Research reading 8
This is another academic article, under my subheading 'solutions'. By solutions, I mean potential ways to improve the portrayal of sexual violence in cinema. This again is focusing on the idea of 'How should sexual assault be portrayed in Cinema to be less offensive?'
The main points from the article are as follows:
The main problem is media often portrays the trauma itself rather than the effects of trauma on the individual.
Even if rape scenes in films make people feel empathetic, viewers are unlikely to change their attitude long term. It is more likely to cause a positive response towards removing sexual assault acceptance if the film were to focus on the effects rather than an event.
A depiction of rape on screen would have to be rhetorical to widen to understand rape trauma beyond the event. It should be seen as personal, unconscious, cultural, and visual mediation of traumatic memory in order to shift current discourses.
Again, this is helpful for me to either focus specifically on the 'correct portrayal' of sexual assault in cinema. Or, this kind of discussion it is a way for me to conclude my research.

Stacy’s mom from the hit song Stacy’s mom is Jigsaw from hit movie series Saw. My gym teacher and I were stuck in the first Saw trap. I beat her up with a radiator and then chased Stacy’s mom in a high stakes chase scene.
Good dream.

open to suggestions
#personal#they dont HAVE to be horror per say. but i do think#it needs to have that psychosexual weirdo slant to it. ideally#violence and homoeroticism (in film!!!!) go hand in hand i guess

Justin baldoni decided to adapt It Ends With Us because he thought that stories about domestic violence, and specifically escaping and life beyond domestic violence deserved to be platformed.
Instead of being supported, he’s been mean girl’d by the cast; that’s treating the film like its this cutesy rom com : and I think this rly encapsulates everything that’s wrong with the book, and the fanbase it’s amassed
#adi.txt#it ends with us#anti colleen hoover#justin baldoni#it actually makes me so so upset like every single appearance he’s doing for this press tour#justin is talking about dv statistics and uplifting blake and uplifting colleen#he directed and starred in this film#meanwhile the rest of the cast is ltr acting like this is just another rom com#like justin’s so specific in his interviews about how the reason he made this film was to draw attention to domestic violence#and the struggles that victims go through#and hopes to reach out to victims of domestic violence and empower them thru this film#and do i think colleen hoover’s book is the right avenue for that message ?#no#but i also think that its so pathetic of everyone else involved in this film to actively disregard that vision during this press tour#and just ice justin out of his own film

The idea that uni protesters are "elitist ivy-league rich kids larping as revolutionaries" on Twitter and Reddit and even here is so fucking funny to me if you actually know anything about the student bodies at these unis. Take it from someone who's going to one of the biggest private unis in the US, 80% of the peers I know are either from the suburbs or an apartment somewhere in America, children of immigrants, or here on a student visa. I've heard about one-percenter students, but I've never met one in person. Like, don't get me wrong, the institution as a whole is still very privileged and white. I've talked with friends and classmates about feeling weird or dissonant being here and coming from such a different background. But in my art program, I see BIPOC, disabled, queer, lower-income students and faculty trying to deconstruct and tear that down and make space every day. So to take a cursory glance at a crowd of student protesters in coalitions that are led by BIPOC & 1st/2nd-gen immigrant students and HQ'd in ethnic housings and student organizations and say, "ah. children of the elite." Get real.
#also idk how to tell you this but even if it were true. wealthy children potentially sacrificing their educational careers to protest is#a good thing actually. idk how to tell you that caring about people from other nations is good#personal#“this war has nothing to do with most students cuz nobody's getting drafted” idk how to explain to you that we should be angry#that our tuitions of 10s of thousands of dollars that we pay every year for an education is being used to fund a genocidal campaign#also the implication that if you go to a uni institution you are automatically privileged by participation no matter your bg#i didn't /want/ to go to this school. i was supposed to go to a school with an art/animation program. but i realized my immigrant#parents have been working their whole lives to get me here. and turning the opportunity down would be a disservice to their sacrifice#this is getting into convos of “what 2nd gen kids owe their parents” which is different for everyone but. yeah#i just get pissed off at seeing people misrepresenting student bodies as “wealthy” and “privileged” and “elite” when it's such a blatant li#i remember a year ago a friend told me they can't fly home to hong kong for winter break because the plane tickets are too expensive#so they have to find temporary housing around the area#last quarter for a film doc class my film partner made a doc on a small group of marxist grad students from india discussing praxis#during a rally a few months ago in response to police presence the coalition invited palestinian students to speak about their experiences#and lead songs and read poems they wrote. these are STUDENTS. are they elitist too?#this is not to disregard my own personal privilege either.#this whole narrative's just to rationalize a lack of empathy to me. seeing a 19yo student get shot by a rubber bullet and your first#reaction is “HAW! HAW! bet richy rich didn't see THAT coming when she put on her terrorist hood!”#newsflash. these big uni campuses are HAUNTED by the violence of past protests and revolutions and police brutality. we know.#why do you think these coalitions have been making reinforced barricades at record speed

Focus on Violence against Women
Out of the topics that I have considered, I think the topic of most interest to me is the portrayal of violence towards women in film, potentially focusing on the effect this has on audiences and the way it normalises poor treatment towards women.
From this start of a topic here is my initial question that will continue to need to be refined and made more specific.
How does the portrayal of violence against women in cinema affect the audience and their relationship towards women?
From here I can make the question more detailed
What are the psychological and sociocultural effects of portraying violence against women in cinema on audience perceptions, attitudes and behaviours?
However, this is still extremely broad. I think one way of me reducing my search is to focus on a specific type of violence against women. Either, sexual violence or domestic and choose specific series, genre etc. My first two readings are each going to focus on a different violence in media: sexual and domestic as a place to start.
While doing this initial research I am trying to reach an argument around how violence is poorly portrayed and it normalises violence in real-world behaviour. My argument, however, is not going to conclude with removing all violence from cinema (because these can still be important stories to be told) but instead focusing on the poor treatment towards these issues and the disregard for the impact it leaves on an audience.

very strongly feel that moist/adora is the only actual romantic relationship terry pratchett ever wrote.
#what if you were an inveterate liar in love with the first woman whose principles you couldn't compromise#the fact that her principles are nonsensical sort of strangely skewed and radical does not affect this at all.#......I'm reading making money which is surprisingly robust; I remember it being weaker back in the day;#but it's got the plotting of thud with 40s film patter and I like it very much.#there's a whole scene where moist introduces adora to hubert; the pale undersocialized economist who lives in the basement#and she comments essentially ''why are only men like this?''#and moist carefully doesn't point out that ''earns a tiny wage for golems'' ''puts up with vandalism and violence for golems''#''camps in the wilderness investigating a millennia-old song she can't hear for golems''#is different but not really that different. it's very romantic.#(......to be fair sam/sybil gets more robust as it goes on too; it's just thin as paper for a bit.#sybil spends a couple of books being pretty unhappy.#I do find this compelling though; it's just not as straightforward as liar4corkscrewy rebel smoker.)#discworld
