Book Synopsis Of Elephants and Toothaches by : Eva Badowska
Download or read book Of Elephants and Toothaches written by Eva Badowska and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2016-06-15 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection is the first to offer a genuinely interdisciplinary approach to Krzysztof Kieślowski’s Decalogue, a ten-film cycle of modern tales that touch on the ethical dilemmas of the Ten Commandments. The cycle’s deft handling of moral ambiguity and inventive technique established Kieślowski as a major international director. Kieślowski once said, “Both the deep believer and the habitual skeptic experience toothaches in exactly the same way.” Of Elephants and Toothaches takes seriously the range of thought, from theological to skeptical, condensed in the cycle’s quite human tales. Bringing together scholars of film, philosophy, literature, and several religions, the volume ranges from individual responsibility, to religion in modernity, to familial bonds, to human desire and material greed. It explores Kieślowski’s cycle as it relentlessly solicits an ethical response that stimulates both inner disquiet and interpersonal dialogue.

Download or read book The Films of Krzysztof Kieslowski written by Joseph Kickasola and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2004-06-22 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps the greatest European director of the last 30 years, Krzsztof Kieslowski created a remarkable body of work in a relatively short period of time. His films are loved around the world for their dramatic power and consummate artistry. Kieslowski's cinematic style stands apart in several important respects: his mastery of abstract imagery, his innovative use of sound and his deliberate circumvention of standard cinematic codes. Unlike many other "art" directors - who often fail to rise above commentary on the medium itself - Kieslowski uses these stylistic liberties to explore his philosophical concerns: fate, God, suffering, and love. Through close analysis of films like The Decalogue, The Double Life of Veronique, Blue, White and Red, Joe Kickasola identifies the unique qualities, and artistic legacy, of this great director.

Book Synopsis Krzysztof Kieslowski by : Renata Bernard
Download or read book Krzysztof Kieslowski written by Renata Bernard and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2016-03-14 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Krzysztof Kieslowski’s untimely death came at the height of his career, after his Three Colors trilogy of films garnered international acclaim (and an Oscar nomination), and he had been proclaimed Europe’s most important filmmaker by many critics. Born in 1941, he was only fifty-four years old when he died. Kieslowski himself tried to tell the story of his life and career in the 1993 book Kieslowski on Kieslowski. This collection, by contrast, reveals the shifting voice of a filmmaker who was initially optimistic about his social and cultural role, then felt himself buffeted by the turbulent politics and events of the People’s Republic of Poland. As described in the chronology in this book, he found himself subject to the “economic censorship” of post-Communist filmmaking. How Kieslowski responded at each moment of his life, what he tried to achieve with each of his films, is finely detailed in thirty-five selections. These pieces bring together his thesis from the famous Lodz film school, a manifesto written just before the dark days of martial law in Poland, diary entries from the first time he was working outside Poland, and numerous rare interviews from Polish-, French-, and English-language sources.

Book excerpt: "In 1980, Polish film director, Krzysztof Kieslowski created a drama series for television called Dekalog. These were ten one-hour films which took their inspiration from one each of the Ten Commandments, exploring, in turn, some moral issue in a modern setting. The locale in this particular case was an apartment block in Poland. The Decalogue, by Dornauf, is a series of short stories which does something similar, but each commandment and its ethical imperatives are set in one or other of the decades of the twentieth century"--Back cover,

Excerpt: Three Colors: Red (French: , Polish: ) is a 1994 film co-written, produced, and directed by Polish filmmaker Krzysztof Kie lowski. It is the final film of The Three Colors Trilogy, which examines the French Revolutionary ideals; it is preceded by Blue and White. Kie lowski had announced that this would be his final film, which proved true with the director's sudden death in 1996. Red is about fraternity, which it examines by showing characters whose lives gradually become closely interconnected, with bonds forming between two characters who appear to have little in common. The film begins with clips that track a telephone call between London and Geneva, where a university student and part-time model, Valentine Dusot (Irene Jacob), is talking to her emotionally infantile but possessive boyfriend. During her work as a model she poses for a chewing-gum campaign, during the photo shoot the photographer asks her to look very sad. While walking back home Auguste, a neighbour of Valentine's, drops a set of books and he notices that a particular chapter of the Criminal Code was open at random and he concentrates on that passage. While driving back to her apartment Valentine is distracted by adjusting the radio which is emitting a strange signal, accidentally runs over a dog. She tracks down the owner, a reclusive retired judge, Joseph Kern...
Book Synopsis The Autobiographical Documentary in America by : Jim Lane
Download or read book The Autobiographical Documentary in America written by Jim Lane and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2002-04-29 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the late 1960s, American film and video makers of all genres have been fascinated with themes of self and identity. Though the documentary form is most often used to capture the lives of others, Jim Lane turns his lens on those media makers who document their own lives and identities. He looks at the ways in which autobiographical documentaries—including Roger and Me, Sherman’s March, and Silverlake Life—raise weighty questions about American cultural life. What is the role of women in society? What does it mean to die from AIDS? How do race and class play out in our personal lives? What does it mean to be a member of a family? Examining the history, diversity, and theoretical underpinnings of this increasingly popular documentary form, Lane tracks a fundamental transformation of notions of both autobiography and documentary.
