Abstract:

The article studies the early silent cinema motif of disappearance or invisibility of bodies in a frame. In adventure and adventure-fantasy films, this motif performs a whole set of functions. Using the example of several films, I uncover its rich semantic potential. Further on, the mythological origins of the motif are analyzed, as are the role of theater, circus, attraction and fairy tale in the prehistory of the diegetic disappearing. Attention is paid to the aesthetics of the trick in Georges Méliès’ films, where the condition and location of the vanishing body remain uncertain. Narrative

As important as accuracy may be to nonfiction writers, few have taken such risks as Sy Montgomery in gathering information for her articles, books, and films.

Montgomery says, “I consider my books love stories and that is why I write them. I want to convey to both adults and kids the thrill of discovery. . . .

Microelectronics has benefited enormously from electrochemistry, particularly in metallization.

Electroless Co-based magnetic films deposited on non-magnetic electroless nickel films on rigid aluminum disks propelled the magnetic storage industry for years. A decade or more ago, it looked as if electroless Co(W)(P) was the ideal candidate to replace PVD Ta-based liners for CMOS back-end-of-line (BEOL) builds (2).

Abstract: In discussions of pre-COVID films seeming to anticipate the anxieties of quarantine, Luis Buñuel's Exterminating Angel is a frequent point of reference. The plight of characters desperately unable to break free of a home has obvious parallels, but related themes of isolation and entrapment play themselves out in varied ways across the filmmaker's fifty-year oeuvre. This article explores these themes in three of Buñuel's Mexican films, comparing the scenario of The Exterminating Angel to those of the lesser-known films, The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe (1952) and Simon of the Desert

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Why is nature filmmaking generally absent from histories and theorizations of cinema, and why do films like March of the Penguins receive such grudging attention from serious critics? By exploring ideological dimensions of two formative influences (Jean Painlevéé and the Disney True-Life Adventures), along with a recent National Geographic special on the Sonoran desert and the film Microcosmos, MacDonald demonstrates why nature film should be taken seriously.

Abstract:

There is a need for published film-score editions in film musicology, both to preserve the contents of manuscripts and to aid critical readings of films. How to accomplish this, without re-inscribing the Romantic conceptions of authorship commonly associated with edition creation, is the subject of this article. After considering the relevant editorial problems and models, a postmodern ‘anti-edition’ is proposed, using examples drawn from Korngold's score for The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938).

Abstract:

The author focuses on a series of short films about road workers, created in 1974–1980 by different directors of the Georgia Film studio based on the scripts by Rezo Gabriadze. Despite the light comedic structure, each of the films in the cycle correlates with traditional art forms and is a kind of a parable about the important work of three friends who continue the work of their great ancestors in an already built-up world. This comedy cycle turns to the aesthetic foundations of Georgian cinema, which allows drawing conclusions about transformations in cinema, the processes of irony over the

In an Australia where the old images of masculinity are no longer serviceable, the road provides an ideal site for films wishing to explore ways of being a man at the dawn of the twenty-first century. The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, True Love and Chaos, Doing Time for Patsy Cline and Kiss or Kill critique or destabilise traditional models of masculinity, and use the road as a space where masculinity is free to change. However, as Pamela Robertson (1997: 271) has pointed out, the road movie is ‘a genre obsessed with home’. The closure of all four films involves establishing a

While often unacknowledged, gags and gag comedy remain a vital part of Hollywood cinema. Following the runaway success of Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988), an increase in the production of films combining live-action and animation has helped them become a central venue for gag comedy. However, while live-action/animation hybrids can be enormously successful, they are also extremely difficult and risky ventures, both in terms of their technical challenges and production costs. Given this, what is the rationale behind combining live-action and animation for comedy at all? As the author argues, bot

Abstract:

Walt Disney Pictures has adapted several famous animated cartoons into live-action films in recent years, including Alice in Wonderland. The film is based on Lewis Carroll's classic novel, which tells the story of Alice's adventures in Wonderland. The adaptation process brought several changes in the form of the latest story. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method to investigate and examine the reimagination markers and reimagination functions from the animated film Alice in Wonderland (1951) to the live-action version (2010).

Resumen: La serie Blacksad, del guionista Juan Díaz Canales y el dibujante Juanjo Guarnido, ha cosechado un gran éxito internacional desde su aparición a finales del año 2000. La apuesta de los autores, ganadora a la postre, fue crear una historieta protagonizada por animales en un universo realista noir de los EE. UU. de los años 50 del pasado siglo. Si bien Blacksad nació de la admiración por las grandes novelas y películas de serie negra, la vinculación de los álbumes del gato detective con el cine va más allá, sin embargo, de esta relación directa.

Ethnography is a form of qualitative research to analyze and interpret a certain culture within an ethnic group. Ethnographic learning is important to understand 'culture-sharing'. Ethnography provides a detailed understanding of culture, language, arts, and more aspects. In Malaysia, the existence of various ethnic groups allows us to learn the ethnography of other ethnic. However, the understanding of different ethnic is still lacking. Moreover, a lack of understanding and respect for others could cause destruction and harmony in the country. This problem can be controlled by the existence o

An important role in learning a new language and the development of a language personality is played by acquaintance with the worldview of its native speakers and familiarization with their culture. Any language reflects the way of perception and conceptualization of the surrounding world by its native speakers. Purpose. This study aims to investigate the linguocultural aspect of language teaching based on the linguistic picture of the world presented in films, and to demonstrate the advantages of using film discourse for conveying national cultural values and concepts to students.

Abstract:

The comic series, the Adventures of Asterix created by René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo became exceptionally popular in Sri Lanka in the early 2000s when the local TV channel Sirasa broadcasted the animated films dubbed in Sinhala. The present paper focuses on one aspect that captivated the audience, the translation of the proper names from English into Sinhala. The translation of the anthroponyms in Asterix poses numerous complexities. Following Michel Ballard’s theoretical views on the translation of the proper names, we examine the decision of the translators to translate, the challenges and

Specifically, the article focuses on the ways in which the employment of doors in each of the films relates to these films' configurations of inside and outside as conceptual realms.

This essay examines the political meanings of John Ford and Dudley Nichols's film The Hurricane (1937). The Hurricane appears at a pivotal moment in American history, a moment when Ford and Nichols set out to make films for a “new kind of public.” This new audience was forged by new political forces, including the rise of the Congress of Industrial Organizations, the Popular Front, and Roosevelt's New Deal. Building on previous work that documents Nichols's affiliation with Popular Front organizations, and Ford's own political cinema (including The Informer (1935), The Grapes of Wrath (1940),
