Abstract

"This book helps readers understand Moonlight's profound political and social importance, the innovative technical choices adopted by director Barry Jenkins, and the film's adoption and disruption of traditional coming-of-age themes through the specific prism of Chiron's childhood and youth. Moonlight (2016) is an intensely moving and poetically rendered coming-of-age story about a young gay Black boy, Chiron. Highly praised by both critics and audiences internationally, it garnered a surprise Best Picture win at the 2017 Academy Awards, enshrining its significance within a global cinematic canon. This book provides an account of how Moonlight can be situated in relation to African American youth films, contemporary queer cinema and its appeal to youth market and representations of non-normative childhood and adolescence. It analyses the reception of Moonlight in terms of its form and profound emotional impact on spectators offering new visions of African American boyhoods, while also contributing an extended exploration of the social and political context of the film in relation to Obama, Trump, and diversity in filmmaking. Highlighting to students and scholars the powerful emotional pull of Moonlight and why it is a highly significant film, this book is ideal for those interested in critical race studies, queer theory, youth cinema, African American cinema, and LGBTQ cinema"--

Abstract

"In Screening Gender, Framing Genre, Peter Dickinson examines the history and theory of films adapted from Canadian literature through the lens of gender studies. Unique in its discussion of a range of different adaptations, including films based on novels, plays, poetry, and Native orature, this study offers new and often provocative readings of works by such well-known Canadian authors as Margaret Atwood, Marie-Claire Blais, and Michael Ondaatije, and by such important Canadian filmmakers as Mireille Dansereau, Claude Jutra, Robert LePage, and Bruce McDonald."--Jacket.

Abstract

This turn-of-the-century moment - when queer love has become increasingly visible in both popular culture and socio-political realms - provides an ideal occasion for a critical examination of same-sex love stories in the media. Focusing primarily on film and televisual texts from the ten years before and after the millennium, the essays collected in Queer Love in Film and Television ask how recent films and television programs play with, imitate, subvert, mock, critique, and queer the romantic narrative conventions so common in Western culture. The collection follows the trajectory of the conventional romance narrative, from the pursuit of romantic love to the creation of families, and then it pushes further, into marginal regions where conventional narratives fail to venture, and then turns back to consider how that narrative is itself transformed (or queered) through adaptation

Abstract

Unique en son genre, ce livre offre un panorama très complet des multiples représentations des gays et des lesbiennes dans le 7e art, de son invention à nos jours. Un tour d'horizon qui ne se limite pas au cinéma gay ni aux grands films parlant d'homosexualité (Mort à Venise, L'Homme blessé, Victor Victoria, Le Secret de Brokeback Mountain...) mais qui englobe des genres plus secrets (le western, le flirt noir) ou plus inattendus (les duos comiques à la Laurel et Hardy, les comédies franchouillardes, le cinéma d'horreur), sans oublier l'érotisme. La manière dont le cinéma parle d'homosexualité est tout sauf neutre : que les homosexuels soient réprimés ou tolérés, les films en portent la trace. C'est cette histoire complexe, où se mêlent des aspects purement cinématographiques et d'autres de nature plus politique, que cet ouvrage s'efforce de retracer. Greta Garbo, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Rock Hudson, Barbara Hammer, Wong Kar-wai, Youssef Chahine, Jean Cocteau, Gus Van Sant, Pedro Almodovar, François Ozon, Pier Paolo Pasolini et Rose Troche font partie de ce voyage à la fois chronologique et géographique à travers plus de 5 000 films et 600 photographies.

Abstract

The Desiring-Image yields new models of queer cinema produced since the late 1980s, based on close formal analysis of diverse films as well as innovative contributions to current film theory. The book defines "queer cinema" less as a specific genre or in terms of gay and lesbian identity, but more broadly as a kind of filmmaking that conveys sexual desire and orientation as potentially fluid within any individual's experience, and as forces that can therefore unite unlikely groups of people along new lines, socially, sexually, or politically. The films driving this analysis range from celebrated fixtures of the New Queer Cinema of the 1990s (including Cheryl Dunye's The Watermelon Woman and Todd Haynes's Velvet Goldmine) to sexually provocative films of the same era that are rarely classified as queer (David Cronenberg's Dead Ringers and Naked Lunch) to breakout films by 21st-century directors (Rodney Evans's Brother to Brother, John Cameron Mitchell's Shortbus). To frame these readings and to avoid heterosexist assumptions in other forms of film analysis, The Desiring-Image revisits the work of the philosopher Gilles Deleuze, whose two major works on cinema somehow never address the radical ideas about desire he expresses in other texts. This book brings those notions together in innovative ways, making them clear and accessible to newcomers and field specialists alike, with clear, illustrated examples drawn from a wide range of movies extending beyond the central case studies. Thus, The Desiring-Image speaks to readers interested in queer and gay/lesbian studies, in film theory, in feminist and sexuality scholarship, and in theory and philosophy, putting those discourses into rich, surprising conversations with popular cinema of the last 30 years.
