This research regards the mystery on cinema, noting and questioning its typological statute; pointing out its relationship with the following typologies: whodunit, noir, and suspense thriller; and observing the building up of mystery on screenwriting. More specifically, we pose the question: which elements, noticeable since the script, contribute to the understanding of these films as mystery films? Therefore, our corpus comprises three screenplays: Rear Window (1953), Chinatown (1973) and Memento (1999). The screenplay’s analysis is supported somewhat by the work of Jule Selbo –– researcher and screenwriter who studies genre as a tool for writing feature-films ––, and also looks for noticing (A) which situations in these scripts alludes to the mystery universe and the genres related to it; (B) which are the emotional effects provoked on the spectator by the use of genres (C) how could the genres that crosses a script be related to the film’s relevance on its time? The concept of genre adopted comes mostly from Rick Altman, who understands the generic kind in historical perspective instead of seeing it as a fixed category. Altman’s semantic-syntactic approach makes possible the observation of elements that contribute to the analysis of the screenplays mentioned above, summing up to Selbo’s approach. The bibliography also contains names as Raphaëlle Moine, Thomas Schatz, David Bordwell, Edward Buscombe, Steave Neale –– authors that explore the genres in various directions. Beyond them, we found help on a diverse range of authors and researchers, who enriched the discussion. We believe that the relevance of this research is related to the few numbers of works in Brazil regarding the mystery’s statute, as well as to the scarce academic studies related to the practice of screenwriting
Esta pesquisa volta-se para o mistério no cinema, notando e questionando seu caráter tipológico; assinalando sua imbricação com as tipologias do whodunit, do noir e do thriller de suspense; e observando a construção do mistério na etapa de roteirização. Mais especificamente, pergunta-se: quais elementos, presentes desde a etapa do roteiro, contribuem para a apreensão desses filmes enquanto filmes de mistério? Para tanto temos um corpus composto por três roteiros fílmicos: Rear Window (Janela Indiscreta, 1953), Chinatown (Chinatown, 1973) e Memento (Amnésia, 1999). A análise dos roteiros apontados se fundamenta no trabalho de Jule Selbo –– pesquisadora e roteirista que estuda o gênero enquanto ferramenta para a escrita de roteiros longa-metragem –– e busca observar (A) quais situações nesses roteiros remetem, de forma mais imediata, ao universo do mistério e dos gêneros a ele relacionados; (B) quais as relações afetivas que são despertadas no espectador a partir dos gêneros; (C) de que forma os gêneros que perpassam tais roteiros relacionam-se à pertinência dos respectivos filmes na sua contemporaneidade. O conceito de gênero aqui adotado é o de Rick Altman, que entende as categorias genéricas em plano histórico e não como formas imutáveis. A abordagem semântico-sintática do autor possibilita o apontamento de aspectos que contribuem para a observação dos roteiros em questão, complementando a abordagem de Selbo. Os referenciais teóricos da pesquisa também envolvem outros estudiosos como Raphaëlle Moine, Thomas Schatz, David Bordwell, Edward Buscombe, Steave Neale — autores que trabalham o gênero cinematográfico em suas diferentes dimensões. Além disso, encontramos respaldo em importantes nomes da história do cinema. Acreditamos que a relevância da pesquisa liga-se à escassez, na universidade brasileira, de trabalhos relacionados ao estatuto do mistério, bem como à raridade de estudos teóricos que se relacionem à prática de roteirização

Full textEsta pesquisa propõe uma reflexão sobre como a dimensão tecnológica na prática dos Microrroteiros da Cidade se constitui como fator fundamental de seus processos de co-construção e mediação de circulações, dinâmicas e possibilidades de desdobramento. Criado em 2009 pela artista e roteirista paulistana Laura Guimarães, o projeto consiste em pequenas intenções de roteiro que convidam à visualização de histórias e situações vivenciadas por pessoas que transitam e/ou habitam a cidade de São Paulo. A linguagem utilizada nos textos dos microrroteiros é, ao mesmo tempo, uma relativização do roteiro de cinema e do código técnico de escritura do Twitter – uma plataforma de microblogging que prioriza o compartilhamento por meio de mensagens curtas de até 140 caracteres. Por meio de levantamento fotográfico, entrevista e coleta de dados, realizamos um mapeamento dos trânsitos dessas dinâmicas e, posteriormente, desenvolvemos uma análise das opções tipográficas, dos variados suportes, composições e das conexões entre diferentes espaços geográficos identificados. A fundamentação da pesquisa é realizada a partir da Teoria Crítica da Tecnologia de Andrew Feenberg e da leitura do autor sobre as considerações de Herbert Marcuse em relação à tecnologia e a arte. Refletimos também a respeito de deslocamentos de processos artísticos e comunicacionais desencadeados a partir da década de 1960 por um viés teórico latino-americano, sustentado por Néstor García-Canclini e Jesús Martín-Barbero, no intuito de analisarmos como a prática dos Microrroteiros da Cidade e suas dimensões técnico-estéticas se constituem nas dinâmicas das redes sociais e dos códigos urbanos em que se localiza. Desse modo, compreendemos as hibridações de linguagens expressas nessa prática artística como deslocamentos que ocorrem não de modo linear, mas de maneira cruzada e simultânea, borrando fronteiras de autoria e de fruição passiva, possibilitando outras construções de visualidades, coletivos e randômicos, mediando processos de ressignificação e reapropriação da cidade.
This research proposes a reflection about how the technological dimension in the practice of Microrroteiros da Cidade constitutes a fundamental factor of its co-construction and mediation processes of circulation, dynamics and deployment possibilities. Microrroteiros’s project was created in 2009 by the artist and screenwriter Laura Guimarães. Its approach involves small script intentions that invites São Paulo’s population to imagine and visualize scenes that happen in the city. The language used in microrroteiros texts is, at the same time, a relativization of screenplay and Twitter’s technical code – a microblogging plataform that priorizes the share of 140 character messages. Through photographic survey, interview and collection of data, we made a transit mapping of this dynamics and, after that, we developed an analysis of the typographic options, the various media, compositions and connections between different geographic areas identified. The theoretical foundation of this research is based on Andrew Feenberg’s Critical Theory of Technology, and on considerations that this author does about Herbert Marcuse’s theorical position on technology and art. Supported by Néstor García-Canclini and Jesús Martín-Barbero, we observe some shifts of artistic and communication processes triggered from the 1960s by a Latin American theoretical bias, in order to analyze how the practice of Microrroteiros da Cidade and their technical and aesthetic dimensions are constitutive in the dynamics of social media and urban codes in which it is located. Thus, we understand the hybridizations of this artistic practice as displacements that occur in a nonlinear way, but crossed and simultaneous, blurring boundaries of autorship and enabling other visual, collective and random constructions, mediating processes of reinterpretation and reappropriation of the city.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis examines the development of film criticism in Cape Town's daily press from 1928 to 1930, using film reviews from the newspapers the Cape Times and Die Burger as sources. The study starts with an overview of studies concerning early South African film history, and characterizes it as a rather underdeveloped field of study. The character of film criticism in the period under discussion is explained by using a description of the general function of film criticism as a basis and taking film criticism in the Weimar Republic of Germany as an example for the following comparison. The basis for the comparative analysis is a list of films screened in three selected cinemas in Cape Town from 1928 to 1930. Part of the analysis is an empirical study to examine the quantitative development of film reviews in the period under discussion. Length ranges with which to characterize film reviews are defined and the preferred average lengths of reviews for both newspapers as well as for films screened at the particular cinemas are listed. The qualitative part of the study is a content analysis of two selected groups of films: 1. films which received average-size reviews and 2. films which ran longer than average and received above-average size reviews. The survey reveals that the Cape Times followed a "quantitative strategy", reviewing all films screened and that Die Burger had a "qualitative The reviews strategy", in both reviewing specially selected films only. newspapers can be characterized as functionalistic. The Cape Times displayed their business orientation by publishing mostly advertisement-like reviews; Die Burger's political orientation was reflected in comments about the language in sound films, including film and cinema into the language struggle. The study demonstrates that newspapers are a valuable source for research concerning early South African film history. The existing standard reference, Thelma Gutsche's The History and Social ,Significance of Motion Pictures in South Africa 1895-1940 can be fruitfully complemented by using Afrikaans newspapers, as well as the writings of the Afrikaner film critic Hans Rompel.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie tesis ondersoek die ontwikkeling van rolprentresensies in die pers van Kaapstad in die jare 1928 tot 1930 en gebruik daarvoor resensies van die nuuskoerante Cape Times en Die Burger. Die ondersoek begin met 'n oorsig van die vroeë Suid Afrikaanse rolprentgeskiedenis. Die karakter van rolprentresensie in die gegewe periode word verduidelik deur 'n beskrywing van die algemene funksie om rolprentresensie as "n basis te gebruik en rolprentresensies in die Duitse Weimar Republiek as 'n voorbeeld vir die opvolgende vergelyking te neem. Die basis vir die vergelykende analise is 'n lys van rolprente wat in drie geselekteerde bioskope in Kaapstad gedurende die periode van 1928 tot 1930 gewys is. 'n Gedeelte van die analise behels 'n empiriese studie om die kwantitatiewe ontwikkeling van rolprentrensensies gedurende die gegewe periode te ondersoek. Lengte reekse word gedefinieer om die resensies te karakteriseer, en die verkose gemiddelde lengtes van resensies word gelys vir beide nuuskoerante as ook vir films wat by die geselekeerde cinemas gewys is. Die kwalitatiewe gedeelte van die studie is 'n inhoudanalise van twee geselekteerde groepe van rolprente: 1. rolprente wat resensies van gemiddelde lengte ontvang het en 2. rolprente wat langer as gemiddeld gewys is en resensies van bo-gemiddelde lengte ontvang het. Die ondersoek wys uit dat die Cape Times 'n "kwantitatiewe strategie" gevolg het deur alle rolprente te resenseer, terwyl die Die Burger 'n "kwalitatiewe strategie" gevolg het deur net gekeurde rolprente te resenseer. Die resensies in albei nuuskoerante kan as funkionalisties beskryf word. Die Cape Times lig sy besigheidsgeorienteerde houding uit, deur grotendeels advertensie-gelyke resensies te skryf; Die Burger demonstreer sy politiese orientering deur kommentaar oor die taalgebruik in klankrolprente te lewer en sluit so rolprente en bioskope in die taalstryd in. Die studie demonstreer dat koerante 'n waardevolle inligtingsbron vir navorsing oor die vroeë Suid Afrikaanse rolprentgeskiedenis lewer. Die bestaande standaardverwysing, Thelma Gutsche se The History and Social Significance of Motion Pictures in South Africa 1895-1940 kan suksesvol gekomplimenteer word deur gebruik te maak van Afrikaanse koerante, as ook van die tekste van die Afrikaanse filmkritikus, Hans Rompel.
