LONG SUMMARY Molly Shannon plays Emily Dickinson in the dramatic comedy "​ Wild Nights with Emily​." The poet’s persona, popularized since her death, became that of a reclusive spinster – a delicate wallflower, too sensitive for this world. This film explores her vivacious, irreverent side that was covered up for years — most notably Emily’s lifelong romantic relationship with another woman (Susan Ziegler). After Emily died, a rivalry emerged when her brother's mistress (Amy Seimetz) along with editor T.W.

  • 'Like an American, but Without a Gun'?: Canadian National Identity
    . Volume 17, Issue 2 November 2020 ‘Like an American, but without a gun’?: Canadian national identity and the Kids in the Hall Melissa Beattie, Independent Scholar, USA Abstract: Media representation of national identity can be complex and utilise many potential mechanisms for conveying said identity onto both diegeses and series. This paper analyses the mechanisms by which the corpus of texts produced by comedy troupe the Kids in the Hall (KITH) represents and constructs a Canadian national identity for domestic and foreign audiences. Utilising both textual analysis and audience research, this paper examines the banal diegetic nationalism (Beattie 2017a, b) of the corpus as well as how the Canadianness of the series is perceived. Keywords: Canadian national identity and media, Discursive national identity, Fan studies, Representation, Audiences Introduction and literature review Media representation of national identity can be complex and utilise many potential mechanisms for conveying said identity onto both diegeses and series. This paper analyses the mechanisms by which the corpus of texts produced by comedy troupe the Kids in the Hall (KITH) represents and constructs a Canadian national identity for domestic and foreign audiences. Utilising both textual analysis and audience research, this paper examines the banal diegetic nationalism (Beattie 2017a, b) of the corpus as well as how the Canadianness of the corpus is perceived. This is relevant when viewed in context of Edwardson’s (2008) work on the development of Canadian national identity through its cultural industries. Though his book looks at all of the cultural industries, Edwardson’s negative view of globalisation with regard Page 3 Volume 17, Issue 2 November 2020 to television in particular views the push for transnational television success as leading to the diminishing of Canadian-focused content in favour of what would appeal to a predominantly-American audience.

    Star Studies Today: From the Picture Personality to the Media Celebrity Virginia Luzón-Aguado Universidad de Zaragoza [email protected] Although the study of film was already well established, Star Studies did not become the focus of serious, sustained academic research until the 1970s thanks to the seminal work of Richard Dyer, in which it was firmly established that film stars contribute fundamentally to the creation of meaning in a film text. It is for this reason that Star Studies has had a comparatively shorter, although not less productive, history than other areas of research within Film Studies. This paper will therefore be discussing the role, significance and value of Hollywood film stars within both our present society and the contemporary Hollywood film industry. However, in order to fully appreciate the current state of the institution of Hollywood stardom, it will also be necessary to briefly discuss its foundations and development, as well as the various ways in which stardom has routinely been analysed within the academic field of Film Studies. In order to illustrate my theoretical arguments, I will be focusing on the particular case of Harrison Ford, one of the most influential contemporary Hollywood icons. Keywords: Film Studies; Star Studies; Hollywood Stars; Harrison Ford A pesar de que los estudios sobre cine ya estaban bien asentados, el estudio de las estrellas no se convirtió en objeto de investigación académica seria y continuada hasta los 70, gracias a la publicación del trabajo pionero de Richard Dyer, que estableció que las estrellas de cine contribuyen de forma notable en la creación del significado de un texto fílmico.
