Foi encontrado há poucos anos e objecto do complexos e mais brilhantes de Losey, e, de certo modo, magnífico restauro que agora finalmente iremos ver. É o marcará a sua obra a partir daqui. O comentário social filme mais ferozmente pessoal do realizador, no qual tenta arguto e um estilo visual singular (dos planos sequência “expulsar os seus demónios”. De novo com Stanley Baker, ao domínio da elipse) fazem deste filme “uma das obras- e uma Jeanne Moreau sublime no papel da tentadora Eva, primas de Losey” (Joaquín Vallet). o filme exerce um poder de fascinação raro sobre o espectador. • Festival de Veneza 1962 – Selecção Oficial em Competição O CRIADO The Servant de Joseph Losey com Dirk Bogarde, Sarah Miles, James Fox, Wendy Craig Reino Unido, 1963 – 1h56 | M/12 CÓPIA DIGITAL RESTAURADA A PARTIR DE 19 ABRIL --------------------------------------------- Hugo (Dirk Bogarde) é um criado que vai manipulando gradualmente o seu patrão (James Fox), levando-o a resignar-se a uma posição de subserviência, num exercício alucinado de subversão das relações de poder tradicionais. Drama psicológico ambivalente, envolto num ambiente claustrofóbico, o filme afronta o sistema de classes e a fragilidade da aristocracia inglesa. Com argumento de Harold Pinter (na primeira de três colaborações cinematográficas entre o célebre dramaturgo e Losey), O Criado conquistou um grande sucesso crítico e comercial, convertendo-se de imediato num clássico contemporâneo e consagrando Bogarde como um dos maiores actores britânicos da sua geração. • Festival de Veneza 1963 – Selecção Oficial em Competição • Prémios BAFTA 1964 – Melhor Actor (Dirk Bogarde); Melhor Fotografia; Maior Promessa (James Fox) ACIDENTE Accident de Joseph Losey com Dirk Bogarde, Stanley Baker, Jacqueline Sassard, Michael York Reino Unido, 1967 – 1h45 | M/12 CÓPIA DIGITAL RESTAURADA A PARTIR DE 20 ABRIL --------------------------------------------- Stephen (Dirk Bogarde) é um professor de meia-idade na Universidade de Oxford, insatisfeito com o seu casamento e com a sua carreira. Movido pela inveja, entra em guerra com Charley (Stanley Baker), o seu amigo galanteador e rival académico, e com William (Michael York), o jovem noivo de Anna (Jacqueline Sassard), uma estudante enigmática por quem se apaixona. Misterioso, subversivo e absolutamente fascinante, Acidente, um dos melhores filmes de Losey, é dominado por uma tensão que fervilha nos espaços que as palavras silenciam, muito ao estilo de Harold Pinter, que tem aqui um dos seus melhores guiões, que o realizador qualificou como obra-prima. • Festival de Cannes 1967 – Grande Prémio do Júri • Prémios BAFTA 1968 – Melhor Filme, Melhor Actor (Dirk Bogarde), Melhor Argumento (Harold Pinter) www.medeiafilmes.com 2 Ciclo: Joseph Losey Sessões Especiais CERIMÓNIA SECRETA Secret Ceremony de Joseph Losey com Elizabeth Taylor, Robert Mitchum, Mia Farrow Reino Unido, 1968 – 1h49 | M/12 CÓPIA DIGITAL RESTAURADA Legendado em português do Brasil MR.

  • Children's Horror, PG-13 and the Emergent Millennial Pre-Teen
    Children Beware! Children’s horror, PG-13 and the emergent Millennial pre-teen Filipa Antunes A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of Art, Media and American Studies December 2015 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Filipa Antunes “Children beware!” Abstract This thesis is a study of the children’s horror trend of the 1980s and 1990s focused on the transformation of the concepts of childhood and horror. Specifically, it discusses the segmentation of childhood to include the pre-teen demographic, which emerges as a distinct Millennial figure, and the ramifications of this social and cultural shift both on the horror genre and the entertainment industry more broadly, namely through the introduction of the deeply impactful PG-13 rating. The work thus adds to debates on children and horror, examining and questioning both sides: notions of suitability and protection of vulnerable audiences, as well as cultural definitions of the horror genre and the authority behind them. The thesis moreover challenges the reasons behind academic dismissal of these texts, pointing out their centrality to on-going discussions over childhood, particularly the pre-teen demographic, and suggesting a different approach to the

Flanagan 2015 iii THE BRITISH WAR FILM, 1939-1980: CULTURE, HISTORY, AND GENRE Kevin M. Flanagan, Ph.D. University of Pittsburgh, 2015 This dissertation argues that discussions of war representation that privilege the nationalistic, heroic, and redemptively sacrificial strand of storytelling that dominate popular memory in Britain ignore a whole counter-history of movies that view war as an occasion to critique through devices like humor, irony, and existential alienation. Instead of selling audiences on what Graham Dawson has called “the pleasure culture of war” (a nationally self-serving mode of talking about and profiting from war memory), many texts about war are motivated by other intellectual and ideological factors. Each chapter includes historical context and periodizing arguments about different moments in British cultural history, explores genre trends, and ends with a comparative analysis of representative examples.

    SLIGHT OF HOME SLIGHT OF HOME: QUEER THEORY, JOSEPH LOSEY AND THE ARCHITECTURE OF DESIRE By CHRISTIEN LEON GARCIA, B.A., MRes A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Christien Leon Garcia, November 2017 McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2017) Hamilton, Ontario (English and Cultural Studies) TITLE: Slight of Home: Queer Theory, Joseph Losey and the Architecture of Desire AUTHOR: Christien Leon Garcia, B.A., MRes (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Nadine Attewell NUMBER OF PAGES: viii, 229 ii Lay Abstract This thesis aims to bring the notion of slightness to bear on a reading of domestic space in the films of the American-born, British film-maker Joseph Losey. By drawing on psychoanalysis, queer theory and cultural materialist frameworks, I examine the material traces, patterns, and forms of house and home, which cannot be folded into logics of identity. Rather than parsing a form of domesticity that is queer because of the nature of the intimacy or sexuality that it houses, I argue that the queerness of domesticity can be found in the forms, patterns and details of home which are too subtle to rise to the discursive level at which home becomes a disciplinary category. iii Abstract This thesis aims to bring the notion of slightness to bear on a reading of domestic space in the films of the American-born, British film-maker Joseph Losey.
