  • L'interférence Musicale Au Cinéma, À La Télévision Et Dans Le Jeu Vidéo
    Université de Montréal L’interférence musicale au cinéma, à la télévision et dans le jeu vidéo par Andréane Morin-Simard Département d’histoire de l’art et d’études cinématographiques Faculté des arts et des sciences Mémoire présenté à la Faculté des études supérieures en vue de l’obtention du grade de Maître ès arts (M.A.) en études cinématographiques Août, 2014 © Andréane Morin-Simard, 2014 Résumé L’omniprésence de la musique populaire dans le paysage médiatique contemporain fait en sorte qu’il est fréquent de retrouver la même chanson dans plusieurs trames sonores. En s’appuyant sur des théories de l’intertextualité et de la communication, ce mémoire cherche à définir la relation qui s’établit entre deux ou plusieurs oeuvres narratives et / ou interactives partageant une chanson, ainsi qu’à appréhender les effets de ces recontextualisations multiples sur l’expérience spectatorielle et vidéoludique. Le premier chapitre examine les principales fonctions narratives et ludiques de la musique à l’aide d’une synthèse des principaux travaux sur la musique de film, de télévision et de jeu vidéo. Le deuxième chapitre interroge la notion de référence dans le contexte des usages répétés d’une même chanson populaire. Le concept d’interférence musicale est proposé à partir de différentes déclinaisons du terme « interférence » issues des travaux de Michel Serres, Sébastien Babeux et Philip Tagg. Les assises théoriques sont appliquées à l’analyse des trajectoires médiatiques respectives de deux chansons aux chapitres trois et quatre. La figure du réseau est finalement déployée afin d’illustrer la complexité des relations entre les œuvres intégrant une même chanson à leur mise en scène.

  • The Vanishing and Nightwatch
    The Vanishing and Nightwatch By Steven Jay Schneider Spring 2002 Issue of KINEMA REPACKAGING RAGE: THE VANISHING AND NIGHTWATCH It’s the same movie, only completely different. It follows the same plot, except where it changes everything. - Desmond Howe, on The Vanishing(1) As for the work of Bornedal, I’d best reserve comment. ...Maybe he looked at the final cut and said, ”Mik bortaagë dåntü ødån!” (”This is f...in’ great!”). Maybe it’s a great film in Denmark, but it’s a terrible, terrible movie in America. - Shane Ham, on Nightwatch(2) Sometimes the devil is in the details. - Barney Cousins (Jeff Bridges) in The Vanishing In 1988, Spoorloos, a Dutch thriller directed by George Sluizer, premiered in the Netherlands to packed houses and rave reviews. Six years later, in 1994, Ole Bornedal’s Danish thriller Nattevagten was released in its home country, also to critical and commercial acclaim. Besides evincing a clear Hitchcockian influence, both pictures were made on relatively low budgets, both exhibit a bizarre sense of humour, and both took home multiple awards at prestigious European film festivals. In 1993, The Vanishing, a big-budget Hollywood thriller produced by 20th Century Fox, made its debut on screens throughout the United States after a great deal of fanfare. Five years later, Dimension Films (the so-called ”genre division” of Miramax), released a thriller of its own entitled Nightwatch. Both films were financial and critical failures, condemned for their inability to generate more than a modicum ofsuspense. That is not all they have in common: both films star big-name actors, both are distinctly unfunny, and both were completely forgotten during awards time.

  • NANCY TRAVIS Is One of Those Actresses Whose Face and Voice You Know, Even If the Name Doesn’T Always Ring a Bell
    NANCY TRAVIS is one of those actresses whose face and voice you know, even if the name doesn’t always ring a bell. She has carved out a remarkably consistent and multi-pronged career that began on the New York stage, shifted to the big screen with a key role in the blockbuster hit “Three Men and a Baby,” and finally transported her to television with star turns in the CBS comedies “Almost Perfect” and “Becker” and, currently, as the wife on TBS’s “The Bill Engvall Show.” Travis also makes time for the occasional made-for-TV movie, starring opposite Treat Williams in the Hallmark Channel Original Movie “Safe Harbor,” premiering Saturday, May 30 (9/8c). The following item is available for all press uses, with photos, from Crown Features Syndicate™. NANCY TRAVIS: ‘HERE’S YOUR HUSBAND, NICE TO MEET YOU, GOOD LUCK!’ Crown Features Syndicate ™ Nancy Travis admits it: When she started out as an actress back in the early 1980s, her goal was to have it all. Fame. Fortune. The husband and kids. The whole nine yards. She worked toward that end for the better part of a decade. Then the realization hit her that maybe she ought to downsize her ambitions just a tad – particularly if she wanted the marriage and children part to come to fruition. “It was important to me to be around for the family, that I didn’t miss out on that,” Travis, 47, admits. “It became clear that I just couldn’t really do the career and the family full-force at the same time.
