Melissa [00:00:57] The Handmaiden has a really interesting lineage. It's an adaptation of Sarah Waters' 2002 novel Fingers Smith. Stephanie [00:01:04] Waters' novel is set in Victorian-era Britain and it's sort of a crime story, historical mystery and lesbian romance. -

Cultural Production in Transnational Culture: an Analysis of Cultural Creators in the Korean Wave
International Journal of Communication 15(2021), 1810–1835 1932–8036/20210005 Cultural Production in Transnational Culture: An Analysis of Cultural Creators in the Korean Wave DAL YONG JIN1 Simon Fraser University, Canada By employing cultural production approaches in conjunction with the global cultural economy, this article attempts to determine the primary characteristics of the rapid growth of local cultural industries and the global penetration of Korean cultural content. It documents major creators and their products that are received in many countries to identify who they are and what the major cultural products are. It also investigates power relations between cultural creators and the surrounding sociocultural and political milieu, discussing how cultural creators develop local popular culture toward the global cultural markets. I found that cultural creators emphasize the importance of cultural identity to appeal to global audiences as well as local audiences instead of emphasizing solely hybridization. Keywords: cultural production, Hallyu, cultural creators, transnational culture Since the early 2010s, the Korean Wave (Hallyu in Korean) has become globally popular, and media scholars (Han, 2017; T. J. Yoon & Kang, 2017) have paid attention to the recent growth of Hallyu in many parts of the world. Although the influence of Western culture has continued in the Korean cultural market as well as elsewhere, local cultural industries have expanded the exportation of their popular culture to several regions in both the Global South and the Global North. Social media have especially played a major role in disseminating Korean culture (Huang, 2017; Jin & Yoon, 2016), and Korean popular culture is arguably reaching almost every corner of the world. -

A Consolidation of Sra and False Memory Data
A CONSOLIDATION OF SRA AND FALSE MEMORY DATA JAMES QUANNovember 1996 Portland, Oregon The purpose of this paper is to consolidate and present some of the major data for those skeptical of the existence of Satanic Ritual Abuse (SRA) and to suggest more mutual affirmation in pursuit of the truth in this area. This paper, nonetheless, attempts to critically examine both sides of the debate, namely:critical thinking and belief, “no official” evidence, the context of evidence, actual corroborative evidence (including a map of the McMartin Preschool tunnels), false memory, the sharp rise in MPD/DID diagnoses, and alternate explanations for the profound similarities in child and adult accounts.In light of the semantic difficulties inherent in “memories” it is important to avoid overgeneralizing on either side, and yet to fully accept that for which both memory and corroboration exists. 1. NATURE OF BELIEF No doubt, new experiences can broaden our perspectives.It is therefore not surprising that in a 1991 informal survey, 93% of APA therapists who have personal experience with adult SRA survivors stated they believe the memories of SRA are accurate. Contrary to accusations, many have been skeptical at first (Young, et al, 1990; Friesen, 1990; Calof, 1994), but:1) The quality of therapists’ experiences with their clients was sufficient to broaden their criteria for the existence of this crime; 2)There are extensive similarities in the accounts from both young children and adults throughout the country, many with minimal therapist suggestion and minimal cultural exposure; and 3) There is corroboration in some cases, yet for therapists to file reports with law enforcement would endanger the vital trust-based relationship and would not be in the client’s best interest for safety or privacy. -

THE POLITICS of HYSTERIA in DAVID CRONENBERG's “THE BROOD” Kate Leigh Averett a Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The
THE POLITICS OF HYSTERIA IN DAVID CRONENBERG’S “THE BROOD” Kate Leigh Averett A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Art History in the School of Arts and Sciences Chapel Hill 2017 Approved by: Carol Magee Cary Levine JJ Bauer © 2017 Kate Leigh Averett ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Kate Leigh Averett: The Politics of Hysteria in David Cronenberg’s “The Brood” (Under the direction of Carol Magee) This thesis situates David Cronenberg’s 1979 film The Brood within the politics of family during the late 1970s by examining the role of monstrous birth as a form of hysteria. Specifically, I analyze Cronenberg’s monstrous Mother, Nola Carveth, within the role of the family in the 1970s, when the patriarchal, nuclear family is under question in American society. In his essay The American Nightmare: Horror in the 70s critic Robin Wood began a debate surrounding Cronenberg’s early films, namely accusing the director of reactionary misogyny and calling for a political critique of his and other horror director’s work. The debate which followed has sidestepped The Brood, disregarding it as a complication to his oeuvre due to its autobiographical basis. This film, however, offers an opportunity to apply Wood’s call for political criticism to portrayals of hysteria in contemporary visual culture; this thesis takes up this call and fills an important interpretive gap in the scholarship surrounding gender in Cronenberg’s early films. iii This thesis is dedicated to my family for believing in me, supporting me and not traumatizing me too much along the way. -

Coming Into Frame
The Independent Weekly: Coming into Frame http://indyweek.com/durham/2004-04-07/ae.html Advertisement Coming into Frame A conference at Duke Law School looks at how filmmakers and musicians get in trouble with the law B Y F I O N A M O R G A N Documentary films are records of our culture, and as they gain popularity, they're also becoming a hybrid of information and entertainment, a viable venue for alternative ideas and cultural criticism. But documenting a culture full of copyrighted images, sounds, words and ideas can be legally treacherous. April 7, 2004 Duke Law School added another A R T S F E A T U R E dimension to the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival by hosting "Framed!" a day-long conference on "how law constructs and constrains culture." It brought faculty at the law school together with filmmakers, entertainment lawyers, academics and others to discuss how legal issues affect the practical and creative concerns of making films and music. The day reached its climax when a musician cursed out a lawyer in the audience. Chris Hegedus, co-director of The War Room and Startup.com, showed footage from several of the films she made with her husband and creative partner D.A. Pennebaker, who sat in the audience--along with the couple's attorney. A clip from Startup.com captured the enthusiasm of the dotcom boom by following two entrepreneurs to a fast food restaurant, where one sings along with the Billy Joel song "Piano Man." Hegedus loved the scene, but couldn't afford to license the song. -
