Extreme Cinema : Affective Strategies in Transnational Media Hardback
by Aaron Kerner, Jonathan Knapp
Hardback
- Information
Description
Extreme Cinema examines the highly stylized treatment of sex and violence in post-millennial transnational cinema, where the governing convention is not the narrative but the spectacle.
Using profound experiments in form and composition, including jarring editing, extreme close-ups, visual disorientation and sounds that straddle the boundary between non-diegetic and diegetic registers, this mode of cinema dwells instead on the exhibition of intense violence and an acute intimacy with the sexual body.
Interrogating works such as Wetlands and A Serbian Film, as well as the sub-culture of YouTube `reaction videos’, Aaron Michael Kerner and Jonathan L.
Knapp demonstrate the way content and form combine in extreme cinema to affectively manipulate the viewing body.
