In this book we will investi- gate the transfigured role of the family both as the mediator and as the mediated in a transnational world in which intercultural values are negotiated through mass media like film and television, as well as through particularistic media like home movies and videos. “Shooting the family” has a double meaning. On the one hand, we claim that the family is under pressure and being altered by the forces of global- ization and migration (the family that is “shot to pieces”). On the other hand, fam- ily matters of all kinds, pertaining both to reinforcements and radical reconfigura- tions of traditional family values, are increasingly constructed and refigured in a mediated form: the “reel family” (as in the “visual family shot”) has become an im- portant medium for intercultural affairs. This book originated in the Department of Media and Culture of the University of Amsterdam. As a group of media scholars with a special interest in intercultural exchanges related to transnational media culture, we discovered that the concept of the family had not been very elaborately analyzed in this respect. Although both the Western nuclear family and the non-Western extended family is under pres- sure (from internal struggles and divorces and from external causes like migra- tion that tear families apart), no extended study has related the concept of the family in an intercultural perspective to media use and media theory. This striking absence in intercultural media theory led to the idea of writing this book. From the beginning, we also had the idea of relating these theoretical notions to certain media practices. We were therefore very happy that the center for mi- gration and image culture, Imagine IC (Imagine Identity and Culture) in Amster- Shooting/family 27-01-2005 18:20 Pagina 8 8 PATRICIA PISTERS AND WIM STAAT dam was immediately interested in collaborating with us on this theme. Imagine IC has programmed a set of screenings, talks, audiovisual assignments, etc., to complement the “Shooting the Family” project. The book and the events present a dialogue between media theory and practice that discusses intercultural values related to family matters.1 The Family, Interculturality, and the Media In contrast to media studies, in sociology, the family has been studied extensively in relation to interculturality and multiculturalism. For instance, in their book Families in Multicultural Perspectives, Bron Ingoldsby and Suzanna Smith, give an overview of the different ways in which the family can be understood in all its cul- tural diversity.2 They discuss and compare familial issues like marital structure, kinship rules, family members’ functional roles, parenting and “family life cycles” (from marriage to families with young children and aging families) in all their cul- tural diversities. In this way they demonstrate that although the traditional family of (white) heterosexual parents and their children is often taken as the normative definition of the family, from a multicultural perspective this definition can be ex- tended in many ways as long as it is considered as a group of people that care for each other and provide children a safe place to grow up. Of course, families can be dysfunctional as well, and these unsuccessful families have also been studied ex- tensively from a sociological perspective.3 In these cases, the family is researched with respect to its function in demographical descriptions of social organiza- tions. When we address the family in this book, we do not so much refer to the exten- sive sociological studies on the family. Our references will be taken from studies in the humanities, especially philosophy and esthetics. Questions of identity, par- ticular esthetic traditions, and ethical concerns will therefore inform our analy- ses. Moreover, all of the chapters in this book analyze particular media texts (fic- tion films, documentaries, television series, and home videos) and look at how in these particular texts the family is (re)presented. The underlying questions are al- ways related to the double meaning of the title of the book: how is the family rede- fined or even undermined by the forces of globalization, migration and intercul- tural encounters, and what is the function of media in this redefinition of the family? ————————————————— 1 See www.imagineic.nl. 2 Bron Ingoldsby and Suzanna Smith (eds.), Families in Multicultural Perspective (New York: The Guilford Press, 1995). 3 See, for example, Richard Kagan and Shirley Schlosberg, Families in Perpetual Crisis (New York: W.W.

Shooting/family 27-01-2005 18:20 Pagina 9 INTRODUCTION 9 In film and television studies, the family has always been discussed in relation to particular genres, especially the filmed melodrama and the televisual soap. Melodramas and soap operas are often compared as “women’s genres” in their emphasis on family relations. In her anthology Home Is Where the Heart Is, Chris- tine Gledhill has collected important studies on the melodramatic field in media studies.4 The title of Gledhill’s anthology basically refers to the emotional ties and tears (the heart), related to the domain of the home and the family, that are con- noted as feminine. Theoretically, the family in film and television studies has often been related to the Freudian notion of the Oedipal family.5 Numerous important studies have emphasized the Oedipal plot of all classical films, and as such the psychoanalyti- cal family can be considered as an important paradigm to interpret the world of cinema.

As of November, the market share for Korean films in the domestic market stood at 55 percent, which indicates that the yearly market share of Korean films will be over 50 percent for the third year in a row. In the international arena as well, Korean films were invited to major international film festivals including Cannes, Berlin, Venice, Locarno, and San Sebastian and received a warm reception from critics and audiences. It is often said that the current prosperity of Korean cinema is due to the strong commitment and policies introduced by the KIM Dae-joong government in 1999 to promote Korean films.

Marco Bellocchio i Bernardo Bertolucci van recollir l’herència de Pier Paolo Pasolini per aixecar la bandera del Nou Cinema italià dels seixanta amb I pugni in tasca i Prima della rivoluzione com a vaixells insígnia. Des de llavors, l’obra de Bellocchio s’ha desenvolupat a cavall entre la política i la psicoanàlisi, des d’un cinema militant que ha evolucionat cap a postures més reflexives fins a la solució de complexos edípics sense necessitat de matar la mare per buscar models universals en els clàssics de la literatura. La retrospectiva, tan àmplia com hem pogut en funció de la disponibilitat d’unes còpies d’accés gens fàcil, arrenca aquest mes amb sis llargmetratges que inclouen des de les històriques denúncies de l’autoritarisme d’I pugni in tasca, Sbatti il mostro in prima pagina i Nel nome del padre fins a les exploracions psicoanalítiques de l’erotisme a Il diavolo in corpo i La condanna o la sublim interpretació de Marcello Mastroianni del pirandellià Enrico IV.

Dedicated to the work of emerging, innovative filmmakers, Good Machine has produced or co-produced films by, among others, Ang Lee, Todd Solondz, Nicole Holofcener, Ed Burns, Cheryl Dunye and Hal Hartley. Beginning with Tui Shou (Pushing Hands) (1992), the first collaboration between Good Machine and director Ang Lee, The Museum of Modern Art presents eight feature films and five shorts from February 13 through 23, 2001 at the Roy and Niuta Titus Theatre 1. "Good Machine proves that audiences do want to be entertained intelligently and engaged substantively," remarks Laurence Kardish, Senior Curator, Department of Film and Video, who organized the series. "Their achievements are reflected in this Tenth Anniversary series and are, in large part, due to Good Machine's collaborations with filmmakers and its respect for the creative process." In addition to producing and co-producing films, Good Machine has gone on to establish an international sales company involved in distributing diverse and unusual works such as Joan Chen's Xiu Xiu: The Sent-Down Girl (1998) and Lars Von Trier's Dancer in the Dark (2000).

  • Gender and the Family in Contemporary Chinese-Language Film Remakes
    Gender and the family in contemporary Chinese-language film remakes Sarah Woodland BBusMan., BA (Hons) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2016 School of Languages and Cultures 1 Abstract This thesis argues that cinematic remakes in the Chinese cultural context are a far more complex phenomenon than adaptive translation between disparate cultures. While early work conducted on French cinema and recent work on Chinese-language remakes by scholars including Li, Chan and Wang focused primarily on issues of intercultural difference, this thesis looks not only at remaking across cultures, but also at intracultural remakes. In doing so, it moves beyond questions of cultural politics, taking full advantage of the unique opportunity provided by remakes to compare and contrast two versions of the same narrative, and investigates more broadly at the many reasons why changes between a source film and remake might occur. Using gender as a lens through which these changes can be observed, this thesis conducts a comparative analysis of two pairs of intercultural and two pairs of intracultural films, each chapter highlighting a different dimension of remakes, and illustrating how changes in gender representations can be reflective not just of differences in attitudes towards gender across cultures, but also of broader concerns relating to culture, genre, auteurism, politics and temporality. The thesis endeavours to investigate the complexities of remaking processes in a Chinese-language cinematic context, with a view to exploring the ways in which remakes might reflect different perspectives on Chinese society more broadly, through their ability to compel the viewer to reflect not only on the past, by virtue of the relationship with a source text, but also on the present, through the way in which the remake reshapes this text to address its audience.

  • Claretta E Benito, Amanti Burattini a Salò
    Claretta e Benito, amanti burattini a Salò - Gianfranco Capitta, LASTRA A SIGNA,14.11.2015 A teatro. Massimo Sgorbani, drammaturgo lombardo, autore di Arcitaliani, che racconta con cura i giorni dell'infausta repubbica sociale mescolando l'universo ideologico e visionario di Pasolini Pasolini ormai può essere, oltre che un piacere letterario «in proprio», anche punto di partenza per nuove creatività, come capita del resto a tutti i grandi classici. Massimo Sgorbani, puntuto drammaturgo lombardo (la sua ultima trilogia era dedicata alla «donne» di Hitler), parla questa volta insieme di un periodo storico e di noi oggi. Usa le cronache della fine della seconda guerra mondiale, e luniverso ideologico e visionario di Pasolini. Usa la satira e il cabaret, il balletto e il circo, il dramma borghese e la pochade. Tutto mescolato e instancabilmente sovrapposto, per costituire una amarissima quanto ridicola «commedia allitaliana». Anzi forse proprio una commedia sullItalia, di ieri, e pericolosamente anche di oggi. In cui si avverano e degenerano, incontrollati, visioni e incubi pasoliniani, che li aveva organizzati nei minuetti atroci del suo ultimo film, uscito postumo e quasi testamentario, Salò-Sade. Arcitaliani, o le seicento giornate di Salò è il titolo dellopera, che con cura millimetrica racconta i giorni dellinfausta repubblica sociale in cui si avvita tragicamente questo paese. Ma a raccontarcela sono i due «amanti perduti» Claretta e Benito (qui ridotto a Ben della retorica più sdata), impersonati da due attori/burattini (lei è Giusi Merli ormai icona santona della Grande bellezza) che si avviano con fatale incoscienza, come in un film di telefoni bianchi, verso il piazzale Loreto dellintera nazione.

Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Richard Hatch, winner of In 2000, when self-described "fat naked fag" Richard Hatch emerged as the first- the Survivor reality show season winning contestant on the phenomenally popular network reality television in 2000. show Survivor, he credited his survival success in large part to his homosexuality. Courtesy Richard Hatch. According to Hatch, growing up gay, being part of a minority community--and thus subject to scrutiny by others--inspired him to be both introspective and egocentric. These dual poles of introspection and egocentrism are, in fact, key elements in understanding the important roles gay men and lesbians play within the confines of reality television shows, even as they present interpretive quandaries for hetero- and homosexual viewers alike. In a typical reality television show, particularly one with game-show trappings such as CBS's Survivor and Big Brother, or ABC's The Mole, cast members as well as viewers regard introspection as suspicious behavior. Surely, the viewers surmise, something is being hatched under that quiet façade, and usually this supposition is proved correct. For these shows' gay and lesbian participants, however, the conflation of introspection with cunning and plotting too easily becomes connected to the unfortunate stereotype that gay men and lesbians are inherently crafty, conniving, and untrustworthy. Even in ostensibly less competitive shows such as Bravo's Boy Meets Boy, Fox's Playing It Straight, and even MTV's "docusoap"--Sam Brenton and Reuben Cohen's neologism for a television show that seamlessly combines elements of documentary realism with soap opera-style plotting--The Real World, introspection is often seen as a negative attribute, indicating moodiness, insecurity, or simmering hostility.
