  • Bollywood Lens Syllabus
    Bollywood's Lens on Indian Society Professor Anita Weiss INTL 448/548, Spring 2018 [email protected] Mondays, 4-7:20 pm 307 PLC; 541 346-3245 Course Syllabus Film has the ability to project powerful images of a society in ways conventional academic mediums cannot. This is particularly true in learning about India, which is home to the largest film industries in the world. This course explores images of Indian society that emerge through the medium of film. Our attention will be focused on the ways in which Indian society and history is depicted in film, critical social issues being explored through film; the depicted reality vs. the historical reality; and the powerful role of the Indian film industry in affecting social orientations and values. Course Objectives: 1. To gain an awareness of the historical background of the subcontinent and of contemporary Indian society; 2. To understand the sociocultural similarities yet significant diversity within this culture area; 3. To learn about the political and economic realities and challenges facing contemporary India and the rapid social changes the country is experiencing; 4. To learn about the Indian film industry, the largest in the world, and specifically Bollywood. Class format Professor Weiss will open each class with a short lecture on the issues which are raised in the film to be screened for that day. We will then view the selected film, followed by a short break, and then extensive in- class discussion. Given the length of most Bollywood films, we will need to fast-forward through much of the song/dance and/or fighting sequences.

  • Brief Historical Overview A. Indus Valley Civilization
    Brief Historical Overview A. Indus Valley civilization (3,000-1,500 B.C.) 1. 3,000-2,000 B.C.: high civilization, urban, literate, settled agriculture; Harappa/Mohenjo Daro (first grid plan cities) 2. 2,000-1,500 B.C.: Indo-Aryan invasion, pushed Dravidians South, and brought an Aryan group which had a strong hierarchical division between priests, warriors and nomads, and a language similar to Sanskrit (an Indo-Aryan/Indo-European language) B. Vedic Age - 1500 – 1000 BC 1. Vedas: poetic Sanskrit hymns passed down orally for thousands of years ( mostly fire sacrifices, chants, and spells) 2. Rig Veda: 1028 Hymns of praise to Aryan gods (personified forces of nature). C. Classical period (600 B.C. to 600 A.D.): Articulation of Hinduism (Vedas, Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita); establishment of varna system (Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, Shudras) - which provided the foundation of the present jajmani system (to be discussed Week Three) D. Islamic period: invasion by Mahmud of Ghazni in 1057 A.D., from Afghanistan; followed by the Sultanate of Delhi (1206-1526); the great Mughal empire (1527-1857): best known emperors were Akbar, Jehangir and Shah Jehan (builder of the Taj Mahal); effective rule ended in 1748. Akbar created a political system which provided a synthesis of the great diversities in India, which provides a model for accommodation between groups today. [Note: Be thinking of this as we watch Jodhaa Akbar.] E. The British Raj 1. First entered as the British East India Company in Bengal. 2. Established various kinds of taxation and land tenure systems, and organized groups (e.g., tribes, zamindars) into new forms.

  • Gendered Mobility, Legacy and Transformative Sacrifice in the Screen Stories of Susanne Bier
    Networking Knowledge Position-in-frame (Jun. 2017) Position-in-frame: gendered mobility, legacy and transformative sacrifice in the screen stories of Susanne Bier. CATH MOORE, Deakin University ABSTRACT An integral connection point between the screenplay and reader/viewer is the protagonist’s transformative journey. The construction of this narrative backbone is critical to the articulation of overarching thematic concerns and story premise but also reflects the story creator’s worldview- one often coloured by representations of gender. The Hollywood model certainly divides narrative function along gender lines but does this representation hold true within a different cultural context? This article examines the selected screen stories of Danish director Susanne Bier whose partnership with screenwriter Anders Thomas Jensen is one of Denmark’s most successful film partnerships. Employing a case study methodology I examine the dramatic function of and agency afforded screen characters and the critical dynamic between cultural landscape, practitioner preference and narrative inquiry. Key to this address is an exploration of mobility, legacy and sacrifice as textual considerations of gender and its utilisation as transnational narrative strategy. KEYWORDS Transnational, mobility, transformative, collaboration, gaze Refocusing a masculinised gaze? With persistent ubiquity Hollywood continues to cast a dominant shadow over much of the global film & TV landscape. Similarly pervasive is the figurehead of such industrial influence - the male protagonist

  • MARCEL CAMUS Quel Est Le Point Commun Entre Jacques Becker
    MARCEL CAMUS Quel est le point commun entre Jacques Becker, Vinicius de Moraes, Jorge Amado, Bourvil et Barack Obama ? Marcel Camus, un réalisateur ardennais passionné de voyage et empreint d’humanité et de fraternité. Comme souvent, tout a commencé par une rencontre. Lors de la vente de livres organisée par les Amis de la bibliothèque, je discute avec Gérard Tardif à qui j’apprends que je suis le fils de Marcel Camus. Il me propose alors de participer à Signets et d’écrire un article sur mon père. Cette proposition me rappelle un hasard, une anecdote étonnante. Lors d’un trajet pour me rendre à Paris, je prends un exemplaire de la Gazette du Val d’Oise abandonné sur une banquette du Transilien. Je le feuillette négligemment. Je tombe, c’est vraiment le mot, sur un article concernant la sortie en DVD du film Le Mur de l’Atlantique. Il est écrit : « En juin 1970, pour les besoins du Mur de l’Atlantique de Marcel Camus, Bourvil se rendra successivement à Saint-Leu-La-Forêt, dans la vallée de Chauvry (…)». Lorsque nous avons décidé de quitter Paris pour la banlieue avec ma femme, nous n’avions jamais entendu parler de Saint-Leu-La-Forêt. C’est le hasard des balades qui nous a permis de découvrir cette charmante ville. Apprendre que mon père était venu tourner ici, m’a évidemment touché. Marcel Camus et Bourvil Premières mises en scène en captivité Marcel Camus est né en 1912 à Chappes, près de Charleville Mézières, le pays de Rimbaud. Il n’a jamais été nostalgique du climat rude des Ardennes.

Ellis Auditorium Course Syllabus, Spring 2017 READ THIS DOCUMENT CAREFULLY! Welcome to the Spring Cinema Series… a unique opportunity to learn about cinema in an interdisciplinary, cinematheque-style environment open to the general public! Throughout the term we will invite a variety of special guests to enrich your understanding of the films in the series. The films will be preceded by formal introductions and followed by public discussions. You are welcome and encouraged to bring guests throughout the term! This is not a traditional class, therefore it is important for you to review the course assignments and due dates carefully to ensure that you fulfill all the requirements to earn the grade you desire. We want the Cinema Series to be both entertaining and enlightening for students and community alike. Welcome to our college film club! COURSE DESCRIPTION This course will introduce students to one of the most powerful cultural and social communications media of our time: cinema. The successful student will become more aware of the complexity of film art, more sensitive to its nuances, textures, and rhythms, and more perceptive in “reading” its multilayered blend of image, sound, and motion. The films, texts, and classroom materials will cover a broad range of domestic, independent, and international cinema, making students aware of the culture, politics, and social history of the periods in which the films were produced.

Doordarshan have generously extended media partnership to the conference. Images in the brochure are selected from Sarai Archive collections. Sponsors Media Partner 2 The Idea Remembering legendary beginnings provides us the occasion to redefine and make contemporary the history we set out to honour. We need to complicate the idea of origins and `firsts’ because they highlight some dimensions of film culture and usage over others, and obscure the wider network of media technologies, cultural practices, and audiences which made cinema possible. In India, it is a matter of debate whether D.G. Phalke's Raja Harishchandra (1913), popularly referred to as the first Indian feature film, deserves that accolade. As Rosie Thomas has shown, earlier instances of the story film can be identified, includingAlibaba (Hiralal Sen, 1903), an Arabian Nights fantasy which would point to the presence of a different cultural universe from that provided by Phalke's Hindu mythological film. Such a revisionary history is critical to our research agenda.
