  • Ruth Prawer Jhabvala's Adapted Screenplays
    Absorbing the Worlds of Others: Ruth Prawer Jhabvala’s Adapted Screenplays By Laura Fryer Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of a PhD degree at De Montfort University, Leicester. Funded by Midlands 3 Cities and the Arts and Humanities Research Council. June 2020 i Abstract Despite being a prolific and well-decorated adapter and screenwriter, the screenplays of Ruth Prawer Jhabvala are largely overlooked in adaptation studies. This is likely, in part, because her life and career are characterised by the paradox of being an outsider on the inside: whether that be as a European writing in and about India, as a novelist in film or as a woman in industry. The aims of this thesis are threefold: to explore the reasons behind her neglect in criticism, to uncover her contributions to the film adaptations she worked on and to draw together the fields of screenwriting and adaptation studies. Surveying both existing academic studies in film history, screenwriting and adaptation in Chapter 1 -- as well as publicity materials in Chapter 2 -- reveals that screenwriting in general is on the periphery of considerations of film authorship. In Chapter 2, I employ Sandra Gilbert’s and Susan Gubar’s notions of ‘the madwoman in the attic’ and ‘the angel in the house’ to portrayals of screenwriters, arguing that Jhabvala purposely cultivates an impression of herself as the latter -- a submissive screenwriter, of no threat to patriarchal or directorial power -- to protect herself from any negative attention as the former. However, the archival materials examined in Chapter 3 which include screenplay drafts, reveal her to have made significant contributions to problem-solving, characterisation and tone.

Sarafian / Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu By Roderick Heath The story of Hugh Glass contains the essence of American frontier mythology—the cruelty of nature met with the indomitable grit and resolve of the frontiersman. It‘s the sort of story breathlessly reported in pulp novellas and pseudohistories, and more recently, of course, movies. Glass, born in Pennsylvania in 1780, found his place in legend as a member of a fur-trading expedition led by General William Henry Ashley, setting out in 1822 with a force of about a hundred men, including other figures that would become vital in pioneering annals, like Jim Bridger, Jedediah Smith, and John Fitzgerald.

The study concentrates on two issues: the romance conventions and the portrayal of ethnicity. I begin with the conventions of romance. The presentation of these conventions is divided into two sections. First I discuss the history of the romance genre in order to show the conventions of romance that have characterized the genre from its beginning. Second I examine the formula of romance that is distinctive to more contemporary romance novels. In the third theory section of my thesis I address the portrayal of intercultural relationships in literature. The analysis of Love Story is divided into three sections. In the first section I concentrate on the romance elements that stem from the early form the Greek or Classic romances. I argue that despite the unconventional romance ending of Love Story, it contains plenty of other romance elements.

How Hollywood Films Portray Illness Robert A. Clark, M.D. Part I: Oncology Art imitates life, we are often told. Occasionally we also observe that life imitates art. Hollywood movies may fulfill the definition of art in both these adages. Movies evoke our fantasies, fears, loves, and hates and therefore reflect our lives. The art of film, however, diverges from real life because of the necessities of good story- telling: dramatization, plot lines, character development, and romanticism. There- fore, films are often imperfect reflections of our lives. As F. Scott Fitzgerald said, “There are no second acts in life.” Movies have been blamed for creating disturbing or profane cultural images, leading to societal ills such as violence, sexual deviancy, and isolation. Whether art imitates life or the reverse, it may be instructive to study how movies depict medi- cal themes, especially oncology, in order to understand how cancer and medicine are perceived in popular culture.

  • Dysrecognition
    MA Research Thesis Film Studies DYSRECOGNITION Emotional Engagement and Estrangement at The Congress (2013) Name: Lucia ten Berge University of Amsterdam Student number: 10221557 MA Film Studies Supervisor: dr. G.W. van der Pol Date: 23 June 2015 Second reader: dr. A.M. Geil Word count: 22,998 ABSTRACT This thesis focuses on the problem of recognition in Murray Smith’s model of the structure of sympathy; a system that is said to be applicable to any feature film. To investigate this problem, Ari Folman’s 2013 film The Congress; that consists of both live action and animation, will be explored. The fact that this film was poorly attended leads to questions about the emotional engagement experienced by the spectator. The specific narrative structure of this film, combined with the mix of live action and animation, results in a structure of sympathy that deviates from Murray Smith’s version. In The Congress, the live action world is transformed completely into animation at some point. This particular combination of live action and animation could result in an alternative mode of spectatorial engagement that eventually causes the spectator to experience alienation from the characters. The central question then, is why this would happen specifically in this case, and what this means for theorizing spectatorial engagement. To investigate this, different theoretical approaches are applied to the film. The research will start off with an introduction to the concept of spectatorial engagement by exploring different approaches to the term. In chapter two, the position and context of the spectator will be studied. The third chapter is centred on the influence of expectations raised by the film on the engagement of the spectator.
