In Weeks 1-2 of my Italian Cinema class on Desire and Resistance, I learned some of the different ways that Italian filmmakers have resisted dominant ways of making film through how they tell stories in a different way and offer a different kind of protagonist than I was used to. I also learned that a lot of the motivation behind Italian filmmakers was desire – whether that be sexual/romantic, being envious of something, wanting something that has been lost, or, especially, desiring an equal society. The first reading we did was called “Italian Cinema” by Wagstaff, where I learned a lot about the history of Italian cinema, but also a very suppressed history of Italy during World War 2 specifically. As someone who loves learning about multiple perspectives, especially relating to historical events, learning about resistance movements in Italy during a time when Nazi’s took over, and what effect that had on Italian cinema was very interesting to me. I then watched a film called “Cinema Paradiso” which honestly made me very emotional. My professor pointed out how in the lightning scene, a certain frame of thinking was enacted. It essentially let the spectator know that the film was going to be told from a subjective nature. While I recognized this subconsciously, it is the little things like that that I have learned to pick up on now when watching films. My favorite part of the film was when the once-little Toto watches all of the deleted scenes of people kissing from Salvatore’s collection that he passed onto him after dying. It was truly touching; I even got teary-eyed.
The Cinema: Where Everyone Went To Enjoy Films Together
Afterwards, I watched the Panopto recording provided by my professor where I learned about how films have the ability to make the spectator forget that they are even watching a film because of how immersed into the film’s reality it can make you. I completely related to this, I remember how, when watching the film “Call Me By Your Name” for the first time, it made me feel like I was in Italy again, and it also made me feel like I was also experiencing the love that the character’s shared.
Elio and Oliver Sharing An Intimate Moment in Public
Something I never really thought about was how feelings can be evoked through certain film techniques, and my professor challenged us to think about how films are put together to do so. Like, what in the construction of a horror movie makes us feel afraid? I always think about how strange it is that art has this effect on us – a simple object, whether that be a painting, sculpture, or a screen that has a film being projected on it can make us feel such real emotions and evoke very natural reactions. Learning about the different frame sizes coupled with the different types of shots was another thing I never thought of too much previously. The way that extreme long shots function to establish settings, long shots capture movements, medium shots document the happenings of things from the waist up, and close up shots function as a way to show intimacy or identification; there truly are so many components that go into film making. It really made me think about how when making YouTube videos, I use a lot of the same techniques subconsciously when filming. In a way, the purpose of these shots just make sense – now I don’t know if that’s due to me consuming so many films, or if it is something universal
