  • Video Catalogue Eric Roberts October 28, 2004
    Video Catalogue Eric Roberts October 28, 2004 AN ACT OF CONSCIENCE, Robbie Leppzer,1997, 1:30. This film follows the history of Randy Kehler and Betsy Corner,two tax resisters from Colrain, Massachusetts. After years of refusing to pay war taxes, the Federal Government seized their home and sold it to pay the arrears. The film chronicles the campaign of nonviolent resistance to save their home but also explores the class and political conflicts that arise between the resisters and the family that buys the home. THE ADVENTURES OF PRISCILLA: QUEEN OF THE DESERT, Stephen Elliot, 1994, 1:42. The story line of the film involves a group of three drag performers from the Sydneygay nighclubs who drive their lavender bus, Priscilla, across the desert to perform in Alice Springs. The fun comes from the energy that the trio and supporting cast bring to the adventure, which ends up being a wonderfully funnyand life-affirming tale. AGAINST THE CURRENT,Dmitri Delov, The Glasnost Film Festival, 1988, 0:27. ‘‘This is a film about ecological crime. Despite being labeled extremists, the residents of Kirishi protest a major syn- thetic protein plant. ‘Wecouldn’tbreathe, we coughed, we buried our children . .. but we couldn’tput up with it anymore,’ayoung woman shouts indignantly at a rally.’’[from the film notes] ALICE’S RESTAURANT,Arthur Penn, 1969, 1:51. At one level, this is the story told by Arlo Guthrie’ssong, with the half-a-ton of garbage, the twenty-seven8x10 col- ored glossy photographs, and the draft induction center where you get injected, inspected, detected, infected, neglected, and selected.

Flanagan, Ph.D. University of Pittsburgh, 2015 This dissertation argues that discussions of war representation that privilege the nationalistic, heroic, and redemptively sacrificial strand of storytelling that dominate popular memory in Britain ignore a whole counter-history of movies that view war as an occasion to critique through devices like humor, irony, and existential alienation. Instead of selling audiences on what Graham Dawson has called “the pleasure culture of war” (a nationally self-serving mode of talking about and profiting from war memory), many texts about war are motivated by other intellectual and ideological factors. Each chapter includes historical context and periodizing arguments about different moments in British cultural history, explores genre trends, and ends with a comparative analysis of representative examples.
