Metaphysics – Transcendence – Atheism
"IMAGES" 2021, Vol. XXX, No. 39 METAPHYSICS – TRANSCENDENCE – ATHEISM A product of the nineteenth century, the cinematic arts were born to capture the very material reality present in front of the lens. Erwin Panofsky called this reality “profilmic,” while André Bazin argued that recording the existence of material objects on film fulfilled what he called mankind’s “mummy complex,” the desire to immortalize fleeting entities in the form of images. With time, film outgrew this initial function and began making attempts to depict spiritual realities as well (with films by Carl Theodor Dreyer, Ingmar Bergman, Andrei Tarkovsky, Krzysztof Zanussi, and other artists). First coined by American director and film theorist Paul Schrader to describe the work of Dreyer, Bresson, and Ozu, the phrase “transcendental style” (itself a misnomer, as the term “transcendent style” would be much more fitting here) was soon picked up by fellow authors, who used it to interrogate the transcendent in the work of the three aforementioned directors and other filmmakers (vide: Seweryn Kuśmierczyk’s essay on Tarkovsky and the rich body of literature written on the director). A counterstrain, however, coalesced around neoformalist and cognitivist David Bordwell, who contended that the particular “parametric form,” its style autonomous and autotelic, compelled critics to seek within it a metaphysics that he did not believe could be found in the work of Ozu, Dreyer, or Bresson—a position he elaborated on extensively in his monographs on the work of the former two and essays on films by the latter. Recent Bresson scholarship (vide: Colin Burnett’s monograph) has questioned the validity of this “Schraderian” option even further. -
Lesbianism and the Uncanny in Sheridan Le Fanu's Carmilla
Lesbianism and the Uncanny in Sheridan Le Fanu’s Carmilla Sergio Ramos Torres Trabajo de Fin de Grado en Estudios Ingleses Supervised by Constanza del Río Álvaro Diciembre 2016 Universidad de Zaragoza 0 Contents Introduction 2 1. The vampire in literature and popular culture 5 1.1 Female vampires 10 2. Lesbianism and the uncanny in Carmilla 13 2.1 Contextualisation 13 2.2 Lesbianism and the Uncanny in Carmilla 16 Conclusion 23 Works Cited 25 1 Introduction The figure of the vampire has been present in most cultures, and the meanings and feelings these supernatural creatures represent have been similar across time and space. For human beings they have been a source of fear and superstition, their significance acquiring religious connotations all over the world. The passing of time has modified this ancient horror and the myth has changed little by little, most of the time being softened, giving birth to diverse conceptions and representations that differ a lot from the evil spawn – originating in myth, legend and folklore – that ancient people were afraid of. These creatures have been represented not as part of the human being, but as a nemesis, as the “other”, and as something that is dead but, at the same time, alive, threatening the pure existence of the human by disrupting the carefully constructed borders that civilization has erected between the self and the other, the human and the animal, between life and death. They are, like Rosemary Jackson said, “our relation to death made concrete” (68) and thus, they “disrupt the crucial defining line which separates real life from the unreality of death” (69). -

And the Ship Sails On
And The Ship Sails On by Serge Toubiana at the occasion of the end of his term as Director-General of the Cinémathèque française. Within just a few days, I shall come to the end of my term as Director-General of the Cinémathèque française. As of February 1st, 2016, Frédéric Bonnaud will take up the reins and assume full responsibility for this great institution. We shall have spent a great deal of time in each other's company over the past month, with a view to inducting Frédéric into the way the place works. He has been able to learn the range of our activities, meet the teams and discover all our on-going projects. This friendly transition from one director-general to the next is designed to allow Frédéric to function at full-steam from day one. The handover will have been, both in reality and in the perception, a peaceful moment in the life of the Cinémathèque, perhaps the first easy handover in its long and sometimes turbulent history. That's the way we want it - we being Costa-Gavras, chairman of our board, and the regulatory authority, represented by Fleur Pellerin, Minister of Culture and Communication, and Frédérique Bredin, Chairperson of the CNC, France's National Centre for Cinema and Animation. The peaceful nature of this handover offers further proof that the Cinémathèque has entered into a period of maturity and is now sufficiently grounded and self-confident to start out on the next chapter without trepidation. But let me step back in time. Since moving into the Frank Gehry building at 51 rue de Bercy, at the behest of the Ministry of Culture, the Cinémathèque française has undergone a profound transformation. -

Isabelle Huppert
Les Visiteurs du Soir présente ISABELLE HUPPERT LIT SADE Juliette et Justine, le vice et la vertu © Peter Lindbergh Textes réunis par Raphaël Enthoven Création le 27 janvier 2013 Palais des Beaux-Arts de Bruxelles (Bozar) En tournée en 2013-2014 Booking - Fabienne Calonier 01 44 93 02 02 / [email protected] PRÉSENTATION On présente souvent l’œuvre de Sade comme une «antiutopie», une dystopie où le meurtre, la violence sexuelle, l’anthropophagie sont loués pourvu qu’ils permettent aux puissants de jouir sans entrave. Isabelle Huppert prête sa voix à deux figures emblématiques de l’œuvre de Sade : Justine et Juliette, deux sœurs aux destins opposés, l’une perdue par la vertu, l’autre triomphant par le vice. À travers elles, Raphaël Enthoven interroge le malaise qui pèse sur la production littéraire et le message du sulfureux écrivain : « Je ne m'explique pas la raison pour laquelle le Marquis de Sade continue - légitimement - de nous choquer. (…) Son éloge du vice et l'outrance des orgies qu'il décrit ne suffisent pas à comprendre la persistance du dégoût qu'il inspire. Le mal vient de plus loin. Sade, c'est l'ombre des Lumières, la face cachée du soleil. Son immoralisme est d'abord un amoralisme. Sous les imprécations du mécréant contre la « chimère déifique », il faut entendre le refus de croire que le monde est là pour nous faire plaisir. C'est peut-être là qu'il est indigeste : dans la constance avec laquelle il construit une philosophie - et même une éthique - sur le socle d'un monde glacial et inhumain ». -

The first was the news that, after 22 years as délégué général, Gilles Jacob stepped up to become Président while handing down the reins to Thierry Frémaux, the latter now divides his time between Cannes and duties as head of the Institute Lumière in Lyons. The other was the presence on the Croisette of seven previous Palme d’Or directors: Francis Ford Coppola (The Conversation, 1974, and Apocalypse Now, 1979), Ermanno Olmi (The Tree of Wooden Clogs, 1978), Shohei Imamura (The Ballad of Narayama, 1983, and The Eel, 1997), David Lynch (Wild at Heart, 1990), Joel and Ethan Coen (Barton Fink, 1991), and Abbas Kiarostami (The Taste of Cherries, 1997). One might add, too, that over the past quarter century each of their eight award-winning films helped considerably to set the tone and style of the world’s mostrevered film festival. Apocalypse Now Redux In the case of Apocalypse Now -- aka Apocalypse Now Redux, to denote a new version of an old film -- Francis Ford Coppola returned to Cannes with the completed version of his work-in-progress presented here 22 years ago. No less than 53 minutes were added to the re-edited 203-minute version, in addition to a re-mastered Technicolor transfer and a re-mastered soundtrack. -
2. the Slow Pulse of the Era: Carl Th. Dreyer's Film Style
2. THE SLOW PULSE OF THE ERA: CARL TH. DREYER’S FILM STYLE C. Claire Thomson Introduction The very last shot of Carl Th. Dreyer’s very last film, Gertrud (1964), devotes forty-five seconds to the contemplation of a panelled door behind which the eponymous heroine has retreated with a wave to her erstwhile lover. The camera creeps backwards to establish Dreyer’s valedictory tableau on which it lingers, immobile, for almost thirty seconds: the door and a small wooden stool beside it. The composition is of such inert, grey geometry that, in its closing moments, this film resembles nothing so much as a Vilhelm Hammershøi painting, investing empty domestic space with the presences that have passed through its doors and hallways. If, in this shot, the cinematic image fleetingly achieves the condition of painting, it is the culmination of a directorial career predicated on the productive tension between movement and stillness, sound and silence, rhythm and slowness. At the end of Gertrud, where the image itself slows into calm equilibrium, we witness the end point of an entropic career. As Dreyer’s film style slowed, so, too, did his rate of production. The intervals between his last four major films – the productions that write Dreyer into slow cinema’s prehistory – are measured in decades, not years: Vampyr (1932), Vredens Dag (Day of Wrath, 1943), Ordet (The Word, 1955), Gertrud (1964).1 Studios were reluctant to engage a director who made such difficult films so inefficiently or, rather, made such slow films so slowly. The fallow periods between feature films, however, obliged Dreyer to undertake other kinds of work.
