The treatment—and mistreatment—of women throughout history continues to be a necessary topic of discussion, in order for progress to be made and equality to be achieved.

In more than 130 entries, this volume explores a number of cinematic grievances including: the objectification of women’s bodies the limited character types available for female performersthe lack of sexual diversity on the screen the limited range of desirable traits for female performers the use of gratuitous sexthe narrow focus on heteronormative depictions of courtship and romance The films discussed here include As Good as It Gets (1999), Beauty and The Beast (2017), The Devil Wears Prada (2006), Do the Right Thing (1989), Easy A (2010), The Forty-Year-Old Virgin (2005), Hidden Figures (2016), Lost in Translation (2003), Mulholland Drive...

Escritores y deportistas, cómicos y políticos, divas y luchadoras, héroes y asesinos... todos mueren. Y todos, en general por acto, pero también por omisión, se despiden de este mundo de alguna manera, producen un último gesto. Este libro cataloga distintas formas de marcharse, con las «últimas palabras» como eje, como una de las bellas artes, como género literario. Hay personas que elucubraron durante años la frase con la que se iban a despedir. Otros siguieron su naturaleza y murieron tal como vivieron, sin traicionar su esencia. Hay muertes naturales y las hay torpes, las hay esperadas e insólitas, y también hay formas de morir íntimamente ligadas a formas de matar. Y todas, sin excepción, dicen algo.

47 Ronin

47 Ronin

Autor: John Allyn

Número de Páginas: 168

A classic tale that will captivate lovers of Japan, history, and epic adventure alike. Japan's most celebrated tale of chivalry, loyalty and revenge--and the basis for a Hollywood feature film starring Keanu Reaves--47 Ronin is the epic tale of a heroic band of Samurai warriors who defy the Japanese Emperor to avenge the honor of their fallen master. The story begins in 1701 when the noble Lord Asano attacks an official at court. His punishment is swift and harsh--the Emperor orders Lord Asano to commit ritual suicide (harikiri). His lands are confiscated, his family exiled, and his Samurai warrior brigade is disbanded--becoming Ronin or masterless, wandering renegades. While appearing to follow the Emperor's instructions, the 47 Ronin plot in secret for many years, biding their time until the moment to strike is right. Like the story of the Knights of the Round Table, the Ronin's deeds became legendary, iconic examples of courage, cunning and loyalty in an age when the Samurai were true heroes and honor was something worth dying for. John Allyn's vivid retelling, with a foreword by scholar and film advisor, Stephen Turnbull, presents this epic of Japanese literature in its...

Autor: Marc Shapiro

Número de Páginas: 128

Talented actor. Charismatic celebrity. Woman magnet. Author. A free thinker and an independent soul. That’s the shorthand when it comes to the worldwide perception of Keanu Reeves. But there’s more to the real Keanu than pop culture talking points and, in Keanu Reeves’ Excellent Adventure: An Unauthorized Biography by New York Times bestselling author Marc Shapiro, the star of Speed, John Wick, Point Break and countless big and small films proves to be a lot more contrary and anti-establishment than most Hollywood cookie cutter celebrities. Equal parts biography and character study, Keanu Reeves’ Excellent Adventure: An Unauthorized Biography is an ink blot/rat in a maze journey as the actor deals with his life and times in straightforward, often philosophical and spiritual manner. He can be shy, self -effacing, an introvert and somebody who has been a pain in the side of the Hollywood establishment. He’s also found time to be an all around good guy as he deals with life’s ups and downs. But at the end of the day, Keanu Reeves is nothing less than human. He’s dealt with the deaths of those he’s loved the most. He makes no bones about the fact that he comes from a...

The Japanese Period Film

The Japanese Period Film

Autor: S.a. Thornton

Número de Páginas: 265

This study examines the history of the Japanese period film and proposes that a powerful relationship exists between the past and present in Japan's narrative tradition. The first section of the book analyzes the form and function of the Japanese period film, describing the unique iconography and characteristics of films set in the past. The author also examines how the period film has allowed Japanese filmmakers to circumvent government censorship by serving as a rhetorical device with which they can explore contemporary concerns through a criticism of the past. The final section of the book contains chapters that focus on the narrative in Japanese epic, religion, theater, and modern popular literature. A complete filmography and bibliography are included.

Autor: Martín Caparrós

Número de Páginas: 398

Observaciones, pensamientos e ideas a propósito de los números, desde el 00 al 99. Sucesos históricos, supersticiones, la actualidad, la política, el mundo. Originalmente publicados en forma semanal en las revistas Veintidós y Veintitrés. Al principio fue un desafío: « Ahora que cumplimos 69 números, a que no te atrevés a escribir una columna sobre el número 69», le dijo el editor de Veintitrés, la revista donde entonces escribía. Caparrós lo hizo, por supuesto, y después pensó que por qué no el 70 y el 71 y el 72 y así de seguido, hasta llenar el álbum de las cifras de dos dígitos. Escritos al calor del nuevo milenio, los cien ensayos breves de este libro terminan siendo tan imprevisibles como un dado lanzado al azar. Del 00 al 99, esta especie de cábala de temas urgentes, argentinos o mundiales, políticos, sociales, filosóficos es quizás el libro más original de Martín Caparrós, el que lo elevó a la categoría de gran contador de historias. Críticas: «Caparrós construye una serie heterogénea en temas y saberes, y halla en su plan numérico tanto la sujeción que las reminiscencias insalvables de algunas cifras le imponen como la libertad para...

Whitewashing the Movies

Whitewashing the Movies

Autor: David C Oh

Número de Páginas: 144

Whitewashing the Movies addresses the popular practice of excluding Asian actors from playing Asian characters in film. Media activists and critics have denounced contemporary decisions to cast White actors to play Asians and Asian Americans in movies such as Ghost in the Shell and Aloha. The purpose of this book is to apply the concept of “whitewashing” in stories that privilege White identities at the expense of Asian/American stories and characters. To understand whitewashing across various contexts, the book analyzes films produced in Hollywood, Asian American independent production, and US-China co-productions. Through the analysis, the book examines the ways in which whitewashing matters in the project of Whiteness and White racial hegemony. The book contributes to contemporary understanding of mediated representations of race by theorizing whitewashing, contributing to studies of Whiteness in media studies, and producing a counter-imagination of Asian/American representation in Asian-centered stories.

Bajo los cerezos en flor. 50 películas para conocer Japón

Autor: Carolina Plou Anadón

Número de Páginas: 224

El País del Sol Naciente ha ejercido un poder seductor sobre Occidente. Desde hace más de cuatrocientos años, se han sucedido encuentros y desencuentros, pero siempre caracterizados por un halo de fascinación, en ocasiones casi hipnótica. Sin embargo, muchas veces esta fascinación ha propiciado la aparición de tópicos que han dificultado el entendimiento de la cultura japonesa. Así, dentro del imaginario colectivo, Japón ha quedado reducido a geishas, samuráis y pagodas. Pero Japón es mucho más. Es una cultura compleja, que esconde mucho más de lo que se percibe a simple vista, y que hay que saber mirar. La singularidad de Japón ha quedado reflejada a través de las cincuenta películas que presentamos, que no son otra cosa más que una selección de títulos que recomponen, muy sucintamente, la historia de un país, de una cultura y de una cinematografía.

Explaining Evil

Explaining Evil

Autor: J. Harold Ellens

Número de Páginas: 1046

In this three-volume set, international scholars from across a broad spectrum of scholarly fields examine the concept of evil throughout history and world cultures from religious, scientific, psychological, and political perspectives. The manifestation of evil has provided a convenient theme for popular culture entertainment, ranging from the classic film The Exorcist, to almost all of Stephen King's horror novels, to video games such as Resident Evil. Unfortunately, dealing with—and attempting to overcome—the forces of evil is a pervasive problem in the real world as well. Explaining Evil addresses incidents of evil from ancient times to modern day around the globe. Concepts of evil within the big three religions—Christianity, Judaism, and Islam—are examined, as well as in Chinese philosophy and Native American beliefs. The political or national expressions of evil are explored, such as the "axis of evil" that culminated in World War II. These volumes identify the causes and effects of evil, and suggest possible remedies to humanity's inescapable flaw.
