  • The Caretaker: Ambiguity from Page to Stage
    Volume 2 Issue 4 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND March 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 The Caretaker: Ambiguity from page to stage Mariem Souissi Faculty of Arts and Humanities University of Sousse, Tunisia [email protected] Abstract This paper will rivet on the specific techniques used by Clive Donner, the director of The Caretaker movie to underline the ambiguity on the screen stage. It is by analyzing the mise-en scene that we begin to see what are the meanings intended by the director. In other words, analyzing the camera movements, the zooming in and the zooming out , paying attention to the style of actors ‘performance and how objects are placed in the scene would highlight the artistically elusive characteristics of the movie. The editing within the film and the spectators ‘receptions are also very important to grasp the meanings of the work. Keywords: The Caretaker, Mise-en Scene, ambiguity, Filmic techniques, Performance. http://www.ijhcs.com/index.php/ijhcs/index Page 1084 Volume 2 Issue 4 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND March 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 It is noteworthy to mention that in staging a filmic scene, any minor detail becomes meaningful as soon as it is captured by the camera, which is not the case in stage theatre. Film Studies assert that in order to study a film and deconstruct its meaning, we should pay attention to its mise en scene and examine how the film is constructed and shaped (Nelmes 14). In his book Introduction to Film Studies: Critical Approaches, Richard Dyer defines Film Studies as an academic field of study that approaches films theoretically, historically and critically.

  • Reviewer Response to Pinter's the Caretaker
    UDK 821.111.09-2 Pinter H.(497.4) REVIEWER RESPONSE TO PINTER'S THE CARETAKER Tomaz Onic Abstract The Caretaker is one of Harold Pinter's early plays. It was an immediate success, and it drew the attention of many critics, who started judging this contemporary British playwright's works from a new perspective. Therefore, many scholars consider The Caretaker an important turning point in the reception of Pinter's works. The play has seen many stagings all over the world, two of them in Slovenia. This article sets out its most prominent productions, analyses and comments on their critical reviews, and compares these to the response to Pinter in Slovene cultural space. International productions of The Caretaker Harold Pinter's The Caretaker1 was first published in 1959 together with four other plays in the second volume of the author's collected works. It was premiered in April 1960 at the Arts Theatre in London and moved to the Duchess Theatre a month after the first production. This early play by Harold Pinter was enthusiastically ac­ cepted by the general public and the critics. It was his sixth theatre piece, presented only three years after his first two plays, The Room and The Birthday Party. The first reviews of the former were favourable, but, surprisingly, this was not the case with The Birthday Party, which is today one of his most frequently staged pieces; some even number it among the best achievements of contemporary British theatre. Its first pro­ duction ran only a week, and it took most of the critics some time to realise that there was more to it than mere »verbal anarchy«, as Milton Shulman (1958) labelled what later became known as typical pinteresque dialogue.

PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Alexandra Potter | 320 pages | 01 Jun 2014 | Hodder & Stoughton General Division | 9780340919606 | English | London, United Kingdom Carole Baskin's "What's New Pussycat" 'DWTS' Performance Was Filled With Cat References As IMDb celebrates its 30th birthday, we have six shows to get you ready for those pivotal years of your life Get some streaming picks. Title: What's New Pussycat His psychoanalyst Dr. Fassbender can't help him either since he's busy courting one of his patients who in turn longs for Michael. A catastrophe appears on the horizon as all the characters check into the Chateau Chantelle hotel for the weekend not knowing of each other's presence. Written by Robert Zeithammel. Some have "analyzed" this movie with the heavy, combat-boot tone of the cerebral and moral second-millennium spirit. They say it belongs to the past, the bad bad bad 60s, full of irresponsibility and partying, sexual license and depravity. Well I say HA! Forget all those mostly young! It is colorful, full of joy and beautiful people, unpretentious and charming. And in the end, the guy gets the girl and they get married. As a young boomer, watching this is like slipping into Hush Puppies. You may say what you want about or against the "guilty" innocence of that era, but it sure was comfortable! I miss those times. And a note for the moderns: we were not that innocent, we knew that some of this was dangerous ground Looking for some great streaming picks? Check out some of the IMDb editors' favorites movies and shows to round out your Watchlist.

  • Other Places and the Caretaker: an Exploration of the Inner Reality in Harold Pinter‘S Plays
    ISSN 1799-2591 Theory and Practice in Language Studies, Vol. 3, No. 4, pp. 581-588, April 2013 © 2013 ACADEMY PUBLISHER Manufactured in Finland. doi:10.4304/tpls.3.4.581-588 Other Places and The Caretaker: An Exploration of the Inner Reality in Harold Pinter‘s Plays Hongwei Chen School of Foreign Studies, Beijing University of Science and Technology, Beijing, China Abstract—Exploring in his plays an overlapping area where social forces and human instincts interplay and superimpose upon each other, Harold Pinter dramatizes the inner reality of the characters who are trapped in various ambivalent forces, which collide and conflict, thereby producing the paradoxical tension in the subject’s instinct of escape and impulse to stay within. Index Terms—man in modern society, the realm of “the real”, other places, inner reality I. INTRODUCTION If we examine Harold Pinter‘s plays from The Room (1957) to Moonlight (1993), we may find that, however diversified the themes may appear (politics, family, or gender), two narrative models always can be found in them. In the first model, an individual escapes from various forms of ―rooms‖ (either a mysterious club, or family, or the Establishment) and is hounded, seized, interrogated and tortured for his attempt to be a non-conformist. Such characters as Stanley in The Birthday Party (1958), the son in Family Voices (1982), Victor in One for the Road (1984), as well as Fred and Jake in Moonlight, all belong to this category. In the second type of structure, characters are presented within various rooms, to which the characters cling as their territories.

  • PINTER on SCREEN: POWER, SEX & POLITICS (1 July – 31 August) – Curated by Harold Pinter Biographer and Theatre Critic for the Guardian Michael Billington
    Tuesday 19 June 2018, London. To mark the 10th anniversary of the death of one of the most important and influential British playwrights of the last century, HAROLD PINTER, BFI Southbank will host a special two month season – PINTER ON SCREEN: POWER, SEX & POLITICS (1 July – 31 August) – curated by Harold Pinter biographer and theatre critic for The Guardian Michael Billington. Best-known for his work as a playwright, PINTER ON SCREEN will celebrate his contribution to film and television, which was extremely significant, not only writing pioneering plays for television, but also for working on scripts for a varied range of landmark films like Joseph Losey’s The Servant (1963), The French Lieutenant’s Woman (Karel Reisz, 1981) starring Meryl Streep and Jeremy Irons, The Comfort of Strangers (Paul Schrader, 1990) and the 1990 adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s still all-too-relevant The Handmaid’s Tale (Volker Schlöndorff). “‘Truth in drama, is forever elusive. You never quite find it, but the search for it is compulsive.’ – Harold Pinter on receiving the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2005. On this statement, and on Pinter, season curator Michael Billington says: “That applies as much to his work for the screen as it does to the stage with which it shares many qualities: a fascination with the private roots of power, an abiding preoccupation with memory and the deceptiveness of language, a belief in the agency of women. Pinter, from his teenage years when he explored the work of Luis Buñuel, Marcel Carné and Jean Vigo, was always passionately in love with cinema and was proud that the majority of his screenplays were filmed.

  • An Analysis of Dickens' Cinematic Language in Oliver Twist Film Adaptations
    FACULTAD DE FILOSOFÍA Y LETRAS DEPARTAMENTO DE ESTUDIOS INGLESES Grado en Estudios Ingleses TRABAJO FIN DE GRADO An Analysis of Dickens’ Cinematic Language in Oliver Twist Film Adaptations: Blackton, Cowen and Lean. Presentado por Laura Barrero Bayón Tutelado por: Anunciación Carrera de la Red Valladolid, 15 de junio de 2018. 1 Abstract Since the beginning of cinema, scholars and filmmakers have been interested in film adaptations of literary works, whose history is as long as cinema itself. Pioneering auteurs such as Eisenstein or Griffith assert that the key element of the relationship between literature and cinema lies in Dickens’ narrative language. An exceptional illustration of this kind of language can be found in Dicken’s novel Oliver Twist (1838), on which this research has been based to identify and analyse not only its cinematographic language but also the role of Cruikshank’s original illustrations included along with the text. Research on how these aspects have been conveyed to the film adaptations by Blackton (1909), by Cowen (1933) and by Lean (1948) demonstrates that success lies in the understanding and identification of the linguistic techniques that bring up the cinematic nuance. Keywords: cinema, language, film adaptations, Dickens, Oliver Twist, Cruikshank. Resumen Desde los inicios del cine, los académicos y cineastas se han interesado por las adaptaciones cinematográficas de obras literarias, cuya historia es tan larga como el cine mismo. Autores pioneros como Eisenstein o Griffith afirman que la clave de la relación entre literatura y cine reside en el lenguaje narrativo de Dickens. Un ejemplo excepcional de este tipo de lenguaje se encuentra en la novela de Dickens Oliver Twist (1938), en la que se ha basado esta investigación para identificar y analizar no sólo su lenguaje cinematográfico, sino también las ilustraciones originales de Cruikshank incluidas en el texto.

  • Woody Allen: Television As Crisis by Alex Munt
    Woody Allen: Television as Crisis by Alex Munt “Renata Adler said television was an appliance rather than an artform.” Woody Allen in Meetin’ WA, Jean-Luc Godard, 1986 It was in high-school that a precocious Woody Allen (Allan Stewart Konigsberg) started writing jokes for print media. [1. John Baxter, Woody Allen: A Biography (London: Harper Collins, 1998) p. 44)] At seventeen he was published in Nick Kenny’s column for the New York Daily Mirror, then Earl Wilson’s column at the New York Post. [2. Garry Arnold, “Woody Allen on Woody Allen” (1977) in Woody Allen Interviews, Robert E. Kapsis, Kathie Coblentz, eds. (University of Mississippi Press, 2006), p. xxv.] Allen recalls, “One day after school I started typing jokes out and looking at them. And I immediately sold them at ten cents a crack to newspaper columns. I was working immediately so there was never any doubt about what I was going to do”. [3. Ken Kelley, “A Conversation with the Real Woody Allen” (1976) in Woody Allen Interviews, Robert E. Kapsis, Kathie Coblentz, eds. (University of Mississippi Press, 2006), p. 25.] This early commitment to a life of writing would find a diversity of creative outputs: print media, stand-up comedy, radio, theatre, essays, prose and screenwriting for television and feature film – which is the focus of this article. In 1953, Allen enrolled at New York University, taking an arts degree with a major in film production. He lasted just two semesters. [4. John Baxter, Woody Allen: A Biography (London: Harper Collins, 1998) p. 44)] After abandoning a formal education, and harbouring ambitions as a playwright, he turned to private tuition from Lajos Egri, having been an admirer of The Art of Dramatic Writing.

  • PROGRAMME NOTES WHATS UPS.Eps
    TCM BREAKFAST CLUB SCREENING What’s New Pussycat? I 1965 Directed by Clive Donner Zany and freewheeling, What’s New Pussycat? marks Woody Allen’s big screen debut and boasts a cast of iconic 60s actors including Peter O’Toole, Peter Sellers, Ursula Andress and Capucine. TCM writer David Humphrey says the movie – which is being screened to coincide with the release of Peter O’Toole’s latest film, romantic comedy Venus, on January 26 – should be relished as a time-capsule from the Swinging England era.
