They can open our eyes, our ears and minds to other experiences, other points of view. They can blow our minds. They can inspire us. They make us laugh, cry and even shake a fist at the screen in anger. They are our constant companion regardless of where, how and when we see them. And for 33 years, the Chicago Latino Film Festival has been blowing and enriching the minds of hundreds of thousands of moviegoers who marvel, laugh, cry, and even shake a fist at the stories, ideas, sights and sounds produced by the Latino diaspora. This year the Festival opens with the truly honest and touching relationship drama “One Night of Love” starring two of Argentina’s top TV stars –Sebastian Wainraich and Carla Peterson– and closes with the Chicago premiere of Elia Schneider’s powerful award-winning drama “Tamara” about Venezuela’s first transgender person elected to that country’s National Assembly. Other highlights include: two very different musicals, Peru’s “Crazy in Love” and Spain’s “At Your Doorstep”; three films set in Medellin, Colombia (“The Animal’s Wife,” Victor Gaviria’s brutal portrait of misogyny in that region; “The Nobodies” about punk life in that city; and the bittersweet romantic drama “That Thing Called Love”); Emilio Ruiz Barrachina’s modern day adaptation of Garcia Lorca’s classic play “Yerma”; and “Tales of Mexico,” an ambitious undertaking featuring eight of Mexico’s most daring filmmakers. This is just the tip of the iceberg. We are showing films that have won major awards at such prestigious film festivals as Sundance, Rotterdam and Venice. We are welcoming the new films from past festival guests Ariel Winograd, Ari Maniel Cruz and Claudia Sainte-Luce, among others. Lastly, as customary, at least a third of our feature-length films were directed by first-time filmmakers (men and women), evidence of the continuing vitality of our cinema. We are also celebrating the 100th anniversary of the birth of Pedro Infante, a legend of the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema, through a special concert at the National Museum of Mexican Arts on April 26 and 27. “Pedro, Mi Amor” is a program featuring some of Infante’s best loved songs performed by flutist Elena Duran and pianist Santiago Piñeirua with clips from his iconic movies. With the Chicago Latino Film Festival we planted a seed in this city and from that seed a beautiful tree named the International Latino Cultural Center was born. This tree has many branches: the Latino Music Festival, now in its 12th season; Film in the Park, also in its 12th season; the monthly Reel Film Club series, already in its 8th year. I am also delighted to announce the upcoming 1st International Latino Theater Festival presented by the newly created Chicago Latino Theater Alliance (CLATA), a consortium that includes the National Museum of Mexican Art, the Puerto Rican Arts Alliance, and the International Latino Cultural Center. As always, I am grateful for the continued support we receive from volunteers, staffers, board members, foundations, the Ibero-American Consular Association and sponsors who strongly believe, like I do, on the need for events like this one in our City.

In the thesis, I explore the health belief systems of pasajeros, examining the syncretic space of the Temple in which Western and Eastern, New Age, biomedical, and shamanic discourses meet and intertwine to create novel sets of health beliefs, practices, and perceptions of the Self.

Prof. Melis Behlil September, 2013 This thesis aims to investigate a recent trend in contemporary American cinema, which I call “bromantic comedy.” These comedy films have been increasingly coming out since the early 2000s. They are defined by their considerable use of gross-out humor, and their depiction of the average American male. Bromantic comedies direct their attention to homosocial interaction, or “bromance”, as well as heterosexual relationships. Since it is a fairly recent phenomenon, there is little relevant academic research conducted on the genre.

  • Shopping for Fangs
    Shopping for Fangs Dir: Quentin Lee and Justin Lin, USA, 1997 A review by Luca Prono, Bologna, Italy Marketed as a manifesto on "GenerAsian X" and representative of a new generation of Asian American film-makers, Shopping for Fangssuccessfully adds a new dimension to the theme of the quest for a hyphenated identity. Most of the characters in the film are apparently completely assimilated to the American ways and do not explicitly brood over the possible clash between their Asian cultural heritage and their present Americanized life-styles. Yet, as the film progresses, it becomes clear that its central characters are living in a phase of transition between different identities. As Edward O'Neill has pointed out, the film itself mirrors self-reflexively this transition in its narrative, one that borrows liberally from such diverse genres as horror, melodrama, thriller and martial arts. Its situations and characters derive from a wide assortment of film icons ranging from John Woo and Quentin Tarantino to Alfred Hitchcock and Brian De Palma, from Kim Novak to Marilyn Monroe. Therefore, Shopping for Fangsaffirms a typically post-modern mode of identity, one that "celebrates the picaresque possibilities of inventing and changing identities, of being different from oneself, of assuming other people's lives and living them as theatrical experience." Set in Los Angeles, the film follows the three parallel, and, for some brief moments, interlocking narratives of Trinh, a lesbian waitress who constantly wears a blond wig and sunglasses, Katherine, an unhappy wife suffering from periods of blackouts and Phil, a lonely accountant working for the corporation of Katherine's husband.

Boston College Electronic Thesis or Dissertation, 2008 Copyright is held by the author, with all rights reserved, unless otherwise noted. Encounters at the End of the World: A Collection of Essays on Werner Herzog “I am my films” Michael Mulhall May 1, 2008 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Introduction 5. Chapter 1: Herzog’s Cultural Framework: Real and Perceived 21. Chapter 2: Herzog the Auteur 35. Chapter 3: Herzog/Kinski 48. Chapter 4: Blurring the Line 59. Works Cited Werner Herzog is one of the most well-known European art-house directors alive today (Cronin viii). Born in 1944 in war-torn Munich, Herzog has been an outsider from the start. He shot his first film, an experimental short, with a stolen camera. He has infuriated and confounded countless actors, producers, crew-members and studios in his lengthy career with his insistence on doing things his own way. Due to this maverick persona and the specific “adventurous madman” mystique he has cultivated over the past forty years, Herzog has attracted a large following worldwide. Herzog is perhaps best known for the lush but unforgiving jungles of Aguirre: Der Zorn Gottes (1972) and Fitzcarraldo (1982) and his contemplative musings on the structures of society in The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser (1974) and Stroszek (1977). Though he has never been a huge commercial success in terms of theater receipts, he has had a relatively impressive recent run at the box office, including the much-heralded Grizzly Man (2005) and his long awaited return to feature filmmaking, Rescue Dawn (2006).

  • Transnational Latin American Cinemas
    Transnational Latin American Cinemas Katy Perry’s 2011 music video, “The One That Got Away,” features Mexican actor Diego Luna as— you guessed it— the one. Silly as it may be, this particular piece of pure art pointed thirteen-year-old me in the direction of another Diego Luna hit: Alfonso Cuarón’s Y tu mamá también (2001) — the first Mexican film I ever saw, which today remains one of my favorite films. I became interested in Mexican cinema, as well as the cinema of the rest of Latin America. And while I wish I could say I didn’t owe this to Katy Perry, it’s important that I do, because it serves as a reminder of the outsider spectator position that I inhabit. This position, in combination with my interest in Latin American cinema, lead me to the decision to research transnational cinema originating from Latin American countries, and therefore to look at the relationship between Latin American cinemas and U.S. audiences. My goal was to learn how U.S. audiences interact with and receive Latin American films and to understand why certain Latin American films go beyond their home country while others do not. While perhaps not all that I have learned about this topic has been necessarily positive, I am pleased to say that Katy Perry is noticeably absent from the research. Latin American films are made available to international audiences through mechanisms of transnational cinema: coproduction, distribution, and international film festival screenings. Why some films do better than others, once they arrive at the proverbial doorstep of international audiences, is a question whose answer is more ambiguous.

DAVINE Bachelor of Arts Honors, Film Studies Western University, London, Ontario, 2007 Master of Arts, Cinema Studies University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, 2010 A dissertation presented to Ryerson University and York University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the program of Communication and Culture Toronto, Ontario, Canada, 2018 ©Lauren Davine 2018 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this dissertation.

While immaturity’s otherness to heteronormative adulthood is a source of fear and anxiety, this otherness is also what makes it desirable–that is, immaturity represents an escape from the pressures and standards of adulthood, signifying an oppositional subjectivity reminiscent of youthful rebellion. Indeed, the oppositional nature of immaturity is ultimately what gives it power as a source of political agency.
