  • It's a Woman's World: Almodóvar's Fighting Girls Vs. the Struggles Of
    It’s a Woman’s World: Almodóvar’s Fighting Girls vs. the Struggles of the 90s Casey Watson Marshall University Spanish Capstone Watson 2 Pedro Almodóvar is a well-known director that centers his films around his home country of Spain. Almodóvar was one of the heads of the arts movement called La Movida Madrileña. Dr. Mark Allinson wrote the book A Spanish Labyrinth: Films of Pedro Almodóvar, which analyzes Almodóvar’s background and breaks down his films, “Pedro Almodóvar symbolized free and democratic Spain – as its chronicler and as its agent provocateur…” (Allinson 3). Almodóvar has been seen as a provocateur for his shock-filled and controversial films. His films have been seen as a starter of a movement of liberating Spain from its oppressed past and a look into the dark sides of the world. Almodóvar used his film, All about My Mother to fight against the oppression of women and the LGBTQ community from Spain’s history and to bring forth the struggles that were faced in the 1990s. The oppression of these groups is rooted in Spain’s history that goes back to the coup d’état of the Republic and the dictatorship of Franco. The Republic, 1931-1939, was a golden age of for women in Spain. “According to the historian Mirta Núñez (2004), the Republic prompted women to have and seek an autonomous presence in the public sphere, a presence not subordinated to men. It pushed them to seek and find paid employment in order to make a living on their own, and it also tried to instill equality in early education” (Ayerra 247).

  • CELEBRATING FORTY YEARS of FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT 39 Years, 2 Months, and Counting…
    5 JAN 18 1 FEB 18 1 | 5 JAN 18 - 1 FEB 18 88 LOTHIAN ROAD | FILMHOUSECinema.COM CELEBRATING FORTY YEARS OF FILMS WORTH TALKING ABOUT 39 Years, 2 Months, and counting… As you’ll spot deep within this programme (and hinted at on the front cover) January 2018 sees the start of a series of films that lead up to celebrations in October marking the 40th birthday of Filmhouse as a public cinema on Lothian Road. We’ve chosen to screen a film from every year we’ve been bringing the very best cinema to the good people of Edinburgh, and while it is tremendous fun looking back through the history of what has shown here, it was quite an undertaking going through all the old programmes and choosing what to show, and a bit of a personal journey for me as one who started coming here as a customer in the mid-80s (I know, I must have started very young...). At that time, I’d no idea that Filmhouse had only been in existence for less than 10 years – it seemed like such an established, essential institution and impossible to imagine it not existing in a city such as Edinburgh. My only hope is that the cinema is as important today as I felt it was then, and that the giants on whose shoulders we currently stand feel we’re worthy of their legacy. I hope you can join us for at least some of the screenings on this trip down memory lane... And now, back to the now.

  • Bicycle Thieves
    BICYCLE THIEVES Vittorio De Sica Sub : Film Studies (FE 3) By : Farah Faisal 2018-2021 Vittorio De Sica • Italian director and actor, a leading figure in the neorealistmovement. • Four of the films he directed won Academy Awards: Sciuscià and Bicycle Thieves(honorary), while Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow and Il giardino dei Finzi Contini won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. • Bicycle Thieves helped establish the permanent Best Foreign Film Award. These two films are considered part of the canon of classic cinema.Bicycle Thieves was cited by Turner Classic Movies as one of the 15 most influential films in cinema history.[ Analysis • The setting of this movie takes place in post-war Rome, where economic struggles are commonplace. • The film clearly contains many elements of the Classical Hollywood Narrative (the ending being an important exception), and it makes excellent use of film form, mise-en-scene, and cinematography to tell the story in a compelling way. • The film follows Antonio Ricci, the main character, during his search for his stolen bicycle. • The film focuses on the main character, Antonio Ricci, and his son, Bruno, throughout. Antonio’s main goal is to get a job, but it quickly changes into the main plot of the movie: to locate his stolen bicycle so that he can return to work. • The film progresses in a logical, linear fashion, having no major lapses in time. In addition, viewers are taken on an emotional journey, feeling the frustration and desperation of Antonio as his search continues. • While the film meets many of the characteristics of the Classical Hollywood Narrative, there was one important difference: There was no happy ending in this film.

  • Representing History and the Filmmaker in the Frame
    REPRESENTING HISTORY AND THE FILMMAKER IN THE FRAME Trent Griffiths* Resumo: A presença do realizador no enquadramento representa uma relação única entre o documentário e a História em que o realizador se envolve na história social através da sua experiência pessoal e enquanto autor de uma representação. O realizador no enquadramento é, também, um representante do momento histórico, ao explorar de modo reflexivo o encontro com o processo de mediação e auto-representação que caracteriza a sociedade pós-moderna. Palavras-chave: subjetividade, auto-reflexividade, realizador no enquadramento. Resumen: La presencia del director en el encuadre representa una relación úni- ca entre el documental y la historia, en la cual el director se involucra en la historia social a través de su experiencia personal como autor de una representación. El director en el encuadre es también un representante del momento histórico, al explorar de modo reflexivo el encuentro con el proceso de mediación y auto-representación que caracteriza a la sociedad posmoderna. Palabras clave: subjetividad, auto-reflexividad, director en el encuadre. Abstract: The presence of the filmmaker as a subject in the documentary frame represents a unique relationship between documentary film and history, where the filmmaker engages with social history through their personal experience of authoring a representation of it. This paper explores how the tension between the filmmaker’s presence as an author and as a subject enacts a kind of self-reflexivity that recasts the possibilities of representing history through documentary film. Keywords: Subjectivity, self-reflexivity, filmmaker in the frame. Résumé: La présence du réalisateur dans l’image cinématographique témoigne d’une relation unique entre documentaire et histoire : le réalisateur s’engage dans l’his- toire sociale à travers d’une expérience personnelle et comme auteur d’une représen- tation.

  • World War II Meets French 331: Using Au Revoir Les Enfants to Discuss Religion, Ethics, And
    World War II Meets French 331: Using Au revoir les enfants to Discuss Religion, Ethics, and Values _________________________________ Laura Dennis-Bay University of the Cumberlands Williamsburg, Kentucky Abstract This paper examines the treatment of religious and ethical themes in relation to the holocaust in Louis Malle’s film Au revoir les enfants, and suggests ways in which the film can enable discussion of religion, ethics and values in the French classroom.The film raises issues of philosophical and spiritual significance as it forces the viewer to grapple with some of the most atrocious events in human history. “Can we watch a movie?” Many college foreign language profes- sors hear all too often some variation of this refrain. Whatever the response, it seems that more often than not, the request is followed by something like “my high school teacher let us watch Beauty and the Beast in French.” Already suspecting, perhaps fearing the answer, the instructor might re- spond “Oh, the beautiful black and white film by Surrealist director and poet Jean Cocteau?” The answer, too many times, is a perplexed “No, I mean the Disney cartoon,” at which point it’s time to move on. This is not to argue against the use of film in the classroom. In fact, in the past few years I have added an increasing number of films at the Intermediate level and beyond, and even developed an entire course on film adaptations of literary works. Not only do films in the target language en- courage development of linguistic skills, particularly listening, in some cases they also serve as valuable cultural and historical artifacts.

  • The Filmic Qualities of Tennessee Williams' Plays and Stories, Their
    PEDRO ALMODÓVAR’S “HOMAGE” TO TENNESSEE WILLIAMS MICHAEL S. D. HOOPER “A Streetcar Named Desire has marked my life.”1 The filmic qualities of Tennessee Williams’ plays and stories, their perceived adaptability and the writer’s own willingness to explore the possibilities of an emergent Hollywood cinema in the early part of his career have contributed in no small part to the wide reach of his success and reputation. Indeed, his experimentation with dramatic forms, evident as early as 1944 with The Glass Menagerie and its “plastic theatre”,2 has been seen as an extension of the techniques Williams no doubt assimilated from a youth spent in movie houses: The drama of Tennessee Williams derives its lyric naturalism from the adaptation of the modern short story for the cinematic theatre. Throughout the canon, film techniques undermine the conventions of stage realism. Music comes out of nowhere. Lighting is symbolic.3 Williams often seems to have had one eye on a broader canvas, one which eschews the limitations of theatrical mimesis and which measurably assisted the transition of his work to the big screen. Notwithstanding these artistic overlaps, we have, in the post-war Hollywood versions of his plays, a second Tennessee Williams, one that may, for a variety of reasons, have reached a receptive public 1 Manuela in Todo sobre mi madre, directed by Pedro Almodóvar, El Deseo, 1999. 2 In his “Production Notes” for The Glass Menagerie, Williams writes about this as a concept that “must take the place of the exhausted theatre of realistic conventions”.
