The film was also Sweden’s entry to the various awards, which raised my expectations of it, and I had to see it with Swedish subtitles only. Despite all that, the film is quite remarkable with pretty outstanding performances especially Maria Heiskanen who played Larsson with a certain frailty and, at the same time, a certain fearlessness. Moreover, the film is just a gorgeous old photograph through and through, but even that couldn’t get me to see another layer to her husband’s abuse, which resulted in the same thing over and over again. - amy ½ This movie is basically the book in motion.

Case Number 05-72126 Honorable David M. Lawson SALAAM NASSAR,CURTIS JACKSON, DARRIN DEAN, DEF JAM RECORDING, RUFF RYDERS, JANICE COMBS PUBLISHING, UNIVERSAL MUSIC PUBLISHING, UNIVERSAL MUSIC & VIDEO DISTRIBUTION CORPORATION, EMI APRIL, INC., SOO SOOS SWEET SWISHER MUSIC, JOHN DOE, ET AL., Defendants. ______________________________________ / OPINION AND ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS’ MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT, GRANTING DEFENDANTS’ MOTION TO DISMISS, DENYING PLAINTIFFS’ MOTIONS FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT, AND ADJUDICATING OTHER PENDING MOTIONS This is a copyright infringement action in which plaintiff Shelton Rivers claims to be the original author of a rhythm line – or “beat” – that was duplicated – that is, “sampled” – by defendant Salaam Nassar and incorporated into a rap tune, which enjoyed commercial success. Both Rivers and Nassar claim to be the original creator of the beat. However, the plaintiff’s sole remaining theory of liability is based on a claim of unlawful sampling under 17 U.S.C. § 114(b), which has not been established by the evidence before the Court regardless of which of the two is the original author. The parties have filed several motions, some of which raise disturbing allegations of misconduct by the plaintiffs and their attorney, Gregory Reed, Esq. The Court finds that the cross motions for summary judgment must be decided in favor of the defendants because the plaintiffs have not come forward with evidence that establishes that the accused work, a rap tune called “Shot Down,” contains a direct or indirect “recapture [of] the actual sounds fixed in the recording” Rivers said he made or a rearrangement of “the actual sounds fixed in [Rivers’s] sound recording.” Ibid.

Geoffrey Brown 3 This thesis is dedicated to Agnès Calatayud, an inspirational teacher, who reconnected me to French cinema after a long carence, and who, crucially, first introduced me to the films of Claire Denis. 4 Abstract This thesis argues that the interest which the films of Claire Denis display in the ever-shifting modes of relations between people is illustrated through analysis of how music is used throughout her corpus of feature films. Denis draws on an extremely eclectic palette of musical styles, and the thesis proposes that these varying musical modalities are central to her treatment of relational issues, as are the ways in which she deploys her chosen musical selections.

    Intercom – Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos Interdisciplinares da Comunicação XXXII Congresso Brasileiro de Ciências da Comunicação – Curitiba, PR – 4 a 7 de setembro de 2009 Jumun: pensando o sucesso ocidental da cultura pop asiática através da boyband sul-coreana Dong Bang Shin Ki1 Talita de Cássia MOTA2 Universidade Estadual Paulista, Bauru, SP Resumo A música é uma forma de arte que reflete modos de pensar e agir, a cultura e por isso mesmo é utilizada como uma das maneiras de se conhecer e divulgar o país para o estrangeiro. Mesmo quando não há divulgação oficial pelos meio tradicionais (rádio, TV ou jornal), a internet passa a ser o meio essencial para visualização de outras culturas a partir do país de origem, sem intermediários que poderiam distorcer sua imagem. Por isso, este artigo pretende enxergar a música como forma de comunicação de uma cultura diferente da nossa e assim, pensar a internet como o meio que possibilita a disseminação, conhecimento e consumo de produtos da cultura pop sul coreana, vendo nesse movimento a reinterpretação e/ou construção de novas identidades culturais gerando um processo de hibridização cultural. Palavras-chave comunicação; cultura; internet; identidade Introdução As culturas asiáticas já estão muito presentes no Brasil, não só por consequência da imigração, que é muito marcante em lugares específicos do país, mas também, pelo consumo,cada vez maior de produtos dessas culturas, o que ficou mais visível durante o ano de 2008 em que se comemorou o Centenário da Imigração Japonesa. Já se fala muito em animes e mangás e como eles atraem os jovens; só que existem outras manifestações culturais que são incorporadas pelos brasileiros e que não recebem destaque, como é o caso da música.

  • Inroads to Student Motivation in the Language Classroom: J-Pop
    Verla Uchida, A. (2018). Inroads to student motivation. Accents Asia, 10(2), 20-29. Inroads to Student Motivation in the Language Classroom: J-Pop Adrianne Verla Uchida1 Nihon University, Japan ABSTRACT As English is taught as a foreign language in Japan, the issue of whose English should be taught, how it should be taught and by whom are just a few of the questions that educators must decide when implementing a foreign language program. The answers to those questions then often have a direct influence on the learner and how their identity is shaped through learning English. Additionally, integrating pop culture materials that students are familiar with into the EFL classroom is useful as a means of addressing the concept of “cool” and globalization.
