Directory of World Cinema: American Independent

Edited by John Berra

ISBN 9781841503684Paperback UK £16 | US $25

Part of the Directory of World Cinema series

With high-profile Academy Award nominations, independent films have

been at the forefront recently like never before. But the roots of critical

and commercial successes like The Hurt Locker and Precious can be traced

to the 1960s, when many talented film-makers emerged to capture the

attention of a rapidly growing audience of young viewers. At a time when

independent films are enjoying considerable cultural cachet, this easy-to-

use yet authoritative guide will find an eager audience in media historians,

film studies scholars and movie buffs alike.

Film Studies

An interest in horror and fantasy, satire, and maintaining a reper-tory company of performers are elements that weave in and out of Stuart Gordon’s oeuvre. For many directors, the film they are remembered for is an early effort and this is certainly the case with Gordon: his debut Re-Animator (1985) is still a fan favourite, and one of the best comedic horrors of the 1980s. However, in the 1970s, Gordon held the position of Artistic Director of the Chicago Organic Theatre Company, which garnered a reputation for pro-ductions of experimental and challenging plays including the first staging of David Mamet’s Sexual Perversity in Chicago. Despite a further six horror films over the next two decades, Gordon has recently returned to his theatrical roots, filming dramas and thrillers with small casts, revolving around life-threatening situations and issues of morality.

Gordon’s prolific output has varied in popularity and the relative success and failure of each project is often due to the director’s level of artistic control. His H P Lovecraft adaptation, Re-Animator, includes dozens of zombies and mutated creatures, which shows a unique mixture of Frankenstein-style experiments and the gore of the increasingly-modern horror films of the early 1980s, such as The Evil Dead (1981). The film is played straight by all involved, and it is the absurdity of the blood-and-guts set pieces that provides the humour, not to mention the music, which has been accurately described as a disco version of Bernard Herrmann’s score for Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho (1960). Gordon’s follow-up, From Beyond (1986), is less successful. Although another Lovecraft adaptation, with much of the same cast and crew, this is a gorier film with less-sympathetic characters that favours spectacle over content.

Synopsis

The Devil’s Rejects – A family of serial killers, joined by local ‘clown’ Captain Spaulding, are caught unawares by a large police visit to their ranch, leading to a bloody shoot-out with casualties on both sides. Three of the family escape, another is elsewhere and the mother of the clan is taken into custody. On the run, Otis and Baby kidnap a couple and their daugh-ter to take with them as hostages and eventually seek refuge with Charlie Altamont, an old friend. However, he betrays them to the police and they narrowly escape again, bloodied and wounded. Fleeing cross country by car, the three killers see an armed roadblock approaching and they accelerate the car, accepting their imminent demise.

Critique

Rob Zombie’s directorial debut and its sequel show a director paying affectionate homage to various genres while trying also to create modernist horror films, which leads to some-what mixed results. House of 1,000 Corpses certainly displays a scattershot approach to film-making – a lurid, confusing film that lurches from one set piece to the next as the direc-tor uses every visual trick he observed in the music videos made for his band White Zombie. Favouring spectacle over coherent storytelling, Zombie’s first film uses flashbacks, flash-forwards, various disorientating visual effects and a relentless score to browbeat the audience into some kind of visceral reaction. As a film which depicts a group of teenag-ers experiencing a horror ride at a fun fair, first as recreation and then as participants, it is certainly appropriate for the director to give the audience a similar experience – unreal-istic splatter, unexpected shocks and over the top visuals. However, these experiences sets the tone for almost the entire movie, even in its quieter moments, and, as even the protagonists are drawn in broad strokes, it is hard for viewers to engage with anything that is going on. The title of the film refers to Herschell Gordon Lewis films, such as 2,000 Maniacs! (1965), but while the lack of structure approaches some of Gordon’s endearing deficiencies as a film-maker, this is not a laudable pursuit for someone making their directorial debut. This attention-deficit-disorder-style of film-making is familiar to anyone who has seen Oliver Stone’s Natural Born Killers (1994) and, indeed, The Devil’s Rejects also apes that film’s plot to a certain extent, but while Stone’s film is watchable, due to Tarantino’s witty script and a great cast, here House of 1,000 Corpses predicts the similar failure of Tarantino’s own Grindhouse (2007): an overblown affection for Z-list movies that may be enjoyable in a kitsch kind of way, but certainly not an ideal to aspire to.

Conversely, The Devil’s Rejects is a much tighter, grounded and enjoyable film. While the plot picks up not long after the first film, it turns the antagonists of the original into the eponymous protagonists of the second but, with a clearly-defined scenario from the outset, it means new viewers of the saga can (thankfully) skip its predecessor without worry-ing that they have missed anything. As the gore and torture scenes of the original were clearly that film’s raison d’être, the different focus of the sequel makes you wonder whether a different approach could have made that film watchable. Certainly, The Devil’s Rejects, whilst not necessarily featuring likeable characters, features human monsters who engage a certain prurient curiosity in the audience. While The Devil’s Rejects is a more accomplished and engaging film than its predecessor, the flaw in making the killers the focus of the film without them having any endearing qualities – unlike the anti heroes of 1970s’ films such as Badlands (1973) – means

Edited by Birgit Beumers

ISBN 9781841503721Paperback UK £16 | US $25

Part of the Directory

of World Cinema series Be they musicals or melodramas, Russian films have a long

and fascinating history of addressing the major social and

political events of their time. From Sergei Eisenstein’s anti-

tsarist drama, Battleship Potemkin, to socialist realism,

to the post-glasnost thematic explosion, this volume

explores the socio-political impact of Russian cinema and

the former Soviet Union. Introductory essays establish key

Part of the Directory of World

Cinema series

This ambitious volume offers an in-depth and exciting

look at the cinema produced in Australia and New Zealand

since the turn of the twentieth century. Though the

two nations share considerable cultural and economic

connections, their film industries remain distinct, marked

by differences of scale, funding and relations with national

cinema. Through essays about prominent genres and

themes, profiles of directors, and comprehensive reviews

of significant titles, this user-friendly guide explores the

diversity and distinctiveness of films from Australia and

New Zealand.

Europe and Love in Cinema

Edited by Jo Labanyi, Luisa Passerini and Karen Diehl

ISBN 9781841503790Paperback UK £19.95 | US $35 Europe and Love in Cinema explores the relationship

between love and Europeanness in a range of films from

the 1920s to now. A critical look at how love is portrayed

in cinema from across Europe and the United States, this

volume exposes constructed notions of ‘Europeanness’

that both define and separate Europe. These films engage

with ideas of Europe from both outside and within and

offer alternative models of love. A collection of essays from

top film scholars, this book demonstrates the centrality of

desire to film narrative and explores multiple models of

love within Europe’s frontiers.

New Trends in Argentine and Brazilian Cinema

Edited by Carolina Rocha and Cacilda M. Rêgo

ISBN 9781841503752Paperback UK £19.95 | US $35

As part of economic reforms in the early 1990s, the

Brazilian and Argentine presidents eliminated state

financial support for cinema, affecting the film industry

dramatically. By the mid-1990s new laws were passed

reestablishing subsidies and credit lines – and allowing the

rebirth of national cinema in both countries. This volume

surveys Brazilian and Argentine cinematic production from

its dramatic rebirth to the present. It addresses not only

the commercially successful films but also the effects of

globalization and cultural policies on public incentives for

film-making. An indispensable resource for students of film

and cultural studies.

Misreading Postmodern Antigone: Marco Bellocchio’s Devil in the Flesh (Diavolo in Corpo)

Edited by Jan Jagodzinski

ISBN 9781841503615Paperback UK £19.95 | US $40

In the mid-1980s, film director Marco Bellocchio and

psychoanalyst Massimo Fagioli co-wrote Devil in the Flesh,

a politically and sexually charged film illustrating some

of Fagioli’s controversial theories. Echoing anti-Lacanian

sentiment, the film is perhaps best remembered for a

scene in which the character Andrea misreads a section

of the Greek tragedy, Antigone. But this scene has itself

been frequently misread, opening up the text to questions

of feminism, politics and the representation of Antigone.

Displaying considerable analytic depth, Misreading

Postmodern Antigone considers these divergent readings

and what they have to tell us about contemporary society.

Historical Comedy on Screen

Edited by Hannu Salmi

ISBN 9781841503677

Paperback UK £19.95 | US $40

In 1893, Friedrich Engels branded history ‘the cruelest

goddess of all.’ This sorrowful vision of the past is

deeply rooted in the Western imagination, and history is

presented as a joyless playground rather than a world of

possibilities. Historical Comedy on Screen examines this

tendency, paying particular attention to the themes most

difficult to laugh at and exploring the place where comical

and historical storytelling intersect. The first scholarly

book of its kind, this work emphasizes the many oft-

overlooked comical renderings of history and asks what

they have to tell us if we begin to take them seriously.

Deleuze and Film Music: Building a Methodological Bridge between Film Theory and Music

By Gregg Redner

ISBN 9781841503707Paperback UK £19.95 | US $40

The analysis of film music is one of the fastest-growing

areas of interest in film studies but scholarship has been

beset by the lack of a common language and methodology.

Drawing on the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze, Gregg Redner

provides an analysis of the problem, which then forms the

basis of his exploration of the function of film score and its

relation to film’s other elements. Not just an examination of

persistent difficulties in this new area of study, Deleuze and

Film Music also offers a solution that will take film music

analysis to a new level.

Recording Memories from Political Violence: A Film-maker’s Journey

By Cahal McLaughlin

ISBN 9781841503011Paperback UK £19.95 | US $40

Based on work carried out with survivor groups in South

Africa and Northern Ireland, Recording Memories from

Political Violence aims to describe and analyze the use

of documentary film-making in recording experiences of

political conflict. A variety of issues relevant to the genre

are addressed, including the importance of ethics in the

collaboration between the film-maker and the participant

and the effect of location on the accounts of participants.

McLaughlin draws on nearly twenty years of production

experience, in this informed and instructive contribution

to documentary film-making and post-conflict studies.

The Blind

Edited by Alfredo Cramerotti

ISBN 9781841503622 PaperbackUK £24.95 | US $50

Part of the Critical Photography series

Images of animals are everywhere but the visibility offered by wildlife

photography contributes to an image of the animal as separate from the human.

Yet how can we get closer to animals without making them aware of us or

changing their environment? ‘The Blind’ might be the answer. Developed for

naturalists, the blind is a camouflage cloak that works on the principle that an

object vanishes from sight if light rays are not reflected, but are instead forced to

flow around. In fifty stunning colour photographs, this volume shows the cloak

tested in nature reserves, grasslands and urban environments.

Streets of Crocodiles: Photography, Media, and Postsocialist Landscapes in Poland

By Katarzyna Marciniak and Kamil Turowski

ISBN 9781841503653 PaperbackUK £24.95 | US $50

Picturing Immigration: Photojournalistic Representation of Immigrants in Greek and Spanish Press

By Athanasia Batziou

ISBN 9781841503608 PaperbackUK £19.95 | US $40

At the turn of the twentieth century, Greece and Spain saw

an influx of immigrants from developing nations. As their

foreign populations grew, both countries’ national media

were there to document the change – shaping perceptions

of the immigrant groups by their new countries and the

world. Picturing Immigration offers a comparative study of

the photojournalistic framing of immigrants in these two

nations. It focuses on images to explore a host of topics,

including media representation of minorities, immigration

and stereotypes.

Moving the Eye Through 2-D Design: A Visual Primer

By Buy Shaver

ISBN 9781841503639 PaperbackUK £19.95 | US $40

Moving the Eye Through 2-D Design provides a step-by-step

approach to understanding what causes us to look at any

two-dimensional media and how to maintain visual interest.

This volume introduces a method that applies aspects of

line, shape, value and colour directly to moving the viewer’s

eye to and through a composition. The basic principles of

2-D design are discussed as integrated elements that relate

to the art-making process. Equally applicable to the fine

arts, applied arts, and digital media, this book provides a

comprehensive methodology through which artists can

create dynamic works of art.

This powerful presentation of photographs of Poland

from the late 1980s to the present depicts the hybridized

landscape of this pivotal Eastern European nation

following its entry into the European Union. A visual record

of the country’s transition from socialism to capitalism, it

focuses on the industrial blue-collar city of Łódz – located

in the heart of New Europe and home to nearly one million

people. Photographer Kamil Turowski’s pictures are

captivating – seeming to conceal a looming threat – while

Katarzyna Marciniak’s accompanying text expands on

the photos and the ‘crocodilian’ texture of contemporary

Eastern Europe.

Why We Make Art And Why it is Taught (2nd ed.)

By Richard Hickman

ISBN: 9781841503783PaperbackUK £14.95 | US $25

Governments around the world spend millions on art

and cultural institutions, evidence of a basic human

need for what the author refers to as ‘creating aesthetic

significance.’ Yet what function or purpose does art

satisfy in today’s society? In this thorough and accessible

text, Hickman rejects the current vogue for social and

cultural accounts of the nature of art-making in favour

of a largely psychological approach aimed at addressing

contemporary developmental issues in art education.

Bringing to bear current ideas about evolutionary

psychology, this second edition will be an important

resource for all interested in arts education.

photography, literature, painting, music and advertising.

The Grey Zone in Health and Illness

By Alan Blum

ISBN 9781841503646Hardback UK £29.95 | US $60

Part of the Culture, Disease, and Well-Being: The Grey Zone of Health and Illness series

With The Grey Zone in Health and Illness, Alan Blum offers

a new perspective, outlining a highly nuanced theoretical

approach to health, illness, suffering and disease and the

ethical and aesthetic implications of medical practice.

Drawing on a range of thinkers from Plato to Lacan, the book

identifies the Grey Zone as the persistence and function

of ambiguity in everyday life that requires a complete

rethinking of health and sickness, self-governance and

negligence. A heady, cutting-edge intervention in a critical

area of society, The Grey Zone in Health and Illness will have

wide ramifications in the academy and beyond.

Global Technological Change: From Hard Technology to Soft Technology (2nd ed.)

By Zhouying Jin

ISBN 9781841503769Paperback UK £24.95 | US $50

This revised and updated edition of Global Technological

Change reconsiders how we make and use technology

today. With human-centred ‘soft technology’ driving

machine-based ‘hard technology’ in ever more complex

ways, Jin provides a much-needed understanding of the

human dimension of technological advancement. Through

Eastern and Western philosophy, she offers insight into

the dynamic between the two as it relates to a variety of

technological innovations. Global Technological Change

continues to challenge assumptions about technology and

the gap between the developed and developing countries in

the twenty-first century.

methodology.

Spectacular Death: Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Mortality and (Un)representability

Edited by Tristanne Connolly

ISBN 9781841503226

Hardback UK £29.95 | US $60

Part of the Culture, Disease, and

Well-Being: The Grey Zone of Health

and Illness series

An interdisciplinary collection of essays, this anthology

considers to what extent a subject as elusive as death can

be examined. Though it touches us all, we can perceive it

only in life - with the result that we treat it as a clinical or

social problem. This volume goes beyond these models to

question how the management of death is organized and

how death is at once feared and embraced. Drawing on the

latest in medical humanities, Spectacular Death gives an

enlightening new perspective on death from the classical

world to the twenty-first century.

and linguistic practice. Featuring scholars from a wide variety of nationalities

and disciplinary areas, this collection of essays will speak to an equally wide

readership and provide an important counter-discourse to the images of

migration and racism frequently portrayed in the media.

Theatre in Passing: A Moscow Photo-Diary

By Elena Siemens

ISBN 9781841503745Paperback UK £19.95 | US $40

Inspired by French philosopher Michel de Certeau’s model of a ‘second, poetic

geography’ in which the walker invents the space observed by the voyeur,

Theatre in Passing takes the reader on a tour of spaces of performance in

Moscow. Through text and photography, the city’s ‘theatrical geography’ is

uncovered, from the Bolshoi Theatre to hidden gems like the recently restored

Kuskovo estate. With additional sections on street theatre and public gatherings,

Theatre in Passing is a must-read book for anyone curious about the theatrical

architecture and geography of Russia’s capital.
