This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Diploma Thesis from the year 2002 in the subject Communications - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,0, University of Vienna (Human- und Sozialwissenschaften, Publizistik und Kommunikationswissenschaft), language: English, abstract: Inhaltsangabe:Abstract:At Glasgow s University Library I discovered a book about Scotland on film, Scotch Reels. Originally, Scotch Reels is the title of a research carried out in 1982 about the depiction of Scotland on screen. It was revealed then that the predominant image of Scotland was very much engaged with stereotypes (defined as the heather and haggis image by one of the book s critics) and had obviously nothing to do with the contemporary reality of Scotland. Not surprisingly, that radical view has found a lot of stern critics.On superficial examination, when I think of all the recent films set in Scotland (ranging from the historical epos Braveheart to the contemporary fast-paced drug story Trainspotting, to mention two of the more popular examples), it seems to me that contemporary films set in Scotland show a wider spectrum of Scottish life than they apparently did before the 1980s, when the stories were mostly (with a few exceptions only) set in the Highlands or on an island, in a community far away from contemporary (modern and industrial) life. As a classic example of those films one can mention the musical Brigadoon by Vicente Minnelli from the year 1954.However, in my thesis I want to concentrate on films set in the City of Glasgow, since there would be far too much material concerned if I considered every single available recent film set in Scotland.I would like to find out whether the image of Glasgow has improved (or widened in its conception) through the release of recent films, compared to its depiction in older movies.As I could not analyse all recent feature films set in Glasgow in this context, I decided to concentrate on a few examples. By taking a closer look at these films I hope to be able to demonstrate how varied (or one-sided as will be determined) the contemporary portrayal of the city is.I do not want to omit mentioning my awareness of the fact that my selection is very subjective. Had I selected other movies, the result would naturally have been a different one. Also, I have not taken into account television films or series set in the Glasgow area. Especially in recent years a whole range of series has been produced and broadcasted, for instance the surreal hospital-drama Psychos, starring Douglas Henshall, the controversial Tinsel Town, set in Glasgow s lively clubbing scene, or Glasgow Kiss, which portrays the city as a modern, airy place, inhabited by sympathetic, educated middle-class people something the title might not indicate.The following films have been chosen for closer examination:Small Faces (Gilles McKinnon, 1995) My Name is Joe (Ken Loach, 1998) Orphans (Peter Mullan, 1998) Ratcatcher (Lynne Ramsay, 1999).What I considered of importance for this selection are the facts that I have actually seen these films on screen at least once, and that they are available on VHS. Actually, I would have liked to include more recent films set in Glasgow (such as the digitally shot One Life Stand by May Miles Thomas, 2000; Sweet Sixteen, Ken Loach, 2002; Morvern Callar, Lynne Ramsay, 2000), but as most of them are not available on video (yet) an analysis is made more difficult. Another important point for selection is, naturally, that the story of those films is wholly or at least partially set in Glasgow.Looking at the films it becomes obvious that all these productions are British, some even Scottish. This was not intended, but should not influence my analysis of Glasgow s recent screen image in any way.This lack of non-British film-makers interest in setting their films in Glasgow is interesting to note, especially because films set in Scotland s rural areas do . 184 pp. Englisch. …
