  • Allusion As a Cinematic Device
    I’VE SEEN THIS ALL BEFORE: ALLUSION AS A CINEMATIC DEVICE by BRYCE EMANUEL THOMPSON A THESIS Presented to the Department of Cinema Studies and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2019 An Abstract of the Thesis of Bryce Thompson for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of Cinema Studies to be taken June 2019 Title: I’ve Seen this All Before: Allusion as a Cinematic Device Approved: _______________________________________ Daniel Gómez Steinhart Scholarship concerning allusion as a cinematic device is practically non- existent, however, the prevalence of the device within the medium is quite abundant. In light of this, this study seeks to understand allusion on its own terms, exploring its adaptation to cinema. Through a survey of the effective qualities of allusion, a taxonomy of allusionary types, film theory, and allusion’s application in independent cinema, it is apparent that allusion excels within the cinematic form and demonstrates the great versatility and maximalist nature of the discipline. With the groundwork laid out by this study, hopefully further scholarship will develop on the topic of allusion in order to properly understand such a pervasive and complex tool. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my thesis committee of Professor Daniel Steinhart, Professor Casey Shoop, and Professor Allison McGuffie for their continued support, mentorship, and patience. I would also like to thank Professor Louise Bishop who has been immensely helpful in my time at university and in my research. I have only the most overwhelming gratitude towards these gracious teachers who were willing to guide me through this strenuous but rewarding process, as I explore the maddening and inexact world of allusion.

Tassinary Committee Members, Michael L. Greenwald R. Yauger Williams Head of Department, Timothy McLaughlin December 2010 Major Subject: Visualization Sciences iii ABSTRACT Cartoon Noir: A Comparative Study of Visual Parody. (December 2010) Bhuvana Devigere Mallikarjunaiah, B.E., Visveswaraiah Technological University, India Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Louis G. Tassinary American film parody can be characterized as a distorted, comical and yet affectionate imitation of a given genre or specific work. Film noir as a genre with its distinct visual styles has been an easy target for such “creative criticism.” Mel Brooks, famous for his series of successful parody films, has exhorted that the situation alone must be absurd while the actors must be serious, not funny to make a comedy funnier. He also said that funny is in the writing and not in the performance itself. Film noir through its unconventional visual styles and convoluted story lines engenders feelings of anxiety and paranoia in the audience, providing rich fodder for parody. The animated theatrical series Looney Tunes with its trademark slapstick style is well suited for making serious situations look absurd, affording “creative criticism”.

  • The Routledge Companion to Remix Studies
    THE ROUTLEDGE COMPANION TO REMIX STUDIES The Routledge Companion to Remix Studies comprises contemporary texts by key authors and artists who are active in the emerging field of remix studies. As an organic interna- tional movement, remix culture originated in the popular music culture of the 1970s, and has since grown into a rich cultural activity encompassing numerous forms of media. The act of recombining pre-existing material brings up pressing questions of authen- ticity, reception, authorship, copyright, and the techno-politics of media activism. This book approaches remix studies from various angles, including sections on history, aes- thetics, ethics, politics, and practice, and presents theoretical chapters alongside case studies of remix projects. The Routledge Companion to Remix Studies is a valuable resource for both researchers and remix practitioners, as well as a teaching tool for instructors using remix practices in the classroom. Eduardo Navas is the author of Remix Theory: The Aesthetics of Sampling (Springer, 2012). He researches and teaches principles of cultural analytics and digital humanities in the School of Visual Arts at The Pennsylvania State University, PA. Navas is a 2010–12 Post- Doctoral Fellow in the Department of Information Science and Media Studies at the University of Bergen, Norway, and received his PhD from the Program of Art and Media History, Theory, and Criticism at the University of California in San Diego. Owen Gallagher received his PhD in Visual Culture from the National College of Art and Design (NCAD) in Dublin. He is the founder of TotalRecut.com, an online com- munity archive of remix videos, and a co-founder of the Remix Theory & Praxis seminar group.

  • The Sports Film
    THE SPORTS FILM GAMES PEOPLE PLAY B RUCE BABINGTON WALLFLOWER LONDON and NEW YORK Sports_film_pages.indb 3 15/1/14 15:03:46 INTRODUCTION: START OF PLAY A few introductory words about Invictus Invictus (Clint Eastwood, 2010) is a useful point to begin a short account of the sports film. A recent, high profile production, with two actors (Morgan Freeman as Nelson Mandela and Matt Damon as François Pienaar, the cap- tain of the South African rugby team) nominated for Academy Awards, and a major contemporary American director in Eastwood, it attests both to the contemporary prestige of the proliferating sports film, and to the interna- tionalising of the genre. Films such as Cry Freedom (Richard Attenborough, 1987), Cry the Beloved Country (Darrell Roodt, 1995), The Power of One (John G. Avildsen, 1992), A Dry White Season (Euzhan Palcy, 1989), and Goodbye Bafana (Billie August, 2007), demonstrate the contemporary cinema’s fascination with the South African apartheid regime and its fall, and with the figure of Nelson Mandela, widely seen as one of the political heroes of our time. Another film about this era might have been expected, but hardly a Hollywood production based on the 1995 Rugby World Cup, rugby being a lower tier sport in the US (the largely forgotten progenitor of American football), and Hollywood faithfully reflecting American parochial- ism as regards other nations’ sports. Like many of the most memorable sports films, Invictus through its sports narrative addresses not just sporting matters but wider issues, not implicitly as many do, but very explicitly, thus providing an overt opening example of the genre’s workings.

  • Martial Arts and the Globalization of US and Asian Film Industries
    07 klein (ds) 12/8/04 1:14 pm Page 360 Article Comparative American Studies An International Journal Copyright © 2004 SAGE Publications (London, Thousand Oaks, CA and New Delhi) www.sagepublications.com Vol 2(3): 360–384 DOI: 10.1177/1477570004046776 Martial arts and the globalization of US and Asian film industries Christina Klein Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA Abstract This article investigates how globalization is affecting film industries in the USA and Asia. It argues that these industries are becoming more closely integrated with one another both materially and aesthetically, and that this in turn is leading to the denationalization of individual films and film industries on both sides of the Pacific. The article explores how globalization is experienced differently by different film industries – and by different sectors within individual industries – and how it entails both losses and opportunities for Asian film makers. Taking the contemporary Hollywood and East Asian martial arts film as an exemplary cultural style of globalization, it also looks at how integration involves both cultural homogenization and the production of difference. Specific topics discussed include the growth of Hollywood’s Asian markets, Jackie Chan and the flow of Hong Kong talent into Hollywood, Hollywood remakes of South Korean movies, the resurgence of Asian film industries, Hollywood’s local-language film production and Zhang Yimou’s Hero. Keywords Asian cinema ● Chinese cinema ● Columbia Pictures Film Production Asia ● globalization ● Hero ● Hollywood ● Hong Kong cinema ● Jackie Chan ● Korean cinema ● martial arts Introduction Hollywood today is fascinated with martial arts to an extent unseen since the heyday of Bruce Lee in the early 1970s.
