Ε Π Ισ Η Μ Ο Σ Κ Α Τα Λ Ο Γο Σ • O F F Icia L Pr O G R επισημοσ καταλογοσ • official program EDITORIAL EDITORIAL Αποφασίσαμε να κάνουμε και πάλι Φεστιβάλ… ¼ επειδή βαρεθήκαμε να ακούμε την λέξη «κρίση» και να ζούμε σαν ήρωες ταινιών καταστροφής επειδή το «Αγάπη» του Χάνεκε είναι απείρως καλύτερο από όλες τις ταινίες καταστροφής που έχουν γυριστεί ποτέ επειδή αυτές οι ταινίες καταστροφής (οι «επίσημες» εννοώ) καταστρέφουν την καθημερινότητά μας επειδή η καθημερινότητά μας βγαίνει συνεχώς έξω από τα όρια της καταστροφής επειδή όλων των ειδών τα όρια υπάρχουν απλώς για να παραβιάζονται επειδή κι εμείς υπάρχουμε πέρα και έξω από αυτά τα όρια πασχίζοντας να ισορροπήσουμε κι επειδή το σημείο «που πάνω σ' αυτό ισορροπείς και υπάρχεις», δεν το έχουμε βρει ακόμα. Αποφασίσαμε λοιπόν να κάνουμε και πάλι Φεστιβάλ. Είδαμε εκατοντάδες ταινίες και πέσαμε μαζί τους στο κρεβάτι. Hπια- με αμέτρητους καφέδες ακούγοντας κινέζικα, ταϊλανδέζικα ή -ακόμα χειρότερα- καλιφορνέζικα. Πήγαμε διακοπές με τις οθόνες των λάπτοπ μας και κάναμε παρέα στα μέιλ που ξεχείλιζαν από παντού και ζητούσαν άμεση απάντηση. Αποφασίσαμε να κάνουμε και πάλι Φεστιβάλ. Τίποτε δεν ήταν εύκολο. Τίποτε δεν ήταν «όπως παλιά». Εξω -στις διαδρομές ενός κόσμου που ήδη είχε αλλάξει- η πραγματικότητα εξαντλούσε κάθε ζοφερή φαντασία και μέσα μας μια (διαφορετική πια) φα- ντασία διεκδικούσε την αληθινή πραγματικότητα. Την ακολουθήσαμε, την κανακέψαμε, την αγαπήσαμε, τη ζήσαμε ολόκληρη - σε κάθε τρομακτική ή γοητευτική της λεπτομέρεια. Αποφασίσαμε να κάνουμε και πάλι Φεστιβάλ. Δεν θα προσπαθήσουμε να σας εντυπωσιάσουμε με κανένα πλαστό μεγαλείο, με καμία ανούσια λάμψη. Θα σας πούμε μόνο ότι αυτό το Φεστιβάλ είναι το πιο ειλικρινές από όλα όσα έχουμε κάνει μέχρι σήμερα. Κι η απόφασή μας -η απόφαση να κάνουμε και πάλι Φεστιβάλ- είναι ό,τι πιο παθιασμένο έχουμε τολμήσει. Καλό Φεστιβάλ! Και καλές αποφάσεις! Ορέστης Ανδρεαδάκης Καλλιτεχνικός Διευθυντής So we decided to throw another Festival... ...because we're sick and tired of living in «Credit Crunch: The Movie»... because all these real-life disaster movies are messing with our heads... becase «Amour» by Michael Haneke is infinently better than all the disaster movies put together... because our lives are beyond disastrous anyway... because rules were meant to be broken... because you can't live by the book when your life is out whack and peace of mind is such a long way away. So we decided to throw another festival. We saw hundreds of movies, in and out of bed. We drunk countless cups of coffee, listening in on conversations from every corner of the earth, from Thailand all the way to California. We went on holiday chained to our laptops and addicted to e-mail, bulging with urgent matters that demanded our immediate attention. So we decided to throw another festival. But nothing was easy and nothing was like it used to be. In a world were reality was looking increasingly like everyone's worst nightmare, fiction was begging to create an alternative universe. So we hunted it down, coaxed it out, fell for it, experienced every aspect of it, down to the most gruesome or charming detail. And we decided to throw another festival. We won't try to impress you with counterfeit glamour and empty promises. All we can say is that this is the most honest edition of the Athens International Film Festival we've ever organized and the biggest, most passionare risk we've ever taken. Have a great festival and don't let anybody else make up your mind for you. Your decisions are yours to make!

  • Black Soldiers in Liberal Hollywood
    Katherine Kinney Cold Wars: Black Soldiers in Liberal Hollywood n 1982 Louis Gossett, Jr was awarded the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his portrayal of Gunnery Sergeant Foley in An Officer and a Gentleman, becoming theI first African American actor to win an Oscar since Sidney Poitier. In 1989, Denzel Washington became the second to win, again in a supporting role, for Glory. It is perhaps more than coincidental that both award winning roles were soldiers. At once assimilationist and militant, the black soldier apparently escapes the Hollywood history Donald Bogle has named, “Coons, Toms, Bucks, and Mammies” or the more recent litany of cops and criminals. From the liberal consensus of WWII, to the ideological ruptures of Vietnam, and the reconstruction of the image of the military in the Reagan-Bush era, the black soldier has assumed an increasingly prominent role, ironically maintaining Hollywood’s liberal credentials and its preeminence in producing a national mythos. This largely static evolution can be traced from landmark films of WWII and post-War liberal Hollywood: Bataan (1943) and Home of the Brave (1949), through the career of actor James Edwards in the 1950’s, and to the more politically contested Vietnam War films of the 1980’s. Since WWII, the black soldier has held a crucial, but little noted, position in the battles over Hollywood representations of African American men.1 The soldier’s role is conspicuous in the way it places African American men explicitly within a nationalist and a nationaliz- ing context: U.S. history and Hollywood’s narrative of assimilation, the combat film.

Amidst real life-and- death situations, McGarry follows a dedicated team of charismatic young doctors-in-training as they wrestle with both their ideals and the realities of saving lives in a complex and overburdened system. Their training ground and source of inspiration is "C-Booth," Los Angeles County Hospital's legendary trauma bay, the birthplace of Emergency Medicine, where “more people have died and more people have been saved than in any other square footage in the United States.” CODE BLACK offers a tense, doctor's-eye view right into the heart of the healthcare debate – bringing us face to face with America's only 24/7 safety net. 2 DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT When I first started documenting CBooth at LA County Hospital, as a first-year resident already working 80-hour weeks, I didn’t plan to make a film.

  • Ronald Davis Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts
    Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts in America Southern Methodist University The Southern Methodist University Oral History Program was begun in 1972 and is part of the University’s DeGolyer Institute for American Studies. The goal is to gather primary source material for future writers and cultural historians on all branches of the performing arts- opera, ballet, the concert stage, theatre, films, radio, television, burlesque, vaudeville, popular music, jazz, the circus, and miscellaneous amateur and local productions. The Collection is particularly strong, however, in the areas of motion pictures and popular music and includes interviews with celebrated performers as well as a wide variety of behind-the-scenes personnel, several of whom are now deceased. Most interviews are biographical in nature although some are focused exclusively on a single topic of historical importance. The Program aims at balancing national developments with examples from local history. Interviews with members of the Dallas Little Theatre, therefore, serve to illustrate a nation-wide movement, while film exhibition across the country is exemplified by the Interstate Theater Circuit of Texas. The interviews have all been conducted by trained historians, who attempt to view artistic achievements against a broad social and cultural backdrop. Many of the persons interviewed, because of educational limitations or various extenuating circumstances, would never write down their experiences, and therefore valuable information on our nation’s cultural heritage would be lost if it were not for the S.M.U. Oral History Program. Interviewees are selected on the strength of (1) their contribution to the performing arts in America, (2) their unique position in a given art form, and (3) availability.

    The Undead Subject of Lost Decade Japanese Horror Cinema A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Jordan G. Parrish August 2017 © 2017 Jordan G. Parrish. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled The Undead Subject of Lost Decade Japanese Horror Cinema by JORDAN G. PARRISH has been approved for the Film Division and the College of Fine Arts by Ofer Eliaz Assistant Professor of Film Studies Matthew R. Shaftel Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 Abstract PARRISH, JORDAN G., M.A., August 2017, Film Studies The Undead Subject of Lost Decade Japanese Horror Cinema Director of Thesis: Ofer Eliaz This thesis argues that Japanese Horror films released around the turn of the twenty- first century define a new mode of subjectivity: “undead subjectivity.” Exploring the implications of this concept, this study locates the undead subject’s origins within a Japanese recession, decimated social conditions, and a period outside of historical progression known as the “Lost Decade.” It suggests that the form and content of “J- Horror” films reveal a problematic visual structure haunting the nation in relation to the gaze of a structural father figure. In doing so, this thesis purports that these films interrogate psychoanalytic concepts such as the gaze, the big Other, and the death drive. This study posits themes, philosophies, and formal elements within J-Horror films that place the undead subject within a worldly depiction of the afterlife, the films repeatedly ending on an image of an emptied-out Japan invisible to the big Other’s gaze.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Scream a Screenplay by Kevin Williamson Unsubs Central
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Scream A Screenplay by Kevin Williamson UnSubs Central. Your stop for killer book and film reviews about the world's most notorious serial murderers. Scream 4: Calling Kevin Williamson. In 2014, I came across an opportunity to write for an arts & entertainment website. To apply, all I had to do was write a film review. I had never written a film review. After a flurry of research on “How to Write a Film Review,” next was deciding the film. I did not have to think long. I would review Scream 4 . I had an encyclopedic knowledge of the Scream series and had lost count of how many times I had watched and rewatched. I considered Wes Craven one of my heroes. The topper? Scream 4 had filmed in my town and many a late night was spent sitting on a sidewalk across the street watching them film. Yes, I would review Scream 4 . Below is my review as sent to the editor in 2014. Spoiler alert – I got the gig and for three years was a blogger for The Script Lab. Happy reading!
