Abstract

Quand on pense au cinéma noir américain des années Obama il nous vient tout de suite à l'esprit des titres comme La Couleur des sentiments, Le Majordome, Selma, Django Unchained ou 12 Years a Slave tous sortis entre 2009 et 2016. Beaucoup de films évoquant l'histoire des Afro-Américains en somme (l'esclavage, le racisme, la ségrégation, la lutte pour les droits civiques). Faut-il y voir une simple coïncidence ou une véritable tendance ? Comment en effet ne pas imaginer que l'élection d'un Noir à la tête d'une nation travaillée depuis toujours par la question raciale n'a pas eu un effet sur la production de films ? Ne parle-t-on pas d'ailleurs communément d'un “cinéma reaganien” pour évoquer la production hollywoodienne des années 80 (Rocky, Rambo, Top Gun...) - synonyme de blockbusters musclés, manichéens et conservateurs - alors pourquoi ne pas parler d'un “cinéma obamanien” ? En explorant les grandes tendances de la période, ce livre tentera ainsi de comprendre comment le cinéma noir de ces dernières années a été influencé thématiquement, voire idéologiquement, par la présidence de Barack Obama.

Abstract

The Style of Sleaze reasons that the aesthetic and thematic approach of the key texts within three distinct exploitation demarcations - blaxploitation, horror and sexploitation - indicate a concurrent evolution of filmmaking that could be seen as an identifiable cinematic movement.

Abstract

From 1972 to 1976, Hollywood made an unprecedented number of films targeted at black audiences. But following this era known as "blaxploitation," the momentum suddenly reversed for black filmmakers, and a large void separates the end of blaxploitation from the black film explosion that followed the arrival of Spike Lee?s She's Gotta Have It in 1986. Illuminating an overlooked era in African American film history, Trying to Get Over is the first in-depth study of black directors working during the decade between 1977 and 1986.

Keith Corson provides a fresh definition of blaxploitation, lays out a concrete reason for its end, and explains the major gap in African American representation during the years that followed. He focuses primarily on the work of eight directors?Michael Schultz, Sidney Poitier, Jamaa Fanaka, Fred Williamson, Gilbert Moses, Stan Lathan, Richard Pryor, and Prince?who were the only black directors making commercially distributed films in the decade following the blaxploitation cycle. Using the careers of each director and the twenty-four films they produced during this time to tell a larger story about Hollywood and the shifting dialogue about race, power, and access, Corson shows how these directors are a key part of the continuum of African American cinema and how they have shaped popular culture over the past quarter century.
