  • The Ideology of the Long Take in the Cinema of Alfonso Cuarón by BRUCE ISAACS
    4.3 Reality Effects: The Ideology of the Long Take in the Cinema of Alfonso Cuarón BY BRUCE ISAACS Between 2001 and 2013, Alfonso Cuarón, working in concert with long-time collaborator, cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki, produced several works that effectively modeled a signature disposition toward film style. After a period of measured success in Hollywood (A Little Princess [1995], Great Expectations [1998]), Cuarón and Lubezki returned to Mexico to produce Y Tu Mamá También (2001), a film designed as a low- budget, independent vehicle (Riley). In 2006, Cuarón directed Children of Men, a high budget studio production, and in March 2014, he won the Academy Award for Best Director for Gravity (2013), a film that garnered the praise of the American and European critical establishment while returning in excess of half a billion dollars worldwide at the box office (Gravity, Box Office Mojo). Lubezki acted as cinematographer on each of the three films.[1] In this chapter, I attempt to trace the evolution of a cinematographic style founded upon the “long take,” the sequence shot of excessive duration. Reality Effects Each of Cuarón’s three films under examination demonstrates a fixation on the capacity of the image to display greater and more complex indices of time and space, holding shots across what would be deemed uncomfortable durations in a more conventional mode of cinema. As Udden argues, Cuarón’s films are increasingly defined by this mark of the long take, “shots with durations well beyond the industry standard” (26-27). Such shots are “attention-grabbing spectacles,” displaying the virtuosity of the filmmaker over and above the requirement of narrative unfolding.

    20 Established 1961 Lifestyle Music & Movies Tuesday, September 10, 2019 ortraying a terrorist attack on a New York art museum in “The Goldfinch,” the new film starring PNicole Kidman, evoked fears of psychological trau- ma and uncomfortable real-life parallels, filmmakers said Sunday. The chilling scene at the start of Donna Tartt’s Pulitzer-winning novel, on which the movie is based, sees 13-year-old Theo lose his mother and barely escape him- self through a crumbling pile of priceless art treasures at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The bombing is shown without sound and strictly from the foggy perspective of the child in flashback sequences, in part to avoid comparisons with incidents such as the 9/11 attacks in the same city, director John Crowley said at Toronto’s film festival. “With our per- spective it felt wrong to reference real terrorist attacks,” he said. “For you to have your head taken to that just did- n’t feel that appropriate.” Kidman, playing the mother of Theo’s friend who is forced to take in the child following the bombing, said she had studied the effects of trauma for her UN ambassador work on war and crimes against women and children, as well as a number of film roles. “So much of the time it is not screaming in the moment” but rather taking “a life- (From left) Ansel Elgort, Nicole Kidman and Oakes Fegley attend ‘The Goldfinch’ premiere Actress Sarah Paulson attends ‘The Actress Nicole Kidman attends “The time to process what has happened,” she said. “As an during the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival at Roy Thomson Hall in Toronto, Goldfinch’ premiere.

Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment flm and television, social media, and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; “The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Media Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; “WMC Media Watch: The Gender Gap in Coverage of Reproductive Issues”; “Writing Rape: How U.S. Media Cover Campus Rape and Sexual Assault”; “WMC Investigation: 10-Year Review of Gender & Emmy Nominations”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual WMC Status of Women in the U.S.
