Abstract:
The new mainstream film is an upgraded version of the main theme film, which is more commercial, entertaining and popular. The themes are more extensive, and the casting is bolder and more grounded. Nowadays, the rise of new mainstream films also means that Chinese films have embarked on a new journey. A new type of film that combines artistry and commercialism skillfully has its unique advantages from both artistic and commercial perspectives.

Abstract:
With the popularity and rapid development of the Internet, online video has played a very important role in promoting film and television communication. On the basis of online video, the rise of the short video industry has also brought about a huge change in people's movie habits. The fragmented aesthetics of movies are increasingly prominent under the influence of digital technology. The effects stemming from market forces are particularly profound. Marketization requires film production to take into account the types of audiences and to take care of the audience's spiritual fragments, and t

Abstract:
This thesis works towards a revisionist structure of film and film theory in contemporary popular culture. Rather than taking the film text as a 'received object' of analysis, the aim is to foreground certain film texts and the ways of seeing that they demand. The films examined throughout this thesis are positioned as being not merely vehicles for driving theory. Rather, they stand as sites of investigation into the everyday aspects of cinema and popular culture.

Abstract:
This thesis approaches the contemporary horror film from a number of directions. Firstly, it is considered in relation to the historical roots of horror fiction, the tradition of the literary Gothic which stretches back as far as the late eighteenth century. The same chapter elaborates the broad outline of a methodology, drawing upon an established body of genre theory in both literary and film studies, which is then applied to the gradual diffusion of the Gothic legacy into the related genres of detective stories/thrillers, horror, and science-fiction, the inter-relatedness of these three gen

The political films that have emerged on the global film festival circuit since the 1990s mark a shift in cinematic strategies for critically addressing dominant, militant, or otherwise repressive ideologies. From a focus on the representation of oppression in films like The Battle of Algiers, films such as Timbuktu, Nobody Knows About Persian Cats and Chop Shop now contribute to the active formation of political characters and viewers, a form not fully realized until the 21st century due to shifts in information technologies and resulting political organization.

Abstract:
This dissertation concerns a group of young Chinese filmmakers, some of whom are referred to as the “Sixth Generation”, who have made films outside the state-run filmmaking system since the 1990s. Their strikingly innovative works have increasingly attracted attention both inside and outside China. In fact, this film practice, arising from new film aesthetics, has formed a new film genre: docu-realism, a term I coin to refer to the new genre in contemporary Chinese fiction film. This is a type of fiction film that for the most part employs documentary mechanisms and adopts documentary aestheti

This thesis discusses the intersection of subjectivity and the liminal in contemporary literary and filmic texts. In discussion of eight texts, the thesis weighs the dual meaning of “liminal subjectivities” – the liminal space between subjectivities, and the condition of subjectivity as it negotiates the liminal. It aims to explore how liminality manifests in manners both universal and specific to the literary or filmic form, in the embodiments of characters, and the rhythms and poetics of the text. It considers the liminal a privileged trope of destabilised subjectivity, a space of suspension

Bodily Sensation in Contemporary Extreme Horror Film provides a theory of horror film spectatorship rooted in the physiology of the viewer. In a novel contribution to the field of film studies research, it seeks to integrate contemporary scientific theories of mind with psychological paradigms of film interpretation. Proceeding from a connectionist model of brain function that proposes psychological processes are underpinned by neurology, this thesis contends that whilst conscious engagement with film often appears to be driven by psychosocial conditions – including cultural influence, gender

Abstract:
This thesis aims to dispute derogatory and disdainful attitudes towards contemporary Thai film, ones that follow a long history of viewing Thailand and Thai culture as inferior. Through conducting a case study of the popular horror genre I illustrate that New Thai cinema follows a hybrid film form that has resulted in such condescending interpretations. This is an amalgamation of an earlier post-war 'characteristically Thai' film style that is a product of the lower-class rural context and the globally dominant EuroAmerican 'Natural Language' of horror. Furthermore, I illustrate that while Tha

Taxes offer a blueprint, in both symbolic and concrete terms, for uncovering the most fundamental arrangements in society – stratification included. The historical retellings captured within these data highlight the politics of taxation in Alabama from 1856 to 1901, including conflicts over whom money is expended upon as well as struggles over who carries their fair share of the tax bur
