  • The Mind-Game Film Thomas Elsaesser
    9781405168625_4_001.qxd 8/10/08 11:58 AM Page 13 1 The Mind-Game Film Thomas Elsaesser Playing Games In December 2006, Lars von Trier’s The Boss of It All was released. The film is a comedy about the head of an IT company hiring a failed actor to play the “boss of it all,” in order to cover up a sell-out. Von Trier announced that there were a number of (“five to seven”) out-of-place objects scattered throughout, called Lookeys: “For the casual observer, [they are] just a glitch or a mistake. For the initiated, [they are] a riddle to be solved. All Lookeys can be decoded by a system that is unique. [. .] It’s a basic mind game, played with movies” (in Brown 2006). Von Trier went on to offer a prize to the first spectator to spot all the Lookeys and uncover the rules by which they were generated. “Mind-game, played with movies” fits quite well a group of films I found myself increasingly intrigued by, not only because of their often weird details and the fact that they are brain-teasers as well as fun to watch, but also because they seemed to cross the usual boundaries of mainstream Hollywood, independent, auteur film and international art cinema. I also realized I was not alone: while the films I have in mind generally attract minority audiences, their appeal manifests itself as a “cult” following. Spectators can get passionately involved in the worlds that the films cre- ate – they study the characters’ inner lives and back-stories and become experts in the minutiae of a scene, or adept at explaining the improbabil- ity of an event.

  • Film: the Case of Being John Malkovich Martin Barker, University of Aberystwyth, UK
    The Pleasures of Watching an "Off-beat" Film: the Case of Being John Malkovich Martin Barker, University of Aberystwyth, UK It's a real thinking film. And you sort of ponder on a lot of things, you think ooh I wonder if that is possible, and what would you do -- 'cos it starts off as such a peculiar film with that 7½th floor and you think this is going to be really funny all the way through and it's not, it's extremely dark. And an awful lot of undercurrents to it, and quite sinister and … it's actually quite depressing if you stop and think about it. [Emma, Interview 15] M: Last question of all. Try to put into words the kind of pleasure the film gave you overall, both at the time you were watching and now when you sit and think about it. J: Erm. I felt free somehow and very "oof"! [sound of sharp intake of breath] and um, it felt like you know those wheels, you know in a funfair, something like that when I left, very "woah-oah" [wobbling and physical instability]. [Javita, Interview 9] Hollywood in the 1990s was a complicated place, and source of films. As well as the tent- pole summer and Christmas blockbusters, and the array of genre or mixed-genre films, through its finance houses and distribution channels also came an important sequence of "independent" films -- films often characterised by twisted narratives of various kinds. Building in different ways on the achievements of Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs (1992) and Pulp Fiction (1994), all the following (although not all might count as "independents") were significant success stories: The Usual Suspects (1995), The Sixth Sense (1999), American Beauty (1999), Magnolia (1999), The Blair Witch Project (1999), Memento (2000), Vanilla Sky (2001), Adaptation (2002), and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004).

  • Introduction: the Case
    C H A P T E R O N E Introduction: The Case From William Powell to Humphrey Bogart—or debonair to tough; from Bruce Willis to William Petersen—or wisecracking to wise: the celluloid de- tective has evolved over time, processing society’s fears about crime and artic- ulating debates about law enforcement and justice. The 1980s saw cinematic justice exacted by muscle and firepower; today it is pursued with science and brainpower—or what Agatha Christie’s sleuth Hercule Poirot called using “the little grey cells.” In the mid-1980s, William Petersen starred as detective Will Graham in Manhunter (Mann 1986), the first film adaptation of Thomas Harris’s novel Red Dragon (1981), which introduced the world to Dr. Hannibal “The Cannibal” Lector. The film was ahead of its time, bring- ing the criminalist and that which he hunts—the serial killer—to the big screen several years before the genre became pervasive in the mid-1990s. Today William Petersen produces and stars in one of the most popular tele- vision drama series in the world, airing in 100 countries: CSI: Crime Scene In- vestigation (Cole 3). Like Manhunter, CSI centers on the investigations of its detectives, including Gil Grissom (played by Petersen), who are criminal- ists—detectives who specialize in the analysis of physical evidence. The criminalist is a modern-day incarnation of the classical sleuth first envisioned by Edgar Allan Poe in the 1840s with C. Auguste Dupin, the hero of a handful of “tales of ratiocination,” and popularized by Sir Arthur 3 © 2006 State University of New York Press, Albany FIGURE 1.

  • Richard Pells, "Film: Movies and Modern America"
    Film: Movies and Modern America By Richard Pells What is a "typical" American movie? People throughout the world are sure they know. A characteristic American film, they insist, has flamboyant special effects and a sumptuous décor, each a reflection of America's nearly mythic affluence. Furthermore, American movies revel in fast- paced action and a celebration of individual ingenuity embodied in the heroics of an impeccably dressed, permanently youthful Hollywood star. And they feature love stories that lead, inevitably if often implausibly, to happy endings. Yet over the past 15 years, for every high- tech, stunt-filled Mission Impossible, there Director Martin Scorsese and actor Daniel Day-Lewis have worked together are serious and even disturbing films such on such high-quality film projects as American Beautyand The Hours. For as Gangs of New York and The Age of Innocence. every conventional Hollywood blockbuster (© Associated Press) apparently designed to appeal to the predilections of 12-year-old boys, there have been complex and sophisticated movies such as Traffic, Shakespeare in Love, Magnolia, and About Schmidt that are consciously made for grown-ups. What is therefore remarkable about contemporary American movies is their diversity, their effort to explore the social and psychological dimensions of life in modern America, and their ability to combine entertainment with artistry. Profile: Filmmaker Alexander Payne The sweeping vistas of the Nebraska countryside outside the city of Omaha in the movie About Schmidt, and the hushed, stoic visages within the city itself, represent a homecoming of sorts for filmmaker Alexander Payne. The son of Greek parents who owned a prominent restaurant in Omaha, Payne left Nebraska after high school to study Spanish and history at Stanford University, with an eye toward becoming a foreign correspondent.
