Brechtian Cinemas: Montage and Theatricality in Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet, Peter Watkins, and Lars von Trier (Horizons of Cinema)

Nenad Jovanović

4.9/5 (33442 ratings)

Description:In Brechtian Cinemas, Nenad Jovanovic uses examples from select major filmmakers to delineate the variety of ways in which Bertolt Brecht s concept of epic/dialectic theatre has been adopted and deployed in international cinema. Jovanovic critically engages Brecht s ideas and their most influential interpretations in film studies, from apparatus theory in the 1970s to the presently dominant cognitivist approach. He then examines a broad body of films, including Brecht s own Mysteries of a Hairdressing Salon (1923) and Kuhle Wampe (1932), Jean-Marie Straub and Daniele Huillet s History Lessons (1972), Peter Watkins s La Commune (2000), and Lars von Trier s Nymphomaniac (2013). Jovanovic argues that the role of montage a principal source of artistic estrangement (Verfremdung) in earlier Brechtian films has diminished as a result of the technique s conventionalization by today s Hollywood and related industries. Operating as primary agents of Verfremdung in contemporary films inspired by Brecht s view of the world and the arts, Jovanovic claims, are conventions borrowed from the main medium of his expression, theatre. Drawing upon a vast number of sources and disciplines that include cultural, film, literature, and theatre studies, Brechtian Cinemas demonstrates a continued and broad relevance of Brecht for the practice and understanding of cinema."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
