Abstract

Cinema and Spectatorship is the first book to focus entirely on the history and role of the spectator in contemporary film studies. While 1970's film theory insisted on a distinction between the cinematic subject and film-goers, Judith Mayne suggests that a very real friction between ""subjects"" and ""viewers"" is in fact central to the study of spectatorship. In the book's first section Mayne examines three theoretical models of spectatorship: the perceptual, the institutional and the historical, while the second section focuses on case studies which crystallize many of the issue

Abstract

The title of this book takes as its point of reference those early, primitive films in which mostly men, but occasionally women, peek through keyholes, offering bold demonstrations of the voyeuristic pleasure that has been central to virtually every contemporary theory of cinema. When we imagine a "woman" and a "keyhole," it is usually a woman on the other side of the keyhole, as the proverbial object of the look, that comes to mind. In this work the author is not necessarily reversing the conventional image, but rather asking what happens when women are situated on both sides of the keyhole. The question is not only who or what is on either side of the keyhole, but also what lies between them, what constitutes the threshold that makes representation possible. In all of the films discussed, the threshold between subject and object, between inside and outside, between virtually all opposing pairs, is a central figure for the reinvention of cinematic narrative. Films discussed include Helke Sander's Redupers, Julie Dash's Illusions, Patricia Rozema's I've Heard the Mermaids Singing, Yvonne Rainer's The Man Who Envied Women, Chantal Akerman's Je tu il elle, Ulrike Ottinger's Ticket of No Return, Anne Severson's Near the Big Chakra, Suzan Pitt's Asparagus, Germaine Dulac's The Smiling Madame Beudet, Agnes Varda's Cleo from 5 to 7, Chantal Akerman's Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles, Trin T. Minh-ha's Reassem-blage, Laleen Jayamanne's A Song of Ceylon, and the films of Dorothy Arzner.

Abstract

In dit boek analyseert Judith Mayne de rol van de vrouw in de cinema, zowel in de klassieke Hollywood-film als in wat men doorgaans 'vrouwenfilms' noemt. Wanneer men het in feministische kringen over de klassieke Hollywood-film heeft, bestempelt men deze als een bevestiging van de heersende rolpatronen, waar de mannen meewerken aan de opbouw van de verhaallijn en de vrouwen objecten zijn die instaan voor het 'spektakel'. Judith Mayne betoogt echter aan de hand van legendarische films als 'The Big Sleep' dat dit dualisme lang niet altijd opgaat, en dat de man/vrouw verhoudingen in Hollywood-producties op zijn minst ambivalent zijn. Benevens aan een overzicht van theorieën over de rol van de vrouw in Hollywood, wijdt de acteur ook veel aandacht aan de theorievorming rond de zogenaamde vrouwenfilms, films die gemaakt zijn door vrouwen en met doorgaans andere subject-object verhoudingen dan in de kassieke cinema. Vooral het werk van de cineaste Dorothy Arzner wordt onder deze noemer belicht. In een laatste hoofdstuk tenslotte wordt aandacht besteed aan de 'primitieve' film, en dan vooral hoe noties als 'de vrouw' en 'het vrouwelijke' erin worden ingevuld.
