Film history + Feminism + France

[Annie Fee @annieaislingfee]

Really enjoyed co-hosting our workshop on #sustainability and the Ecological in Film and Media Studies @koebenhavns_uni today! Great talks by Oscar Pedersen, Anna Mrozewicz, Johannes Riis and Ege Heckmann 🌱🌊🐋

[Annie Fee @annieaislingfee]

@DrHannahScott Sounds like such a fun class! Maybe Patricia Tilburg’s 2019 book would be useful: Working Girls: Sex, Taste, and Reform in the Parisian Garment Trades, 1880-1919.

Le 6 avril 1944, 44 enfants juifs réfugiés à Izieu étaient raflés par la Gestapo après une dénonciation anonyme. Ne reste d'eux que leurs dessins, émouvants témoignages de l’insouciance de l’enfance.

@hels Rebecca Williams has a recent book on Disney theme park fandom and adult Disney fans https://t.co/5omsjKUTzR. You can also hear her talk about it here: https://t.co/0cGwyZj6d1

The 2nd edition of the Mirage Film Festival will unfold in Oslo from 12-16 October and will showcase 25 creative and visual feature-length films along with ten shorts that all have reality as their starting point. https://t.co/IeOBj5ui5c

@NybroPetersen Some good leads here: https://t.co/XRCHYnrSga and maybe this one could be useful ☺️ https://t.co/iE126Kjckf

J'aime les vielles cartes pour ce qu'elles montrent. Ici ce sont ce que les remembrements agricoles ont détruit : la diversité des sols. Cette diversité est pourtant 1er puit de carbone et 1ère réserve de graines au monde 🌾
C'est simplement la base de la vie !

@cinemateket Sudden Fear (David Miller, 1952) ☠️ Here’s Crawford selling tickets to moviegoers at Loew’s State Theatre in New York as a publicity stunt to promote the film ✨

[Film TV & Media UEA @FTM_UEA]

And the 08/03 event is VERY exciting.

Are your politicians fickle, judges unreliable, generals merely human? Why not replace them all with electronic brains? My latest IJMES article shows how Turkish state leaders entertained that possibility in the early 1970s. https://t.co/cGsIsoaxFP

Anyway, preparing a lecture on Film Noir and shouldn't be getting lost in @mediahistorydl !

In Double Indemnity, Fred MacMurray's character Walter Neff tells Phyllis Dietrichson he "used to peddle vacuum cleaners ... Not much money but you learn a lot about life.”

[Annie Fee @annieaislingfee]

How funny that Billy Wilder cast an actor supposedly so shy that he failed to sell a single vacuum cleaner as the "fresh" and fast-talking Walter Neff, former vacuum cleaner salesman.

[Konbini news @konbininews]

Samedi soir, elles se sont fait violemment interpeler par les forces de l'ordre lors de la manif féministe à Paris.

Alizée, Valentine et Emma racontent les insultes et les violences policières qu’elles ont subies ainsi que les conditions dégradantes en garde à vue.

[Annette Kuhn @AnnetteKuhn7]

Many, many women have been erased from film history, as @WFPProject brilliantly shows. But Alice Guy has been up there in histories of early cinema for as long as I can remember.
