Section c – exam advice
This document provides exam advice and discusses key topics to analyze for the film Vertigo. It recommends doing either the Critical Review/Writing question or the Specific question as they are easier than the Critical Approaches question. For Vertigo, some of the main debates that could be analyzed are how it is a film about film through identification and obsession, its portrayal of the gendered look and female object, use of recurring motifs and symbols, and interpretation of the Madeleine and Judy characters. It also lists debates around the spectator relationship to the character Scottie, use of locations, success as a thriller, problems from a narrative realist perspective, its undisputed status, and critical reception.
Section c – exam advice
This document provides exam advice and discusses key topics related to analyzing the film Vertigo using different film theory approaches. It recommends doing the critical review/writing question first as it is easier than the critical approaches question.

For the Vertigo analysis, it outlines the major debates around interpreting the film's narrative, characters, symbolism, locations, genre, and critical reception.
Questions and answers
Documentaries claim to show reality but actually show a version of it from a certain point of view. There are three main modes of documentary: expository documentaries guide viewers through material using voiceovers, interviews and footage; interactive documentaries feature the filmmaker who actively engages with the material; and reflexive documentaries play with conventions and do not push a particular position, instead raising questions about objectivity and truth. Most documentaries contain elements of different modes and cannot be easily categorized.
Revision summer2014fm4
The document outlines a revision session plan for a 2 hour and 45 minute exam divided into three sections: World Cinema, Spectatorship Topics, and Close Critical Study. Section A focuses on contextual and textual questions about world cinema films. Section B requires applying ideas about spectatorship and readings to documentary films. Section C involves critically analyzing a single chosen film and demonstrating awareness of critical debates around the film. The revision plan provides sample questions and approaches for successfully answering different question types in each exam section.
Transformationscene
After Judy dyes her hair blonde, Scottie is still not satisfied because she has not styled her hair in the neat bun that Madeleine wore. He insists she put her hair up, demonstrating his desire to transform Judy into his idealized version of Madeleine. Judy allows herself to be controlled by Scottie in this way in order to gain his love. The scene illustrates Scottie's obsessive need to recreate Madeleine and Judy's willingness to become the object of his desires.
Racist ideology
Wikus is an unlikable character who is clumsy, cowardly, and patronizing towards his Black subordinates. However, he is earnest and eager to please, which makes him somewhat sympathetic. The film effectively depicts the aliens as disgusting creatures that embody racist stereotypes, treating them like cockroaches and depicting them as addicted to cat food. It also "others" Nigerians in a similarly disturbing way. By making the audience view the aliens through a racist lens, the film highlights how racist ideologies function to dehumanize and objectify others.
Successful lowbudgetfilms
While big budget Hollywood films are common, some low budget films have achieved great box office success. The Conjuring (2013) had a budget of $20 million and grossed $318 million worldwide. Saw (2004) was made for $1.2 million and grossed $103 million globally. Napoleon Dynamite (2004) had a tiny $400,000 budget but grossed $46 million. The Blair Witch Project (1999) cost only $60,000 to make and grossed $248 million worldwide.

The impact of digital technology on production
Digital technology has impacted film production, distribution, and exhibition in several ways. Films are easier and cheaper to make with smaller, lightweight digital cameras and editing software that allows for special effects. They can also be more easily distributed and promoted through online marketing campaigns and global releases of digital data files. While digital offers more viewing options on different screens and in 3D, it raises debates around piracy, image quality, and whether it helps or hurts independent films.
The influence of online fandom on film production
Fans actively engage with films they are passionate about by researching all aspects of production and sharing their thoughts, interpretations, and interviews with others online. Their predictable consumption habits allow corporations to target them through merchandise and marketing. The rise of the internet has given fans a global platform to immediately and freely express themselves, influencing film production, promotion, and distribution. Studios now directly engage fans through early screenings and social media to minimize risks and costs.
All doc qs
This document outlines potential exam questions for a film studies course focusing on documentaries and the spectator experience. The questions address how different types of documentaries provide varying spectator experiences, the importance of trusting the documentary filmmaker, how viewing context influences response, and whether spectators approach documentaries with more critical awareness than fiction films. Additional questions explore issues of manipulation in documentaries, the pleasures of viewing them, how real people/situations provide more challenge, and whether engaging spectators cinematically makes for the best documentaries.
Senna analysis
This document contains notes from viewings of the documentary film Senna (2010) directed by Asif Kapadia. It discusses the film's narrative structure, use of footage, and techniques for manipulating spectator responses. The notes analyze how the film tells the story of Brazilian race car driver Ayrton Senna in a way that is similar to a fiction film, with Senna as the protagonist and identifiable scenes of drama and action. Key questions examine the relationship between the spectator and screen, the effect of point-of-view filming, the impact of including an antagonist in the narrative, and how the use of archive footage and non-diegetic music shape emotional responses to Senna and the inevitable conclusion of his life.
4types
The document describes 6 modes of documentary filmmaking: expository, observational, interactive, reflexive, poetic, and performative. Expository documentaries use voiceovers and a straightforward structure to guide viewers, but can be overly didactic. Observational documentaries aim to record events objectively without influencing them, but may lack context. Interactive documentaries feature the filmmaker's engagement and perspective. Reflexive documentaries draw attention to documentary conventions. Poetic documentaries emphasize visuals and mood over explicit arguments. Performative documentaries construct subjective truths significant to the filmmaker.
Spectatorship explained
This document discusses spectatorship and how different spectators can have varying emotional responses to the same film due to their personal contexts. A spectator's response is dependent on their own experiences, knowledge, ideologies, and how they relate the film to their own memories. The document also presents different types of readings spectators can have, from preferring the intended meaning to having an oppositional reading that does not recognize the intended meanings.
Using key words in a sentence
The document discusses the themes in the film District 9, including the segregation and lack of assimilation of aliens who are forced to live in a dystopian area called District 9 under harsh conditions, with humans from the MNU corporation controlling and possessing power over the aliens. A theme of xenophobia and racial division exists as the comfortable lives of humans are contrasted with the aliens' struggle to survive in District 9.

The alien as ‘other’ in district 9
The aliens in District 9 are seen as repulsive scavengers forced into make-shift concentration camps where they live in squalid conditions without basic rights. As the film develops, the aliens are shown to be intelligent beings who care for their children and want to return home, representing racial divisions and functioning as an allegory for apartheid and segregated minorities. While physically distinct from humans, the aliens are ultimately victims who are "othered" and denied dignity through physical segregation and an inability to assimilate or leave Earth.

Article 3 the imposter -psychological journey
The documentary film The Imposter examines the bizarre true story of a French man who in 1994 impersonated a missing American teenager. Interviews with the director Bart Layton and producer Dimitri Doganis express their ongoing surprise and confusion over how the imposter, Frederic Bourdin, was able to convincingly convince the teenage boy's family in Texas that he was actually their missing nephew.
