    BAMcinématek presents From the Third Eye: Evergreen Review on Film, Mar 16—31 Marking the release of From the Third Eye: The Evergreen Film Reader, a new anthology of works published in the seminal counterculture journal, BAMcinématek pays homage to a bygone era of provocative cinema The series kicks off with a week-long run of famed documentarian Leo Hurwitz’s Strange Victory in a new restoration The Wall Street Journal is the title sponsor for BAMcinématek and BAM Rose Cinemas. Feb 17, 2016/Brooklyn, NY—From Wednesday, March 16, through Thursday, March 31, BAMcinématek presents From the Third Eye: Evergreen Review on Film. Founded and managed by legendary Grove Press publisher Barney Rosset, Evergreen Review brought the best in radical art, literature, and politics to newsstands across the US from the late 1950s to the early 1970s. Grove launched its film division in the mid-1960s and quickly became one of the most important and innovative film distributors of its time, while Evergreen published incisive essays on cinema by writers like Norman Mailer, Amos Vogel, Nat Hentoff, Parker Tyler, and many others. Marking the publication of From the Third Eye: The Evergreen Review Film Reader, edited by Rosset and critic Ed Halter, this series brings together a provocative selection of the often controversial films that were championed by this seminal publication—including many distributed by Grove itself—vividly illustrating how filmmakers worked to redefine cinema in an era of sexual, social, and political revolution. The series begins with a week-long run of a new restoration of Leo Hurwitz’s Strange Victory (1948/1964), “the most ambitious leftist film made in the US” (J.

In the past, due to its taboo nature, offensive language has received little attention in the field of academics. However, Stephen Chow and his unique style of nonsense comedies have popularized the use of offensive language both in Hong Kong and other Chinese- speaking communities. This thesis uses the film Flirting Scholar as a case study to compare the original Cantonese and its Mandarin-dubbed version. The tools used to analyse the Cantonese offensive language and Mandarin translations are Lawrence Venuti’s foreignisation and domestication theory, and, Teresa Tomaszkiewicz’s audiovisual translation strategies. The result shows that due to film censorship in Taiwan, most of the Mandarin versions do not recreate the same effect as Cantonese offensive language nor do they replicate the connotations rooted in the examples presented in this thesis.

  • Laughing Off a Zombie Apocalypse: the Value of Comedic and Satirical Narratives1
    International Studies Perspectives (2017) 18, 211–224 Laughing off a Zombie Apocalypse: The Value of Comedic and Satirical Narratives1 RODGER A. PAYNE University of Louisville In recent years, many international relations scholars have been discussing films, books, and television programs featuring zombies, largely because such narratives are thought to provide a compelling metaphor for thinking about a diverse array of contemporary threats. These range from relatively traditional threats posed by violent terrorists to nontraditional threats from epidemics or mass migration. However, because zombie narratives are gen- erally apocalyptic, employing them can provide a misleading and dangerous understanding of international security. By contrast, satirical and comedic zombie stories provide interesting alternative narratives that coincide with the emancipatory objectives of critical security studies. Satirical narratives fo- cusing on elites characteristically critique these powerful figures, often re- vealing them to be self-centered buffoons. Indeed, satire and black comedy can be quite subversive, reflecting critical and potentially transformative notions—about threats andotherdimensionsofsecurity politics. Comedies typically center upon ordinary people, emphasize their regular lives, and end happily—aligning with the aspirations of the human security agenda. Keywords: narrative, film, zombies, critical theory, human security In recent years, international relations (IR) scholars have revealed a strong and growing interest in popular books, films, and television programs. Many are study- ing and writing seriously about a diverse oeuvre of words and images, though with a notable tilt toward pop culture works of fantasy and science fiction. Some of the most prominent publications have focused on the Harry Potter series (Nexon and Neumann 2006), The Lord of the Rings trilogy (Ruane and James 2012), Star Trek (Weldes 1999), Battlestar Galactica (Buzan 2010), and Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Rowley and Weldes 2012).
