CineRSS : deux ans de cinéma en 365 critiques CineRSS.com ontrairement à l’année dernière où j’avais écrit sur l’expression C cinématographique, j’ai choisi cette année de livrer l’ensemble de mes critiques écrites tout au long des deux dernières années. Au total cela représente trois cent soixante cinq critiques. Une tous les deux jours ! Cet ensemble n’est certainement pas cohérent mais reflète mes errements et découvertes cinématographiques. En fonction de l’humeur de mon degré d’attention, c’était ou bien un film d’action Hollywoodien ou un grand classique du cinéma d’auteur comme je l’ai déjà écrit. Le cinéma est aussi bien une industrie qu’un art. Dans les deux cas, il cherche à divertir. Je pense que l’on peut aussi bien se divertir avec des cascades tellement improbables qu’elles ont été réalisées uniquement derrière un écran bleu ou en faisant plus appel à son intellect. Mais j’ai quand même tendance à préférer où le spectateur est actif. Je pense qu’il est alors nettement plus enrichissant. Cette année a aussi été l’occasion de nouvelles découvertes grâce notamment à deux cinéastes : Robert Bresson et Théo Angelopoulos. Le premier m’a fait découvrir le « cinéma minimaliste ». C’est-à-dire un cinéma dont l’expression est réduite à son strict minimum. Il ne reste alors plus que l’art. D’un autre côté, Théo Angelopoulos a comblé ma « frustration Tarkoskienne ». Andreï Tarkovski n’a réalisé que sept films que j’ai vu au moins deux fois. J’ai aussi beaucoup lu sur ce cinéaste. Et même si je pense que l’on peut découvrir toujours de nouvelles choses en visionnant à nouveau des films aussi riches que ceux de Tarkovski, je suis frustré de ne plus avoir de nouveaux films à découvrir. Imaginez mon plaisir en découvrant les films d’Angelopoulos tellement proches de ceux de Tarkovski par leur aspect poétiques, très ouverts et les longs plans séquences si caractéristiques de ces auteurs. J’ai aussi continué ma découverte de l’univers de Kieslowksi en regardant les dix « épisodes » du Décalogue. Son côté minimaliste, le fait que chaque film n’aborde qu’un seul thème m’a rappelé Bresson. Malheureusement, là aussi, j’ai vu tous ses films. Il ne m’en reste donc plus un seul à découvrir. 2 Je pourrais enfin citer aussi Bergman, Fellini, Fritz Lang dans sa période américaine, quelques films soviétiques de la grande époque des années vingt. Heureusement il me reste encore une foule de films à découvrir comme par exemple ceux de Werner Herzog que je connais encore assez peu. Le cinéma est tellement riche que je ne suis pas près d’en faire le tour. Du côté des productions récentes, il n’y a eu vraiment que deux découvertes cette année : Anna M. et Babel. Ce sont les deux seules et uniques fois cette année où je suis sorti de la salle en me disant : « Waouh ! Quel film ! ». Pour chacun des films présentés, vous trouverez des indications sur le nom du réalisateur, les deux acteurs principaux, le pays de production, la durée. Les synopsis sont pour la plupart issus du site internet allocine.fr. Enfin chacun des films est noté de zéro à quatre étoiles. 3 A a rayé la quasi-totalité de la population mondiale, à l'exception A history of violence d'une ville fortifiée, Bregna, dirigée par une assemblée de scientifiques.

When the publishers cancelled Warrior in 1985 (with two completed issues unpublished due to the cancellation), several companies attempted to convince Moore and Lloyd to let them publish and complete the story. In 1988 DC Comics published a ten-issue series that reprinted the Warrior stories in color, then continued the series to completion. The first new material appeared in issue #7, which included the unpublished episodes that would have appeared in Warrior #27 and #28. Tony Weare drew one chapter ("Vincent") and contributed additional art to two others ("Valerie" and "The Vacation"); Steve Whitaker and Siobhan Dodds worked as colourists on the entire series. The series, including Moore's "Behind the Painted ! Smile" essay and two "interludes" outside the central continuity, then appeared in collected form as a trade The complete film script of V for Vendetta is paperback, published in the US by DC's Vertigo imprint available from the Internet Movie Script Database: (ISBN 0-930289-52-8) and in the UK by Titan Books http://www.imsdb.com/scripts/V-for-Vendetta.html (ISBN 1-85286-291-2).

  • The Depiction of Trauma in Alan Moore's V for Vendetta And

    The Depiction of Trauma in Alan Moore’s V for Vendetta and Watchmen University of Agder English-500 Student: Teri Kourtis Supervisor: Michael J. Prince Spring 2020 / 1 T. Kourtis Abstract This thesis will explore the depiction of trauma in Alan Moore’s graphic novels V for Vendetta and W atchmen . It aims to examine how something as unrepresentable as trauma can be portrayed using a balance of art and words in these two narratives. Writer Alan Moore and illustrators David Lloyd and Dave Gibbons have created alternative worlds with recognizable history and realistic characters who endure traumatic experiences that are presented using iconic language. I hope that my readers will gain a greater appreciation for this type of literature after understanding the potential it has in telling stories of importance and sensitivity surrounding trauma. It offers an alternative way of reading that challenges ordinary ways of thinking and tests our interpretation skills. Alan Moore offers a different way of perceiving history and considering not only our past but our future. / 2 T.

    V for Vendetta Academic Guide(Fin)

    V FOR VENDETTA ACADEMIC READING GUIDE Alan Moore | David Lloyd | 9781401208417 | TP $19.99/$25.99 CAN | Rated M Created by: OVERVIEW The graphic novel V for Vendetta, created by Alan Moore and David Lloyd, is a harrowing and cautionary vision of a postwar future where tyranny is law. Featuring a rich tapestry of settings, characters, allusions, themes, and symbols, this genre-defi ning graphic novel offers readers a powerful, enduring story of the power of the human spirit in the face of overwhelming odds, no matter the costs. The events of V for Vendetta take place in a fi ctional 1990s England, in the years after a mysterious war destroys much of the outside world and a fascist government controls almost every aspect of human life. But even as personal identity and freedom are eroded away, and as citizens deemed undesirable are removed from soci- ety and taken to “resettlement” camps under the guise of protection, a few still fi ght. This includes the enigmatic “V,” the novel’s masked protagonist, who sparks a revolution that serves as the centerpiece of the novel’s intricately crafted plot. Soon V recruits a young female companion, Evey, and together they embark on an at-times morally dubious quest to dismantle England’s fascist government. As their journey takes them deeper into a world of lies, corruption, greed, and unchecked power at the heart of the political system, they expose the rotting core underly- ing the country’s seemingly ordered veneer. First published over 25 years ago, V for Vendetta continues to resonate with readers due to its connection to contemporary themes and issues across politics, religion, education, literature, medicine, and much more.
