Résumé

récupéré en direct d'OpenAlex

Out-of-synch audio, incongruous lines of sight and awkward match-on-action editing undermine the structuring melodramatic narrative of Guy Maddin's cinema. Dialogue is rerecorded in every picture, Vaseline is smeared on the camera lens for distortion, and Maddin regularly utilizes-or replicates the effect of-Super 8 and two-strip Technicolor film stock. At once imbuing a singular emotional sincerity and narrative propulsion in his films, Maddin freely appropriates iconic images and plot devices of classic cinema, parading their dated sexual politics and social mores. Maddin constructs a film history canon uniquely his own, cut and pasted from the exemplar films of German Expressionism, Russian Constructivism, early American melodrama, and the avant-garde. In his 1992 picture Careful1 the result is a self-conscious amalgamation of incomplete early cinema references, self-conscious Freudian symbolism, and postmodern irony that implicates our cognitive experience of cinematic illusion in its revisionist critique. Maddin began making films in the late 1980s, but none of his narratives take place after 1930. While utilizing actual events as points of departure, such as the smallpox epidemic of 1900 in the Icelandic community of Gimli, Manitoba (Tales from the Gimli Hospital),2 or the post-World War One collective amnesia of Archangel, Russia (Archangel)? Maddin manipulates the conventions of naturalist-realist narrative development and abandons accurate documentation of the historical event for a playful dissection of audiences' suspension of belief. In recent works, Maddin's application of digital technology heightens the immersive qualities of his worlds while continually reminding the viewer of its artificiality, of his directorial hand. Maddin states, I want [the audience] to be aware they're watching a movie, I'm not trying to hide that fact ... Everything is artificial in the world of ... film and melodrama.4 He does not simply acknowledge but fully celebrates their artifice, disrupting nearly every established tool used to garner investment in the naturalist-realist, melodramatic, and romantic structures of his inspirations. Maddin fills in the gaps of his incomplete recollection with referents outside of history, creating a nostalgia for a past that does not exist. Using contemporary tinting processes, digital video, and nonlinear editing in combination with 35mm, 16mm, and Super 8 film formats, he remakes a past borne by the future. Maddin simultaneously builds a baroque diegesis and dismantles it through incomplete revisionist homage, infusing a Freudian narrative vocabulary with contrived historical hyperreality. He effectively occupies multiple levels of what Jean Baudrillard calls the precession of simulacra, mirroring a subjective and fractional film canon, while conflating the illusion inherent of all cinema. In Simulacra and Simulation, Baudrillard writes, Illusion is no longer possible, because the real is no longer possible ... All ... energy of representation [has] vanished in a hallucinatory resemblance ... of the real to itself.5 History and illusion implode. Reality is signified only by perverse simulation. Maddin extrapolates the hyperreal echo chamber into an allinclusive project in which every vestige of its signification points to its unraveling, on every level of representation. Careful was Maddin's first color film. In it we are introduced to Tolzbad, a fictitious 19th-century Alpine town where oedipal drives and sibling rivalry plague the inhabitants, compounded by perpetual fear of impending avalanches. seemingly dazed by the over-saturation of their own images, they stumble through a world of both baroque artifice and the strictest code of whispered repression and self-restraint. At home in their fabricated surroundings and utterly out of time and place, they are lost in mismatched thoughts and desires. The deadpan reading by the actors, Maddin's wooden script, the contrived sets, and dustaccented soundtrack, create an ironic distance between the viewer and the film. …
