    Bamcinématek Presents Queer Pagan Punk: the Films of Derek Jarman, Oct 30—Nov 11

    BAMcinématek presents Queer Pagan Punk: The Films of Derek Jarman, Oct 30—Nov 11 A complete retrospective of Jarman’s 12 feature films, the most comprehensive New York series in nearly two decades New restorations of debut feature Sebastiane and Caravaggio “It feels like the correct time to be reminded of an ancient tradition that has always served civilization well, that of the independent, truth-telling poet provocateur.”—Tilda Swinton The Wall Street Journal is the title sponsor for BAMcinématek and BAM Rose Cinemas. Brooklyn, NY/Sep 30, 2014—From Thursday, October 30 through Tuesday, November 11, BAMcinématek presents Queer Pagan Punk: The Films of Derek Jarman, a comprehensive retrospective of iconoclastic British filmmaker and crusading gay rights activist Derek Jarman, following its run at the BFI this spring. Jarman not only redefined queer cinema, but reimagined moviemaking as a means for limitless personal expression. From classical adaptations to historical biographies to avant-garde essay films, he crafted a body of work that was at once personal and political, during a difficult period when British independent cinema was foundering and the AIDS crisis provoked a wave of panic and homophobia. Also a poet, diarist, and painter, Jarman first entered the realm of the movies as a production designer for Ken Russell. The Devils (1971—Oct 31), Russell’s controversial opus of repressed nuns and witchcraft trials, played out in a 17th-century French village that Jarman spent a year creating. His own first feature, Sebastiane (1976—Nov 9), playing in a new restoration, placed a daring emphasis on male nudity and eroticism as it chronicled the death of the Christian martyr; Jarman called it “the first film that depicted homosexuality in a completely matter-of-fact way.” A time-traveling Queen Elizabeth I wanders among the ruins of a dystopic modern London in Jubilee (1978—Oct 30), a shot-in-the-streets survey of the burgeoning punk scene that captures early performances by Adam Ant, Wayne County, Siouxsie and the Banshees, and the Slits.

STEP INTO A BLUE FUNK: TRANSVERSAL COLOR IN DEREK JARMAN’S BLUE by DAREN FOWLER Under the Direction of Angelo Restivo ABSTRACT Derek Jarman’s Blue has a complicated reception and exhibition history. Stuck between his past representational queer cinema and the inability to represent the suffering and death from AIDS, Jarman crafted a film of radical stylistics. It is in Blue’s striking color that a transversality of form, sensation, and visuality occurs, and in so doing, produces a space for synesthetic affectivity and collective desire. This thesis will use those radical formal elements and the history of Jarman and Blue to position color away from the phobic tradition of color theory and towards a flowing site of political rupture.

    To Save and Project: The 12th MoMA International Festival of Film Preservation Screening Schedule October 24–November 22, 2014 Friday, October 24 7:00 The Iron Mask. 1929. USA. Directed by Allan Dwan. Story by Elton Thomas (Douglas Fairbanks). With Douglas Fairbanks, Marguerite De La Motte, Dorothy Revier, Nigel De Brulier. We are proud to open To Save and Project 2014 with the North American premiere of The Iron Mask, a major restoration from MoMA’s film archive supervised by Peter Williamson, Preservation Officer, and based on the original camera negative given to MoMA in 1935 by Douglas Fairbanks. A stand-alone sequel to Fairbanks’s 1921 hit The Three Musketeers, The Iron Mask was, in the words of its director, Allan Dwan, “the last of the big silents,” and the swashbuckling action—superbly filmed by Dwan, one of the great masters of the seamless classical style—leads gracefully into a poignant farewell to silent films and the larger-than-life figures who inhabited them. Midway through production, Fairbanks decided to yield in part to the rapidly emerging demand for talking pictures and added three spoken sequences to the film. Thanks to the recent rediscovery of the missing soundtrack discs, The Iron Mask can now be heard for the first time since 1929 with all of the spoken sequences, as well as Hugo Riesenfeld’s symphonic score, restored to their original fidelity. Preserved by The Museum of Modern Art with support from the Celeste Bartos Fund for Film Preservation. 95 min. Saturday, October 25 2:00 Todo Modo. 1976. Italy/France.

Derek Jarman was a multifaceted artist whose intermedial versatility reinforces a strong authorial discourse.

  • Path(O)S of Mourning. Memory, Death and the Invisible Body in Derek Jarman’S Blue

    Path(O)S of Mourning. Memory, Death and the Invisible Body in Derek Jarman’S Blue

    Path(o)s of Mourning. Memory, Death and the Invisible Body in Derek Jarman’s Blue by Nicoletta Vallorani My work here addresses two quite complex issues. The first one is the virulence of the hostility toward gay men that the AIDS pandemic has released: this is the backdrop against which Jarman’s extended elaboration and mourning for his own death is performed, after his diagnosis as body-positive in 1986. The second issue links to the open question of public mourning and its relation to AIDS in the early 90s, when the AIDS epidemic is not at its height, but it is certainly more visible than before, and many artists register the impact of the new sensibility this medical and social emergency actually moulds. One of striking aspect of gay and queer cultures, particularly in the decade closing the millennium, is the way in which they articulate the individual grief of the sick – often isolated and rejected by the community – into collective forms of mourning taking the shapes of different rituals, all of them trying to absorb and accept the deep pathos of loss in multiple paths of mourning. Jarman, for example, writes and shoot Blue precisely to this purpose. The film is first screened in 1993 and it is soon given by the critics as his last work; the artist will in fact die soon after. Mourning as a key to it, the solution to the riddle of death with AIDS, both for Jarman and for many people in the same conditions. Under these circumstances, therefore, death rites acquire a double-sided quality, in that – as Phelan maintains – they “enact the difficult force of a grief which simultaneously mourns the lost object and ourselves” (Phelan 1997: 153).

    Terence Davies and the Cinema: an Intertextual Study of His Films James Andrew Ballands Phd University of York Theatre, Film

    Terence Davies and the Cinema: An Intertextual Study of His Films James Andrew Ballands PhD University of York Theatre, Film and Television September 2015 Abstract This thesis examines the oeuvre of the British filmmaker Terence Davies between 1976 and 2011. Overall, his work from this period can be separated into two distinct categories: autobiographical films and literary adaptations. Whereas previous critical works on this writer-director have often framed him as an auteur due to the considerable creative control that he exerts over his films, this thesis problematizes such a reading by situating his body of work within a larger intertextual field. Within this field, I include other films, literary texts and pieces of music, in order to explore how other cultural influences have been channelled into Davies’s filmmaking. I also explore the idea that his memories of growing up in Liverpool – particularly during the 1950s – constitute another intertext within his autobiographical films. Similarly, I demonstrate how considering the creative input of his key collaborators – including producers, cinematographers, editors and production designers – illuminates both Davies’s approach to filmmaking and the dense construction of his films as texts. Unlike other critical writings on Davies’s career, my thesis considers the audience’s engagement with his films and the readings they generate from them. This thesis adopts a multi-disciplinary approach to Davies’s films by engaging with various branches of study within the arts, including post-structuralist theory, autobiographical studies, adaptation studies, music theory, auteur theory and production studies. Furthermore, this thesis includes insights that have been gathered from eighteen original interviews with individuals involved in the making of Terence Davies’s films – including one with the filmmaker himself.
