  • Guy Maddin Y El Fin Del Cine: Donde Habitan Los Monstruos Raúl Hernández Garrido [email protected]
    fre Guy Maddin y el fin del cine: donde habitan los monstruos RAúl HeRnández GARRido [email protected] Guy Maddin and the end of cinema: where the monsters dwell Abstract From 1985 Guy Maddin has created an exemplary filmography composed of thirteen films and almost forty shortfilms. By crisscrossing particular techniques of the silent cinema and primitive cinematographies with a very personal theme, he has disrupted the modes of narration and representation, as well as proposing a singular rewriting of the history of cinema. Key words : Silent cinema. Postclassical cinema. Avant-garde. Deconstruction. Simulacrum. Incest Resumen Desde 1985 Guy Maddin ha creado, a través de trece largometrajes y casi cuarenta cortometrajes, una filmogra - fía ejemplar en la que, cruzando técnicas propias de los filmes silentes y de cinematografías primitivas con una temática muy personal, convulsiona los modos de la narración y representación y propone una singular reescri - tura de la historia del cine. Palabras clave: Cine silente. Cine postclásico. Vanguardia. Deconstrucción. Simulacro. Incesto. ISSN. 1137-4802. pp. 107-121 Anclándose en un ya moribundo siglo XX, es en 1985 cuando la muy par - ticular filmografía del canadiense Guy Maddin, tan desigual como fascinan - te, arranca. Para comprender mejor su obra deberíamos volver la mirada a algunos años antes, cuando Maddin, a través de las series documentales de Kevin Brownlow ( Hollywood, 1980 ) descubre y empieza a ver películas silen - tes y a sentirse fascinado por su variedad de formas de expresión. Su primera película, de forma ejemplar, se llama The Dead Father , el padre muerto. The Dead Father (Guy Maddin, 1985) Raúl Hernández Garrido t& 10f8 Junto a la figura del Padre, muerto y sin embargo presente, molesto y penoso, autoritario pero no sujeto a una ley, muchas veces competidor o estúpido adversario del protagonista, otras convertido en un zombi sin voluntad, la personalidad fuerte de la Madre dominará su filmografía.

The festival presents 12 films representing a cross-section of important cinematic works overlooked by audiences, critics and distributors. The films are screened in the 1,500-seat Virginia Theatre, a restored movie palace built in the 1920s. A portion of the festival’s income goes toward on-going renovations at the theatre. The festival brings together the films’ producers, writers, actors and directors to help showcase their work. A film- maker or scholar introduces each film, and each screening is followed by a substantive on-stage Q&A discussion among filmmakers, critics and the audience. In addition to the screenings, the festival hosts a number of academic panel discussions featuring filmmaker guests, scholars and students. The mission of Roger Ebert’s Film Festival is to praise films, genres and formats that have been overlooked.

    1 AROUND THE WORLD IN 11 YEARS... COMING FULL CIRCLE... Dear Fargo Film Festival Audiences, On March 1, 2001 an intrepid band of film lovers held our collective breaths as we waited for the press to show up for the opening press conference of our very first Fargo Film Festival. The press arrived as did award winning filmmakers Rob Nilson and John Hanson to celebrate the screening of their North Dakota-produced and Cannes Film Festival award winner, Northern Lights. On opening night, March 1, 2011, the Fargo Film Festival again celebrates North Dakota culture, history, and film making with The Lutefisk Wars and Roll Out, Cowboy. Over the years, our festival journey has circled the globe from Fargo to Leningradsky to Rwanda to Antarctica, all without leaving the cushy seats of our very own hometown Fargo Theatre. Some of you have been my traveling companions from the very Margie Bailly Emily Beck FARGO THEATRE FARGO THEATRE beginning of this 11 year cinematic tour.

  • From Weimar to Winnipeg: German Expressionism and Guy Maddin Andrew Burke University of Winnipeg (Canada) E-Mail: [email protected]
    ACTA UNIV. SAPIENTIAE, FILM AND MEDIA STUDIES, 16 (2019) 59–79 DOI: 10.2478/ausfm-2019-0004 From Weimar to Winnipeg: German Expressionism and Guy Maddin Andrew Burke University of Winnipeg (Canada) E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. The films of Guy Maddin, from his debut feature Tales from the Gimli Hospital (1988) to his most recent one, The Forbidden Room (2015), draw extensively on the visual vocabulary and narrative conventions of 1920s and 1930s German cinema. These cinematic revisitations, however, are no mere exercise in sentimental cinephilia or empty pastiche. What distinguishes Maddin’s compulsive returns to the era of German Expressionism is the desire to both archive and awaken the past. Careful (1992), Maddin’s mountain film, reanimates an anachronistic genre in order to craft an elegant allegory about the apprehensions and anxieties of everyday social and political life. My Winnipeg (2006) rescores the city symphony to reveal how personal history and cultural memory combine to structure the experience of the modern metropolis, whether it is Weimar Berlin or wintry Winnipeg. In this paper, I explore the influence of German Expressionism on Maddin’s work as well as argue that Maddin’s films preserve and perpetuate the energies and idiosyncrasies of Weimar cinema. Keywords: Guy Maddin, Canadian film, German Expressionism, Weimar cinema, cinephilia. Any effort to catalogue completely the references to, and reanimations of, German Expressionist cinema in the films of Guy Maddin would be a difficult, if not impossible, task. From his earliest work to his most recent, Maddin’s films are suffused with images and iconography drawn from the German films of the 1920s.
