Apontamentos Sobre O Corpo Monstruoso
REVISTA LUMEN ET VIRTUS ISSN 2177-2789 VOL. VI Nº 14 DEZEMBRO/2015 APONTAMENTOS SOBRE O CORPO MONSTRUOSO Profª Drª Annateresa Fabris1 http://lattes.cnpq.br/4678648388246134 RESUMO – Representado por seres anômalos reais, Monstros (1932) foi considerado um ataque violento contra os sentimentos e os estômagos do público. As razões do fracasso do filme de Tod Browning serão analisadas a partir da perspectiva da história do monstro a fim de compreender seu repúdio pela crítica e pelo público. PALAVRAS-CHAVE – Monstros; Tod Browning; bizarrices; monstruosidade; sideshow. ABSTRACT – Performed by real oddities Freaks (1932) was considered an onslaught upon the feelings and the stomachs of the audience. The reasons of the failure of Tod Browning’s movie will be examined from the perspective of the monster’s history in order to grasp the aversion of critics and audience. 24 KEYWORDS – Freaks; Tod Browning; oddities; monster; sideshow. Prólogo Em 1923, a Metro Goldwin Mayer adquire por oitocentos dólares os direitos do conto “Spurs” [Esporas], que Tod [Clarence Aaron] Robbins havia publicado em 1917 no Munsey Magazine. Seis anos mais tarde, Tod [Charles Albert] Browning, que já havia dirigido uma película inspirada num trabalho de Robbins, A trindade maldita (The Unholy Three, 1925), é incumbido de transpor “Spurs” para as telas, dando início a uma história complexa, eivada de preconceitos contra o “diferente”. De “Spurs”, o roteiro do filme retém apenas o triângulo amoroso formado pelo anão Jacques Courbé e um casal de amantes, os acrobatas Jeanne Marie (“escultural rubia de tipo amazónico”) e Simon 1Professora Titular aposentada da ECA/USP.

Créalo o no... es tan extraño como parece. En épocas antiguas, cualquier cosa que fuera distinta de lo normal era considerada un presagio de mala suerte o la encarnación del mal. Dioses de la desgracia y la adversidad fueron invariablemente representados bajo la forma de monstruosidades, así también, hechos de injusticia y atrocidad han sido atribuidos a muchos tiranos mutilados y deformes de Europa y de Asia. En la historia, la religión, el folklore y la literatura abundan cuentos de deformes que han alterado el curso del mundo. Goliat, Calaban, Frankenstein, Gloucester, Tom Pouce y Kaiser Wilhelm, son apenas algunos de fama mundial. El accidente de un nacimiento anormal era considerado una desgracia y los niños con malformaciones eran dejados a la intemperie hasta morir. -
