First, I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Stefanie Tcharos. The impact of your patience and knowledge was only outweighed, in the process of writing this dissertation, by the examples you have set for me in the work you do and, frankly, the life you lead. My life will be forever improved because I have had you as a mentor and role model. Dr. Robynn Stilwell, thank you for taking the time to participate in this project so wholeheartedly, for giving me your valuable advice, and for blazing the proverbial trail for women film music scholars everywhere. Drs. Dave Paul and Derek Katz, thank you for the years of guidance you provided as I have developed as a scholar. I want to thank my colleagues at the University of California, Santa Barbara – Emma Parker, Linda Shaver-Gleason, Sasha Metcalf, Scott Dirkse, Vincent Rone, Michael Vitalino, Shannon McCue, Jacob Adams, Michael Joiner, and, I am sure, others – for your careful feedback during workshops, in-person and online, as well as for your comradery and friendship throughout our years together. On a personal level, I need to thank my parents, Dr. Mary Joyce and John Joyce, my sister, Katie, and my brother, Brian, for believing that I can do anything and for always being sources of comfort and advice. I am so, so lucky to have been raised in this family. And to my new family, David Tozer, thank you for being such an incredibly kind, fun, devoted husband and partner. Without your commitment, hard work, and support, I would not have been able to write this dissertation or complete my Ph.D. Thank you also to my little writing buddy, Phillip, for sitting by my side and encouraging me to do my best. iv VITA OF MEGHAN JOYCE TOZER June 2016 EDUCATION Bachelor of Arts in Music / English and American Literature and Language, Harvard University, June 2008 (cum laude; magna cum laude for Honors Thesis) Master of Music in Voice, University of California, Santa Barbara, June 2011 Doctor of Philosophy in Music, University of California, Santa Barbara, June 2016 PROFESSIONAL EMPLOYMENT 2008-2009: Editorial Administrator, Alfred Music Publishing 2010-2013: Teaching Assistant, Department of Music, University of California, Santa Barbara Summer 2012, Summer 2013: Teaching Associate, Department of Music, University of California, Santa Barbara 2013-2014: Program Coordinator, Arts for Humanity! 2013-2016: Editorial Assistant, Cambridge Opera Journal 2013-2016: Founder and Director, The UnSlut Project (as Emily Lindin, pen name) 2016-present: Executive Director, For Goodness Sake (as Emily Linidn, pen name) PUBLICATIONS “Mixing Punk Rock, Classical, and New Sounds in Film Music: An Interview with Brian Reitzell,” in The Palgrave Handbook of Sound Design and Music in Screen Media: Integrated Soundtracks , eds.

Scholars across disciplines have presented various overlapping criteria by which to group these filmmakers, from media historian Jeffrey Sconce’s “Sundance Generation” to literature scholar Nicholas Rombes’s “new punk cinema.” I analyze the musical aspects that emerge in these groupings without strictly adhering to any one parameter. Specifically, I show how screenwriter-directors Darren Aronofsky, Sofia Coppola, and Paul Thomas Anderson challenge the boundaries between original and pre-existing music, among musical and film genres, and between the very media of music and film. I focus on the collaborations of Darren Aronofsky and former punk front man Clint Mansell on Requiem for a Dream (2000) and Black Swan (2010); Sofia Coppola and punk drummer turned music supervisor Brian Reitzell on The Virgin Suicides (1999) and Lost in Translation (2003); and Paul Thomas Anderson and pop-rock music producer Jon Brion for the scores of Magnolia (1999), which Anderson consistently describes as an “adaptation” of Aimee Mann’s songs, and Punch-Drunk Love (2003). vi Significantly, Aronofsky, Coppola, and Anderson consistently refer to their filmmaking approaches as “musical.” I do not suggest that these self-conscious descriptions offer an especially reliable interpretation of the films, but rather I turn to them for insight into the filmmakers’ public image cultivation. Further, I show how these filmmakers approach music as creative inspiration and as a procedural motive by collaborating from early stages in production with non-classical composers, writing musical cues and notes into their screenplays, and structuring their films in a way they understand to be musical. Thus I put forth all iterations of the screenplay as well as the filmmaker’s public descriptions of their creative methods, neither of which is usually considered in the study of film music, as necessary tools in understanding these “musical” films as multi-layered texts. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction ......................................................................................................................... 1 Introductory Ideas and Materials .................................................................................... 1 Theoretical Issues............................................................................................................ 9 Mechanics of Analysis and Thesis Overview ............................................................... 20 Chapter One: Darren Aronofsky and Clint Mansell ......................................................... 23 Postmodern Filmic Resonances: Punk Attitudes and Monsters ................................... 28 Requiem for a Dream .................................................................................................... 36 The Influence of Selby’s Novel ................................................................................ 40 Mansell’s Main Theme: Lux Aeterna ....................................................................... 45 Repetition and Hip-Hop Montages ........................................................................... 50 Critical Responses to Requiem for a Dream ............................................................. 56 Black Swan .................................................................................................................... 59 The Story of Swan Lake and the Black Swan Screenplay ......................................... 62 Nina’s Musical Doubling: Beth ................................................................................ 65 Nina’s Musical Doubling: Lily ................................................................................. 67 Ambiguous Diegesis in Black Swan ......................................................................... 72 Conclusion ................................................................................................................ 78 Chapter Two: Sofia Coppola and Brian Reitzell .............................................................. 81 Defying Genre in The Virgin Suicides and Lost in Translation ................................... 89 The Virgin Suicides ......................................................................................................

  • Deliver Us to Cinema: the Prince of Egypt and Cinematic Depictions of Religious Texts

    Deliver Us to Cinema: the Prince of Egypt and Cinematic Depictions of Religious Texts

    Deliver Us to Cinema: The Prince of Egypt and Cinematic Depictions of Religious Texts Kadii Lott Introduction There is a pervasive Hollywood culture of appropriating and commodifying biblical concepts and imagery into films that do not explicitly address the Abrahamic belief systems that consider the Old and New Testaments as sacred texts. Many such films received mixed reviews. Christian and Jewish groups have heavily criticised particular adaptations of scriptural stories, including Life of Brian,1 The Last Temptation of Christ,2 The Passion of Christ,3 and Noah,4 for their blasphemous or ill-intentioned treatment of biblical figures. Despite the protectiveness of religious people Kadii Lott received First Class Honours in Studies in Religion at the University of Sydney in 2020. 1 The 1979 religious satire reimagined the fictional life of a man named Brian who gets mistaken for Jesus. The film was considered blasphemous by some Christians who protested against the release and the film was banned in many countries upon its release, including in Ireland and Norway. See Ben Dowell, ‘BBC to dramatise unholy row over Monty Python’s Life of Brian’, The Guardian (21 June 2011), https://www.theguardian.com/media/ 2011/jun/21/bbc-monty-python-life-of-brian. Accessed 13 July 2020. 2 Scorsese’s depicted Jesus Christ dealing with worldly temptations like everyone else. This caused outrage amongst some Christian groups, even leading to an incident in Paris where a theatre showing the film was set on fire. See Steven Greenhouse, ‘Police Suspect Arson In Fire at Paris Theater’, The New York Times (25 October 1988), p.

  • BBC Four Programme Information

    BBC Four Programme Information

    SOUND OF CINEMA: THE MUSIC THAT MADE THE MOVIES BBC Four Programme Information Neil Brand presenter and composer said, “It's so fantastic that the BBC, the biggest producer of music content, is showing how music works for films this autumn with Sound of Cinema. Film scores demand an extraordinary degree of both musicianship and dramatic understanding on the part of their composers. Whilst creating potent, original music to synchronise exactly with the images, composers are also making that music as discreet, accessible and communicative as possible, so that it can speak to each and every one of us. Film music demands the highest standards of its composers, the insight to 'see' what is needed and come up with something new and original. With my series and the other content across the BBC’s Sound of Cinema season I hope that people will hear more in their movies than they ever thought possible.” Part 1: The Big Score In the first episode of a new series celebrating film music for BBC Four as part of a wider Sound of Cinema Season on the BBC, Neil Brand explores how the classic orchestral film score emerged and why it’s still going strong today. Neil begins by analysing John Barry's title music for the 1965 thriller The Ipcress File. Demonstrating how Barry incorporated the sounds of east European instruments and even a coffee grinder to capture a down at heel Cold War feel, Neil highlights how a great composer can add a whole new dimension to film. Music has been inextricably linked with cinema even since the days of the "silent era", when movie houses employed accompanists ranging from pianists to small orchestras.

In 1983, she co-founded ‘Til Tuesday, a new-wave band that found success with its first album, Voices Carry. The title track became an MTV favorite, winning the MTV Video Music Award for Best New Artist, propelling Mann and the band into the spotlight. After releasing three albums with the group, she broke up the band and embarked on a solo career. Her first solo album, Whatever, was a more introspective, folk-tinged effort than ‘Til Tuesday’s albums, and received uniformly positive reviews upon its release in the summer of 1993. Mann’s song “Save Me” from the soundtrack to the Paul Thomas Anderson film Magnolia was nominated for an Academy® Award and a Grammy®.

  • The Commutation Test and Chris Bacon's Score for Source Code As

    The Commutation Test and Chris Bacon's Score for Source Code As

    The Commutation Test and Chris Bacon’s Score for Source Code as a Framework for Film Music Pedagogy Aaron Ziegel, Towson University he cinema, whether experienced at the neighborhood multiplex or streamed at home, is arguably the medium through which today’s col- lege-age Americans are most likely to encounter newly composed sym- Tphonic music. Given the ubiquity of the film-viewing experience, students are often eager to learn the tools and methodologies that can equip them to criti- cally assess and more fully comprehend the function of music in movies. The filmSource Code (2011), directed by Duncan Jones and scored by Chris Bacon, provides a particularly effective starting point through which this process can begin.1 This article will discuss the pedagogical potential found in the film’s main titles and the impact of applying a commutation test to this sequence. Although here I address one specific example, the methodology of the commu- tation test is easily adaptable to other circumstances, as the theoretical foun- dation will make clear. While variations on the commutation test are a regular occurrence in many film music classrooms, this essay aims to present an intro- ductory primer that may be of use to instructors interested in an entry point for incorporating film music studies into their teaching. With that in mind, the appendix presents one suggestion for how to create film clips for classroom use. The value of this classroom activity extends beyond providing students with an engaging and memorable learning experience. By situating this analysis I wish to express my gratitude to the many students at Towson University whose feedback and enthusiastic classroom participation, along with suggestions from the anonymous reviewers, helped me to refine the pedagogical approach described in this essay.
  • He Dreams of Giants

    He Dreams of Giants

    From the makers of Lost In La Mancha comes A Tale of Obsession… He Dreams of Giants A film by Keith Fulton and Lou Pepe RUNNING TIME: 84 minutes United Kingdom, 2019, DCP, 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround, Aspect Ratio16:9 PRESS CONTACT: Cinetic Media Ryan Werner and Charlie Olsky 1 SYNOPSIS “Why does anyone create? It’s hard. Life is hard. Art is hard. Doing anything worthwhile is hard.” – Terry Gilliam From the team behind Lost in La Mancha and The Hamster Factor, HE DREAMS OF GIANTS is the culmination of a trilogy of documentaries that have followed film director Terry Gilliam over a twenty-five-year period. Charting Gilliam’s final, beleaguered quest to adapt Don Quixote, this documentary is a potent study of creative obsession. For over thirty years, Terry Gilliam has dreamed of creating a screen adaptation of Cervantes’ masterpiece. When he first attempted the production in 2000, Gilliam already had the reputation of being a bit of a Quixote himself: a filmmaker whose stories of visionary dreamers raging against gigantic forces mirrored his own artistic battles with the Hollywood machine. The collapse of that infamous and ill-fated production – as documented in Lost in La Mancha – only further cemented Gilliam’s reputation as an idealist chasing an impossible dream. HE DREAMS OF GIANTS picks up Gilliam’s story seventeen years later as he finally mounts the production once again and struggles to finish it. Facing him are a host of new obstacles: budget constraints, a history of compromise and heightened expectations, all compounded by self-doubt, the toll of aging, and the nagging existential question: What is left for an artist when he completes the quest that has defined a large part of his career? 2 Combining immersive verité footage of Gilliam’s production with intimate interviews and archival footage from the director’s entire career, HE DREAMS OF GIANTS is a revealing character study of a late-career artist, and a meditation on the value of creativity in the face of mortality.
