institutions.
