The Decline In Average Weekly Cinema Attendance, 1930-2000, Michelle C. Pautz
The Decline In Average Weekly Cinema Attendance, 1930-2000, Michelle C. Pautz
Political Science Faculty Publications
Since the beginnings of the motion picture industry, with the one small Edison studio in New Jersey in the early 1900s, America has fallen in love with films. One could argue and debate the reasons, employing everything from sociology to psychology to economics; but one thing is certain: This love affair has changed over the years. This change is perhaps most evident in the decline in the percentage of the United States population that goes to the cinema weekly. One interesting aspect of cinema attendance is that during the Great Depression, which swept the United States in the 1930s, a …
Boris Vian's American Movie: The Lost Authorship Of I Will Spit On Your Graves , M. Martin Guiney
Boris Vian's American Movie: The Lost Authorship Of I Will Spit On Your Graves , M. Martin Guiney
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
Boris Vian (1920-1959) is today considered one of France's foremost avant-garde novelists of the twentieth century, but in his lifetime he was known to a wide audience as the author of one work: J'irai cracher sur vos tombes (I Will Spit on Your Graves), a pastiche of American hard-boiled fiction which he published in 1946 under the name of a fictitious Black American author, Vernon Sullivan. Vian died twelve years later of heart failure while viewing the film adaptation, which he had no part in producing. Vian-as-author "died" long before that fateful moment, however: first when he perpetrated a …
"What Exactly Is A Black?": Interrogating The Reality Of Race In Jean Genet's The Blacks , Debby Thompson
"What Exactly Is A Black?": Interrogating The Reality Of Race In Jean Genet's The Blacks , Debby Thompson
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
On the dedication page of The Blacks, Genet writes "One evening an actor asked me to write a play for an all-black cast. But what exactly is a black? First of all, what's his color?" Prefiguring major issues and paradoxes of African American cultural studies today, The Blacks insists on the very real ways in which the black/white racial binary, like the very concept of race itself, is lived and socially enforced, and at the same time argues that the binary is ultimately a fiction, made real through performative reification. Genet's "clown show," ambiguously reversing the blackface minstrelsy tradition, …

Sojourner Truth: A Video Essay, Christina Laemers
Sojourner Truth: A Video Essay, Christina Laemers
Honors Theses
To hear people talk about Sojourner in areal context, with real stories from her days in Battle Creek gives the story the human element that eluded me for quite a time. Though my story changed its focus several times, the meaning of the project was always in the back of my mind. I really had to struggle to keep it in focus as time went on and the project began to grow exponentially.

The Casasola Legacy In El Paso, Samuel E. Sisneros
The Casasola Legacy In El Paso, Samuel E. Sisneros
University Libraries & Learning Sciences Faculty and Staff Publications
This article brings to light the historical context of El Paso’s unknown and uncelebrated connection to the legendary Casasola family photo dynasty in Mexico. The local El Paso Casasola portrait studio photographer and owner did not capture iconic Mexican Revolutionary images like those of his contemporary famed photographer family members in Mexico City, but instead he recorded the visual memory of ordinary individuals and families residing in the US/Mexico border region.
Male Representation In Latin American Film And Soap Operas, Antonio Medina-Rivera
Male Representation In Latin American Film And Soap Operas, Antonio Medina-Rivera
World Languages, Literatures, and Cultures Faculty Publications
In a post modern era the (de-)construction of national identities and gender identities is a complex issue. One cannot limit a nation, a group, or a gender to a definition or a set of characteristics. The redefinition of the Latin American "macho" is a necessary attempt to understand the male psyche, behavior and possibilities in a broader and more complex context.
Mr. Stewart And Mr. Colbert Go To Washington: Television Satirists Outside The Box, Amber Day, Jeffrey P. Jones, Geoffrey Baym
Mr. Stewart And Mr. Colbert Go To Washington: Television Satirists Outside The Box, Amber Day, Jeffrey P. Jones, Geoffrey Baym
English and Cultural Studies Journal Articles
The political satirists Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert are largely celebrated for their nightly television programs, which use humor to offer useful political information, provide important forums for deliberation and debate, and serve as sites for alternative interpretations of political reality. Yet, when the two satirists more directly intervene in the field of politics—which they increasingly do—they are often met by a chorus of criticism that suggests they have improperly crossed normative boundaries. This article explores Stewart and Colbert’s “out of the box” political performances, which include, among others, the 2010 Rally to Restore Sanity, Colbert’s testimony before Congress in …

Celebrity Memes, Audioshop, And Participatory Fan Culture: A Case Study On Keanu Reeves Memes, Danielle Nielsen, Diane Sabenacio Nititham
Faculty & Staff Research and Creative Activity
Contemporary meme culture keeps Keanu Reeves' image at the forefront of our imagination. Numerous Keanu-related memes circulate on the internet, featuring images of him from on and off screen. In this article, we argue that the rise of user-generated content, such as memes and social media, requires us to reconsider how audiences and fans consume, adapt, and circulate Keanu’s stardom. Specifically, we contend that memes and their attending participatory culture make Keanu familiar by placing him in knowable spaces and perpetuating his extraordinary ordinariness. To do so, we examine the 2019 ‘Keanu Reeves Walking in Slow Motion’ video clip from …

Rewriting Rendell: Pedro Almodóvar's "Carne Trémula", Linda M. Willem
Rewriting Rendell: Pedro Almodóvar's "Carne Trémula", Linda M. Willem
Scholarship and Professional Work - LAS
The 1997 film Carne trémula has been lauded within as well as outside of Spain as one of Pedro Almodóvar's best works. Critics on both sides of the Atlantic also have noted that this film marks a departure from Almodóvar's previous style, not only because of its tighter plotline and greater psychological depth, but also because Almodóvar's treatment of his material is more serious, less self-indulgent, and openly political. Russell Smith has suggested that the film's narrative coherence may be attributed in part to Almodóvar's use of Ruth Rendell's novel, Live Flesh (1998), as the basis for his script. This …

,,WER MIT den Juden kämpft, kämpft mit dem Teufel": So die Behauptung im Kommentar zu dem Film Juden ohne Maske, welcher vom Gaufilmstellenleiter Walter Böttcher im Auftrag des Reichspropagandaministeriums 1938 zusammengestellt wurde. Dieser Film sollte als Mittel der ,Volksaufkärung' über die Ziele und Beweggründe der nationalsozialistischen Politik fungieren und griff die antisemitische Fahne, die schon in der Münchener Ausstellung ,,Der ewige Jude" 1937 plakativ ausgehängt wurde, zielstrebig auf. Die Einsetzung dieses Filmes nach den Novemberpogromen im Jahr 1938 weist auf eine gezielte Taktik des Propagandaministeriums hin, vollendete Tatsachen nachträglich durch filmische Darstellungen zu rechtfertigen. Da die Nationalsozialisten die …
