By questioning and analyzing cinema's past and present industry with respect to various forms of staging from the perspective of artistic practice and research, a new space beyond is formulated. The author takes on a journey to reveal an imaginary - astronomical - political trope on and through what can be called the cinema of the present.

This book examines the structuring of space in Romanian and Hungarian cinema, and particularly how space is used to express the deep imprint of a socialist past on a post-socialist present. It considers this legacy of the Eastern European socialist regimes by interrogating the suffocating, tyrannical and enclosing structures that are presented in film. By tracing such paradigmatic models as horizontal and vertical enclosure, this book aims to show how enclosed spatial structuring restages the post-socialist era to produce an implicit and collective form of remembrance. While closely scrutinizing the interplay of location and image, Space in Romanian and Hungarian Cinema offers a new approach to the cinema of the region, which unites the filmic productions under a defined, post-socialist Eastern European spatial umbrella. By simultaneously portraying the gloom of a socialist past, while also conveying a sense of longing for a pre-capitalist era, these films convey how sense of unity and also ambivalence is a defining hallmark of Eastern European cinema.

In this cross-cultural history of narrative cinema and media from the 1910's to the 1930's, leading and emergent scholars explore the transnational crossings and exchanges that occurred in early cinema between the two world wars. Drawing on film archives from around the world, this volume advances the premise that silent cinema freely crossed national borders and linguistic thresholds in ways that became far less possible after the emergence of sound. These essays address important questions about the uneven forces-geographic, economic, political, psychological, textual, and experiential-that

Die Räume der Postmoderne scheinen nur ein Spiel von Zei-chen, ihre Zimmer, Landschaften und Universen nichts als mediale Simulation. Zugleich aber erweist sich in der Untersuchung exem-plarischer Raumrepräsentationen ein „realer“ Topos als beharrliche Utopie der Kunst. Ob in der Literatur oder im Film – die Postmoderne problematisiert ihre Beziehung zur „Realität“ in hochartifi-ziellen und autoreflexiven Darstel-lungsverfahren. Doch eine ihrer Do-minanten ist ebenso die stete Arbeit am Weltgehalt der Narration. So fragen etwa die hier behandelten Topologien von Paul Auster, Don DeLillo, Peter Greenaway und Michel-angelo Antonioni nach der Möglich-keit, jenseits aller Zeichenstrukturen räumliche Wirklichkeit zu berühren. Zwar markieren sie deren „unvermittelte Vermittlung“ letzten Endes als utopisch und richten sich im Schrift- oder Bildzeichen als ihrer Bedingung ein. Immer aber bleibt jener Utopos für die Postmoderne ein Ort, dem sich nur die erzählende Topographie anzunähern versteht.

Films provide valuable spaces for aesthetic experimentation and analysis, for cinemas openness to other media has always allowed it to expand its own. In Aesthetic Spaces, Brigitte Peucker shows that when painterly or theatrical conventions are appropriated by the medium of film, the dissonant effects produced open it up to intermedial reflection and tell us a great deal about cinema itself.The films studied in these chapters include those by Abbas Kiarostami, Alfred Hitchcock, Michelangelo Antonioni, Jean-Luc Godard, Carl Th. Dreyer, Peter Greenaway, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Ingmar Bergman, Jacques Rivette, Fritz Lang, F. W. Murnau, Lars von Trier, Spike Jonze, Éric Rohmer, Lech Majewski, and others. Where two media are in evidence in these films, there is usually a third, and often theater mediates between film and painting. Aesthetic Spaces interrogates issues of cinematic space and mise-en-scène from different but interconnected theoretical perspectives, organizing its chapters around some of the formal principles--space, spectator, frame, color and lighting, props, décor, and actor--that shape films.Drawing on the older arts to renew cinema, the films examined deploy paintings as material: Poussin and Bruegel, Rembrandt, Hals and Klimt, and medieval illustrations and modernist abstractions are used to expand our notions of cinematic space. Peucker shows that when different media come together in film, they create effects of dissonance out of which new modes of looking may arise.

Le cinéma classé X, en tant que lieu, en tant que pornotopia pré-numérique à l’ère de la virtualité potentielle des sexualités, le dispositif spatial ultime imaginé pour ces films, dissout la distance entre la réalité et la représentation, le regard et le spectacle, le décor et l’écran. La pornographie n’est plus un spectacle, c’est une expérience; la pornographie n’est plus vue, elle est vécue.
