Tracing Past Exchanges between European and South American Cinematheques. A Key to Understanding the Impact of Sharing

Beatriz Tadeo Fuica

Iluminace 2019, 31(1):27-43 | DOI: 10.58193/ilu.1603  

The aim of this article is to contribute to uncovering and analyzing film exchanges between the French cinematheque and the cinematheques in Buenos Aires (Argentina) and Montevideo (Uruguay) in the aftermath of World War II. In addition to providing a brief history of the creation of the South American institutions, this article studies specific titles that travelled between these three countries. On the one hand, it explores how films that arrived from the south allowed for the recovery of titles thought to be lost and contributed to the programs of the French cinematheque. On the other hand, it examines how the selection that was sent from the north...

Alain Boillat, Frédéric Maire

In the autumn of 2009, the two Vaud institutions set a shared goal on the basis of a specific inventory of intensifying their collaboration by encouraging research on the vast collections, and, in that way, valorising them nationally and internationally. Currently seven research projects have already been financed...

Professional vs. Fan Cultural Criticism. Qualitative Analysis of Semantics and Normativity in Evaluation of Films

Pavel Zahrádka

Iluminace 2019, 31(1):5-23 | DOI: 10.58193/ilu.1601  

The article deals with the reconstruction and comparison of language games played by professional film critics and film fans evaluating film works. As part of this reconstruction, I focus on a pragmalinguistic analysis of semantics and normativity of evaluative judgments, which is methodically based on the analysis of relevant written reviews and semi-structured interviews with reviewers. My research shows that professional film critics and fans play essentially the same language game of the art lover, in which evaluative judgements rely on the speaker's personal taste. The most striking difference between the language games of both types of respondents...
