  • ADAMS, Phillip
    DON DUNSTAN FOUNDATION 1 DON DUNSTAN ORAL HISTORY PROJECT Phillip ADAMS This is George Lewkowicz for the Don Dunstan Foundation’s Don Dunstan Oral History Project interviewing Phillip Adams on the 1st May 2008 at Phillip Adams’s residence. The topic of interest is the film industry, Phillip’s advice to Don Dunstan on the setting up of the film industry in South Australia and Don and the arts more generally. Phillip, thanks very much for being willing to do this interview. Can you, just for the record, talk briefly about yourself and how you became interested in the film industry? (clock chimes) Well, by the time I got the phone call from Don I’d spent some years persuading, cajoling, bullying, flattering a rapid succession of prime ministers into doing things. My interest in the film industry was simply as a member of an audience for most of my life and it seemed no-one ever considered it remotely possible that Australia make films. We were an audience for films – leaving aside our extraordinary history of film production, which went back to the dawn of time, which none of us knew about; we didn’t know, for example, we’d made 500 films during the Silent Era alone – so, anyway, nothing was happening. The only film productions in Australia were a couple of very boring industrial docos. But once 1956 arrived with television we had to start doing a few things of our own, and long before I started getting fundamental changes in policy and support mechanisms a law was passed.

  • The Cinema of Giorgio Mangiamele
    WHO IS BEHIND THE CAMERA? The cinema of Giorgio Mangiamele Silvana Tuccio Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August, 2009 School of Culture and Communication The University of Melbourne Who is behind the camera? Abstract The cinema of independent film director Giorgio Mangiamele has remained in the shadows of Australian film history since the 1960s when he produced a remarkable body of films, including the feature film Clay, which was invited to the Cannes Film Festival in 1965. This thesis explores the silence that surrounds Mangiamele’s films. His oeuvre is characterised by a specific poetic vision that worked to make tangible a social reality arising out of the impact with foreignness—a foreign society, a foreign country. This thesis analyses the concept of the foreigner as a dominant feature in the development of a cinematic language, and the extent to which the foreigner as outsider intersects with the cinematic process. Each of Giorgio Mangiamele’s films depicts a sharp and sensitive picture of the dislocated figure, the foreigner apprehending the oppressive and silencing forces that surround his being whilst dealing with a new environment; at the same time the urban landscape of inner suburban Melbourne and the natural Australian landscape are recreated in the films. As well as the international recognition given to Clay, Mangiamele’s short films The Spag and Ninety-Nine Percent won Australian Film Institute awards. Giorgio Mangiamele’s films are particularly noted for their style. This thesis explores the cinematic aesthetic, visual style and language of the films.
