Handbuch Filmtheorie

Zusammenfassung

Feministische Filmtheorie hat grundsätzlich eine kritische und politische Ausrichtung. Untersuchte sie zunächst filmische Gender-Repräsentationen auf ihren ideologischen Gehalt hin, so werden diese in der Folge sowohl historisch wie auch theoretisch relativiert. Feministische Filmtheorie und Genderforschung erschließen repressive Strukturen, ebenso aber auch emanzipatorische Möglichkeiten und Hoffnungen in Film und Kino.

Notes

  1. 1.

    „Postfeminist fictions frequently set aside both evident economic disparities and the fact that the majority of women approach paid labor as an economic necessity rather than a ,choice.‘ As this suggests, postfeminism is white and middle class by default […]“ (Tasker und Negra 2007, S. 2).

  2. 2.

    Im ersten Band (Nichols 1976) sind feministische Filmanalysen, z. B. Claire Johnstons Artikel „Women’s Cinema as Counter Cinema“, noch in das Kap. Genre Criticism eingeordnet.

  3. 3.

    „[…] we must still account for the pleasure and fascination […]. These problems cannot be made to vanish merely by subsuming aesthetics under ideology, […] as Laura Mulvey does in ‚Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema,‘ where she argues that all Hollywood narrative conforms to the general requirement of providing viewing pleasure for men“ (Nichols 1985, S. 7, vgl. auch S. 12–13).
