Document Summary

Authorship and experimentalism: performance, the tempest, and the city. Authorship and the cultural politics of film criticism by james naremore. Authorship argues that it is productivity, the production and intention of the movie that counts. Need to know intentionality as it is exposed through the filming, how the filmmaker/author speaks. The intentionality of the filmmaking is processed through the actual production of the film itself. Exactly the opposite of what barth said. It"s the interpretation of the film film that makes the film (reception theory) It"s the intentionality behind the film that makes the film (production theory) Authorship is about how you make things, not about how you look at them after they"ve been made. How does a filmmaker actually control the space that he"s filmmaking. Barth would discount this by saying it"s our interpretation that counts. Authorship is a dictator view; they dictate what we see.
