Description
Examines how silence is used in the work of four contemporary women directors: Joanna Hogg, Lynne Ramsay, Céline Sciamma, and Lucile Hadzhalilovic.
Silence is often uncomfortable. When we encounter it at the cinema, it can mean many different things. Sarah Artt uncovers how silence is used to express a multitude of emotions and situations by looking at silence in relation to the representation of women on screen at different stages in their lives: as children, adolescents, early and late adulthood. This book explores how silence can have different textures and meanings; it can be soothing, or oppressive. The various ways in which silence is used, whether the absence of dialogue, or the deliberate muting of the soundtrack, are covered here, looking at well-known movies such as: Morvern Callar, We Need to Talk about Kevin, and Evolution.EXTRA 10 % discount with code: EXTRA
