POPULARITY
Nowadays we might cringe when we see movies like “Breakfast at Tiffany's”, but people back then didn't do so at all. On the contrary: the movie was, and it still is critically acclaimed and part of pop culture due to USA's cultural hegemony over the world. In this video essay I talk about colonialism in the film industry, propaganda, dehumanization, how important is the film industry for political hegemony, how certain marginalized groups are dehumanized in the film industry and why, Orientalism and how the movie Dune uses Orientalist tropes, and what to do next.

Eran Kaplan's book Projecting the Nation: History and Ideology on the Israeli Screen (Rutgers UP, 2020) is a wide-ranging history of over seven decades of Israeli cinema. The only book in English to offer this type of historical scope was Ella Shohat's Israeli Cinema: East West and the Politics of Representation from 1989. Since 1989, however, Israeli cinema and Israeli society have undergone some crucial transformations and, moreover, Shohat's book offered a single framework through which to judge Israeli cinema: a critique of orientalism. Projecting the Nation contends that Israeli cinema offers much richer historical and ideological perspectives that expose the complexity of the Israeli project. By analyzing Israeli films which address such issues as the Arab-Israeli conflict, the Ashkenazi-Mizrahi divide, the kibbutz and urban life, the rise of religion in Israeli public life and more, the book explores the way cinema has represented and also shaped our understanding of the history of modern Israel as it evolved from a collectivist society to a society where individualism and adherence to local identities is the dominant ideology.

The 1980s was the wild west of drug trials. And there was no bigger cocaine cowboy than Carlos Lehder, who co-founded the Medellin Cartel. Lehder turned to Edward Shohat to represent him in a 7-month trial in which the prosecutor, nicknamed Mad Dog, called 29 snitches. In this episode, the finale of Season 4, David Oscar Markus takes Ed through the sprawling trial and the crazy turn of events after the trial ends.
Olá! No vídeo de hoje a convidada Carolina Suriz, historiadora e mestranda em História pela UFRGS, segue a série de vídeos do Históriaflix! Nesta análise, escolheu abordar como o filme "A Múmia" (1999) constrói uma narrativa sobre o oriente. Assim, o conceito de orientalismo de Edward Said é fundamental para compreender essa análise fílmica. Ficou curioso/a? Assiste o vídeo! Referências Bibliográficas: - SAID, Edward W.
