  • Ancient Greek Myth and Drama in Greek Cinema (1930–2012): an Overall Approach
    Konstantinos KyriaKos ANCIENT GREEK MYTH AND DRAMA IN GREEK CINEMA (1930–2012): AN OVERALL APPROACH Ι. Introduction he purpose of the present article is to outline the relationship between TGreek cinema and themes from Ancient Greek mythology, in a period stretching from 1930 to 2012. This discourse is initiated by examining mov- ies dated before WW II (Prometheus Bound, 1930, Dimitris Meravidis)1 till recent important ones such as Strella. A Woman’s Way (2009, Panos Ch. Koutras).2 Moreover, movies involving ancient drama adaptations are co-ex- amined with the ones referring to ancient mythology in general. This is due to a particularity of the perception of ancient drama by script writers and di- rectors of Greek cinema: in ancient tragedy and comedy film adaptations,3 ancient drama was typically employed as a source for myth. * I wish to express my gratitude to S. Tsitsiridis, A. Marinis and G. Sakallieros for their succinct remarks upon this article. 1. The ideologically interesting endeavours — expressed through filming the Delphic Cel- ebrations Prometheus Bound by Eva Palmer-Sikelianos and Angelos Sikelianos (1930, Dimitris Meravidis) and the Longus romance in Daphnis and Chloë (1931, Orestis Laskos) — belong to the origins of Greek cinema. What the viewers behold, in the first fiction film of the Greek Cinema (The Adventures of Villar, 1924, Joseph Hepp), is a wedding reception at the hill of Acropolis. Then, during the interwar period, film pro- duction comprises of documentaries depicting the “Celebrations of the Third Greek Civilisation”, romances from late antiquity (where the beauty of the lovers refers to An- cient Greek statues), and, finally, the first filmings of a theatrical performance, Del- phic Celebrations.

  • The Films of Theo Angelopoulos: a Voyage in Time
    The Films of Theo Angelopoulos: A Voyage in Time Evangelos Makrygiannakis Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Edinburgh 2008 Abstract This thesis provides a critical enquiry into the films of Theo Angelopoulos. Dividing his films into two periods—the one running through the seventies and the other starting with the advent of the eighties—I will examine the representation of history in the first period of Angelopoulos and the metaphor of the journey in his subsequent films. Furthermore, I will trace the development of an aesthetic based on long takes which evokes a particular sense of time in his films. This aesthetic, which is based on the internal rhythm of the shot, inscribes a temporality where past, present, and future coexist in a contemporaneous image. Being free from the requirements of an evolving plot, this image is an autonomous image which allows the passing of time to be felt. Autonomy, which I will define after philosopher Cornelius Castoriadis as an immanent movement towards change, can be also used to describe the process of changing oneself or a given society from within. In exploring the resonances autonomy has, I will make a connection between the social and the cinematic; an attempt which is informed by what Angelopoulos’ films do of their own accord. In this way, I will suggest that Angelopoulos is important not only for the history of film but also for one’s modus vivendi. iii iv Acknowledgements I would like to deeply thank my supervisors, the late Professor Dietrich Scheunemann, Professor Martine Beugnet and Professor John Orr, for all their precious feedback and support throughout the years.

  • A Retrospective of Greek Film April 23 - June 14, 1993
    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release March 1993 CineMythology: A Retrospective of Greek Film April 23 - June 14, 1993 The first film exhibition to provide an overview of the history of Greek cinema is presented at The Museum of Modern Art from April 23 to June 14, 1993. CineMythology: A Retrospective of Greek Film, composed of forty-five films, reveals a cinema with a strong sense of social awareness. Thematically, it draws on distinctly Greek sources, including mythology and classical drama; questions of national identity, displacement and immigration; and the transformation of an agrarian society into a modern industrial one. During the opening weekend of the exhibition, Melina Mercouri and Irene Papas introduce films in which they star. On Friday, April 23, at 6:00 p.m., Ms. Mercouri and director Michalis Cacoyannis introduce Stella (1955). On Saturday, April 24, at 5:00 p.m., Ms. Papas and Mr. Cacoyannis introduce Electra (1962). On Sunday, April 25, at 2:00 p.m., Ms. Mercouri introduces Never on Sunday (1960). Other programs feature appearances by directors Costas Ferris, Nikos Koundouros, Nicos Papatakis, Pantelis Voulgaris, and Costas Vrettakos. While Greek cinema is clearly a part of a European tradition, it possesses a distinct style with periods of excellence often interrupted by turbulent political events. The early developments of Greek cinema, late in comparison to Europe and the United States, exhibit unique qualities. Social Decay (1931, Stelios Tatasopoulos) is informed by a distinct political and social awareness, and Daphnis and Chloe (1931, Oresits Laskos) is closely tied - more - 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y.

  • Digital Audiovisual Content in Marketing and Distributing Cultural Products and the Arts in Greece
    School of Journalism and Mass Communications Faculty of Economic and Political Sciences New Media and Technologies in the era of Convergence: Digital Audiovisual Content in Marketing and Distributing Cultural Products and the Arts in Greece. BY Nikos Gryllakis A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF DIGITAL MEDIA, COMMUNICATION AND JOURNALISM Specialization: Digital Media, Culture and Communication Supervisor: Dr. Maria Matsiola May 2021 i ABSTRACT The aim of the present study is to reflect upon the use of digital technologies for the marketing of arts and cultural events in the cultural organizations and foundations by conveying experts’ interviews and reviewing relevant literature. The key question that the study seeks to touch upon is whether cultural foundations and events exploit the amenities of the digital technologies and to what extent. The ways of production of digital audiovisual content will be of special focus to the dissertation and the strategy of digital campaigns of organizations as well. The primary foundations that the dissertation will be focusing upon are the organizations of Thessaloniki International Film Festival, Dimitria Festival as well as the major cultural foundation in Athens, namely the Onassis Foundation. Other significant organizations or foundations relevant to art have also been of interest to the dissertation. What the research seeks to examine is issues such as digital content creation, arts marketing, use of digital media and new technologies, brand identity and strategy building. Particular digital campaigns of foundations will be reviewed from a closer focus. The dissertation was conveyed during the turbulent times of the COVID – 19 pandemic, therefore the changing conditions of the media will not be overlooked.

Decadence and the Necrophilic Intertext of Film Noir: Nikos Nikolaidis’ Singapore Sling1 Kostas Boyiopoulos Durham University Because I refuse to discern the boundaries between reality, dream, and cinema, I concluded that black-and-white film is the richest in chthonic colours. –– Nikos Nikolaidis2 An erudite, inveterate cineaste, dedicated auteur and provocateur, Nikos Nikolaidis (1939–2007) became one of the most distinctive and uncompromising voices of Greek and world cinema. Singapore Sling: Ο Άνθρωπος που Αγάπησε ένα Πτώµα [Singapore Sling: The Man Who Loved a Corpse] (1990) is his chef d’œuvre, a bold, independent film that has acquired cult status internationally. The film is an elitist shocker that, as the exotic cocktail of its title suggests, blends genres and styles: black comedy, Grand Guignol, splatter horror, Gothic melodrama, tragedy, and, most of all, film noir. In fact, classic film noir is not only referenced but is the very skin that gives form and shape to Singapore Sling. This is a film whose narrative and visual motifs rely on allusions to other films.

  • Greek Neo-Noir: Reflecting a Narrative of Crisis
    FILMICON: Journal of Greek Film Studies ISSUE 4, December 2017 Greek Neo-Noir: Reflecting a Narrative of Crisis Mikela Fotiou Independent Researcher Nikitas Fessas University of Ghent ABSTRACT This article proposes a brief chronology/evolution of film noir in the context of Greek Cinema, in order to look at Greek neo-noirs as narratives of crisis. The article has two case studies: Nikos Nikoladis’s O chamenos ta pernei ola/Loser Takes All (2002) and Alexis Alexiou’s Tetarti 04:45/Wednesday 04:45 (2015). These two films are products of two distinct periods in modern Greek history, that are, however, linked. We claim that Greek filmmakers have used (neo)noir characteristics, such as its tropes, and typology of characters, to represent both the Greek financial and socio-political crisis, but also, vice versa, they have used nationally and historically specific versions of (Greek) crisis as a backdrop for their neo-noir narratives. Therefore, we argue that films like Loser Takes All, and Wednesday 04:45 both reflect and mediate the crisis in their form and content, while they feed these neo-noir representations back into Greek society and culture, as they constitute a lens through which to look at, and make sense of periods of crisis. KEYWORDS Alexiou crisis film noir genre Greek cinema neo-noir Nikolaidis 110 GREEK NEO-NOIR ISSUE 4, December 2017 INTRODUCTION Whether, as James Naremore (2008: 9, 311) puts it, noir constitutes a period, a genre, a cycle, a style, a phenomenon, or even a discourse, classic film noir of the 1940s and 1950s has greatly influenced global cinema, including European national cinemas.
