During WWII, America and Japan were enemies – how did they paint each other? And more importantly, how did they show it to their people? This paper focuses on film during WWII, from Japan and America to answer these essential questions.

Language As An Existential Catharsis In The Secret Life Of Words By Isabel Coixet (El Lenguaje Como Catarsis Existencial En La Vida Secreta De Las Palabras De Isabel Coixet), Eva NúÑEz-MéNdez

World Languages and Literatures Faculty Publications and Presentations

Resumen: Este estudio se propone interpretar el lenguaje y sus representaciones simbólicas en la película La vida secreta de las palabras como factores simbólicos y catárticos, sobre todo en lo que se refiere a la vida de la protagonista femenina, Hanna. La directora, Isabel Coixet, logra transmitir a través de la diná-mica lingüística de los personajes un sinfín de emociones vitales que van desde el sufrimiento más pro-fundo, pasando por el aislamiento y el desamparo, hasta un completo vacio existencial. Hanna vive com-pletamente aislada y sola en el norte de Irlanda, en Belfast, después de haber logrado sobrevivir múltiples violaciones …

The Femme Fatale And The Exotic Queer Within Shinya Tuskamoto's Tetsuo: Gender As Narrative Tool Within An Allegory For Post Wwii Japan's Industrialized Identity Crisis, Nickolus Walters

Anthós

Within Shinya Tsukamoto’s seminal independent horror masterpiece Tetsuo, the viewer’s perceptions of reality and the present are distorted within a temporally disjointed blend of horrific fantasy and banal existence; this instability reflects the vocal and subconscious critiques of historical ontological truths exhibited within the emergent transnational genres of Japanese cyberpunk and American Avant-pop ideologies of the late 1980’s. Author Takayuki Tatsumi uses Shinya Tsukamoto's Tetsuo to illustrate the emergence of the "Japanoid," a technologically driven fusion of American and Japanese post-war identity best understood as a manifestation of Donna Haraway's socio-political "cyborg." Tatsumi strongly advises avoiding interpretation through a "queer" …

12 Eylül'Ü Konu Alan Filmlerde Karşı Anlatı Olarak Ses Ve Hafıza, Pelin Basci

World Languages and Literatures Faculty Publications and Presentations

During the last three decades, the 1980 military coup has acquired increased visibility in Turkish cinema. Films that treat the 1980 coup record two aspects of it as parts of a cinematographic narrative: some films explore the socio-political reasons behind the coup by capturing the period preceding the takeover, while others explore the human impact of the coup by capturing the period following it. Films in both groups interrupt the silence maintained by the official narrative about the coup, critique the justifications for military intervention, and expose the violence that was perpetrated in the name of the state.

Tax Competition In The Film Industry, Chelsea Villareal

Anthós

Being one of the largest industries in the world, the film industry remains an economic powerhouse in our society. It’s for this reason that film’s messages are not the only political aspects of their creation. Senators and representatives across the country are increasingly seeing the film industry as key towards economic development. With incentive packages being placed around the country, the politics over the film industry have become an overwhelming power game. Politicians are being threatened with recalls and impeachment to keep their economies afloat during harsh economic times. Without raising taxes, representatives have hit a wall. Increasing debt and …
