A new online video essay on BRIEF ENCOUNTER (David Lean, 1945), which forms an integral part of Catherine Grant’s contribution to The Videographic Essay: Criticism in Sound and Image, edited by Christian Keathley and Jason Mittell, forthcoming from CABOOSE BOOKS in 2016: https://www.caboosebooks.net/the-videographic-essay
Focusing on a number of videographic explorations of matters of film editing, including her study of the dissolves in David Lean’s 1945 Brief Encounter, Grant explores what such practical and audiovisual modes of research and presentation—ones which themselves evidently turn on editing—can add to the study of a feature that (with a number of key exceptions) has not received much sustained attention to date in written film scholarship. [Dissolves of Passion]

Well, 'tis the season to be jolly, and Film Studies For Free is indeed quite jolly as the holidays approach. It hasn't been an especially busy year, entry-wise, at this here blog. But it has certainly been a lucky, busy and bountiful one for its author's film-studies-related activities away from it (including at FSFF's Twitter and Facebook versions).

What customarily follows, to celebrate and give thanks for that fortune, are some links (including some choice ones not shared very much on any platform before) to openly accessible items of scholarly and critical interest.

FSFF hopes (as ever) to be back here with an update very, very soon. But in the meantime, it would like to wish its faithful, patient and much appreciated readers very happy holidays if they are having them, and to send its warmest seasonal greetings to all!

Premissed as the book is on the assumption that great films 'think' their own conditions of possibility, the video essay gives a meta-cinematic dimension to a filmmaker's apparently personal themes and private obsessions.

Dario interviews British film Director Mark Herman about his career including the films Brassed off (1996), Little Voice (1998) and The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (2008).
              Episode 5: Bronson (with Dr. Johnny Walker) http://www.cinematologists.com/podcastarchive/2015/5/2/episode-5-bronson Neil questions Dario about his article on Nicolas Winding Refn’s powerful Bronson(2008) - entitled Punishing Bodies: British Prison Film and the Spectacle of Masculinity - which analyses the prison as an aesthetic space and suggests the (de)constructions of masculinity made possible by the prison genre.

Neil and Dario touch upon the tropes of hard v soft sci-fi, artificial intelligence, the fear of technology, metaphors of alien invasion and control of reproduction, along with many other of the fundamental elements of the genre.
               
              Episode 8: Sci-fi Special Part 2 (Pacific Rim) http://www.cinematologists.com/podcastarchive/2015/6/26/episode-8-sci-fi-special-part-2-pacific-rim In what promises to be a no-holes-barred, apocalyptic battle of the ages Neil and Dario face off in a cerebral clash of wills over a film that represents the most overt disagreement: Pacific Rim (2013). Don't miss episode 2 of the sci-fi double bill.
               Episode 9a: Point Blank (Port Eliot Special) http://www.cinematologists.com/podcastarchive/2015/8/21/episode-9a Dario is on Holiday so Neil is joined by filmmaker and academic Mark Jenkin to present and discuss John Boorman's 1967 classic Point Blank starring Lee Marvin. Point Blank was released in a zeitgeist year for crime cinema that also included Arthur Penn's Bonnie & Clyde, Jean-Pierre Melville's Le Samourai and Seijun Suzuki's Branded To Kill and it stands equal to those illustrious peers. This episode also features an interview with writer Tom Shone about his latest book Woody Allen: A Retrospective.

              Episode 10: 12 Angry Men http://www.cinematologists.com/podcastarchive/2015/9/26/episode-10-12-angry-men Season 2 of the podcast kicks off with a bumper freshers edition featuring a screening of Sydney Lumet's 1957 social drama 12 Angry Men. A heavyweight cast of character actors led by Henry Fonda argue over the evidence of what appears to be straightforward guilty verdict. Neil and guest presenter Kingsley Marshall introduce what is a canonical film studies text. Dario and Neil also discuss their experiences of studying film and hopefully offer some helpful guidelines to those who are coming into university to study what is a changing discipline.
               Episode 11: Tony Manero (with Prof. Will Brooker) http://www.cinematologists.com/podcastarchive/2015/10/4/episode-10-tony-manero Our intense desire for, and identification, with film characters and stars comes under the spotlight in this weeks' podcast. Neil is joined by filmmaker James Dean to introduce Pablo Larraín's unique and brutal Tony Manero (2008) about Chilean criminal who is obsessed with John Travolta's character from Saturday Night Fever. It is simultaneously bleak, shocking and unsettling with allusions to the darkest parts of human identity. Also on the podcast Dario interviews Professor Will Brooker from Kingston University about the year he is spending embodying the iconic David Bowie.
               Episode 12: Planes, Trains and Automobiles (with Jeanie Finlay) http://www.cinematologists.com/podcastarchive/2015/10/25/episode-12-planes-trains-and-automobiles Neil is joined on stage at Falmouth by Kingsley Marshall to introduce John Hughes' comedy Planes, Trains and Automobiles(1987). The influence and persona of John Candy and Steve Martin is discussed along with the career of John Hughes as one the quintessential American 80s directors. The podcast also features an interview with Jeanie Finlay on her surprising and offbeat musical documentary Orion: The Man Who Would Be King (2015).
               Episode 13: Dead of Night (with Jez Connolly) http://www.cinematologists.com/podcastarchive/2015/10/29/episode-13-dead-of-night The Cinematologists go on the road again, this time to the University of Bristol, to screen the Ealing produced British anthology horror Dead of Night (1945). Dario and Neil discuss the film with Jez Conolly who has co-authored a book on the film with David Owain Bates as part of Auteur’s ‘Devil’s Advocates’ series. Also discussed on the podcast is the new book by friend of The Cinematologists, Dr. Johnny Walker. Contemporary British Horror Cinema is out now from Edinburgh University Press.  
              Episode 14: Seconds (with journalist Andy Bass) http://www.cinematologists.com/podcastarchive/2015/11/1/18p6jz74rsjn3od3azafzzkznn0fvo In our first podcast from the University of Brighton's Hastings campus we screen the strangely superb sci-fi thriller Seconds (1966). John Frankenheimer's key themes revolve around paranoia and conspiracy with titles to his credit including The Manchurian Candidate (1962) and Seven Days in May (1964). This film takes a faustian theme and links it to social contexts of mistrust in government, consumerism and the increasing loss of identity in the modern age. The episode also features an interview with writer and historian Andy Bass who has recently written an article on the shooting of the film in his home town of Scarsdale:

               In one of the highlights of the year The Cinematologists screen Wong Kar-Wai's stylish masterpiece as part of the BFI 'love' season in association with The Poly, Falmouth. A veritable modern masterpiece In the Mood for Love stars Tony Leung and Maggie Cheung in iconic roles as lovers seeking refuge from disappointment, loneliness and the harsh realities of their surroundings. Dario and Neil also discuss their cinematic highlights of the year. The Guardian article by Peter Walker referred to in the podcast can be found here: http://www.theguardian.com/film/filmblog/2011/dec/19/in-the-mood-for-love
