Description de l'ouvrage :
Critics regularly use the term "provocateur" to describe controversial film directors. Although most individuals who attract this term are men, there is a long and largely unexamined history of female auteurs who shock and unsettle their viewers. Provocation in Women’s Filmmaking: Authorship and Art Cinema investigates how women directors participate in the tradition of provocative art cinema. Focusing on the post-millennium films of auteurs such as Lisa Aschan, Catherine Breillat, Jennifer Kent, Isabella Eklöf, Lucile Hadžihalilović, Claire Denis, Anna Biller and Athina Rachel Tsangari, this book considers the aesthetics and strategies of women’s provocative filmmaking in contemporary cinema. Challenging the gendering of provocation as a hyper-masculine mode of authorship, the book uncovers an enticing and complex array of divisive works by women.
À propos de l'auteur :
Janice Loreck is Lecturer in Screen Studies at the University of Melbourne. She is co-editor of Screening Scarlett Johansson: Gender, Genre, Stardom (2019) and the author of Violent Women in Contemporary Cinema (2016).
Revue de Presse :
Through incisive studies of Lucile Hadžihalilović, Claire Denis and Jennifer Kent, amongst others, Loreck demonstrates that women filmmakers are responsible for the most provocative, transgressive and affective art cinema in the twenty-first century. A must-read for those interested in women filmmakers, art cinema, and the gendering of film authorship.
-- Alison Peirse, University of Leeds
Loreck has done a fantastic job of considering women’s cinematic provocation from many worthwhile angles, and the depth and care with which she reads her chosen works garners significant insight. -- Tiia Kelly ― Senses Of Cinema
