She hadn't even seen The Doors yet. Ending a twenty-three—year career rates as a mild reaction compared to the effect two or three hours alone in a dark room with an Oliver Stone film has had on some folks: The Turks reviled him for what they perceived to be the negative stereotypes in Mid- night Express. Chinese-Americans organized nation- wide protests and boycotts over the racism in Year of the Dragon. And the Cubans put out the unwelcome mat in Miami due to the sadism in Scarface. And those were just his screenplays.

    Örebro Universitet Institutionen för humaniora, utbildning och samhällsvetenskap Drömmen i dåliga bilder En studie om estetiken i Beyond the Black Rainbow och Inland Empire Självständigt arbete 2019-01-17 Medie- och kommunikation, inriktning film Handledare: Jakob Nilsson Författare: Daniel Sandberg & Kim Jakobsson Abstract This thesis examines visionary directors David Lynch and Panos Cosmatos aesthetics in the films Inland Empire and Beyond the Black Rainbow. Two films with surrealistic aspects that are using a form of degraded aesthetics to achieve a certain kind of cinematography that is rarely seen in the industry. We examine what tools are being used to achieve the effect with theories concerning defamiliarization, the uncanny and uncanny valley. Aspects of cinematography in these films are working together to create effects that are both defamiliarized and uncanny.
