Abstract:

The aim of this study is to demonstrate that 1930s French poetic realist cinema is characterised by a highly readable set design. It is a decor imbued with meaning - not a silent shell, standing detached from the action but rather the amplifier of narrative concerns. The thesis develops the claim that the decor is freighted with a powerful dramaturgical and symbolic charge, whereby the figural dimensions of everyday decor fragments anthropomorphise into powerful signifying elements. Stylised studio-bound spatial configurations define the film's visual ambience, enhance its emotional dimensions

Abstract:

This thesis comprises a study of the inscription of father, son, and daughter figures in French films of the 1930s and of the Occupation. Using the tool of Lacanian psychoanalytic theory, Part One looks at the inscription of patriarchy and the positions allotted within it to mature men, young men and young women in classic poetic-realist texts and run-of-the-mill productions of the 1930s, in order to identify the latent collective tensions in the society of that period. Part Two compares the inscription of father, son and daughter figures, together with certain stylistic features and themes, i

Abstract:

This thesis considers the role of spectacle in two modes of filmmaking in the French and American 'classical' cinemas of the 1930s. I examine the relationship of spectacle to the emotions and drama of musical films, and to the 'history-telling' of biopics, war films and other genres of historical cinema. One reason for the comparison is the hegemonic position of classical Hollywood cinema in film scholarship. Although I am respectful of the insights offered by the concept of a 'classical' cinema, a more central motivation for this study is the failure of much criticism to account for the relat

Abstract:

This thesis showcases the work of four costume designers working within the genre of costume drama during the 1950s in France, namely Georges Annenkov, Rosine Delamare, Marcel Escoffier, and Antoine Mayo. In unstitching the cinematic wardrobes of these four designers, the ideological impact of the costumes that underpin this prolific yet undervalued genre are explored. Each designer’s costume is undressed through the identification of and subsequent methodological focus on their signature garment and/or design trademark. Thus the sartorial and cinematic significance of the corset, the crinolin

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to analyse the configuration of gender in Giscardian France (1974-1981), as it is represented through the life and work of Patrick Dewaere. To this end, this thesis has the following three correspondent aims: first, to document and analyse the socio-political and historical contexts that influenced the configuration of gender during this period. Second, to position Dewaere in relation to the broader context of 1970s French cinema primarily in the form of contemporary stars with whom he worked – and the filmic representation of gender during this period. Third, to map

Abstract:

This thesis explores the links between ideology, stardom, nationality and the everyday. It argues that as France underwent rapid economic expansion and technical modernisation in the 1950s, everyday life was subsequently rendered `unfamiliar' whilst simultaneously retaining its banal quotidian nature or `familiarity' - i.e. it became `uncanny'. It thus became an object of intense critical inquiry and there was also a resulting object-fetishisation within mass culture. The introductory chapter argues that in a climate of urbanisation, a new `leisure' culture and the explosion of the mass media

Abstract:

This thesis investigates the aesthetic presence of social performance in six French and Czechoslovak New Wave films of the 1960s. The New Wave was particularly interested in portraying everyday life, and the film corpus studied in this thesis focuses specifically on the representation of the characters' social lives. In addition, the films share the commonality of being made with an aesthetic of authenticity inspired more or less by the 1960s observational documentary genre of cinéma vérité. In the film corpus, ordinary social situations occupy a more prominent place on screen than usual, a

Abstract:

Bien que le terme « film noir » soit généralement réservé au cinéma hollywoodien, cette appellation a en réalité été forgée dans la France des années 1930 pour désigner des films français, et elle renvoie plutôt à une forme transnationale, circulant entre l’Europe et Hollywood. C’est à ce titre que l’on se propose de l’étudier dans le cinéma hexagonal, en montrant que le genre noir s’inscrit en France dans le cadre d’une tradition ancienne, et en analysant l’évolution du « film noir français » après-guerre, selon une approche historique et culturelle. En postulant que le film noir est indissoc
