I have decided to do my blog on bad cinema and bad behaviour portrayed films. I made this decision both because of my area of academic study and my own personal interest in films. The first problem I encountered was how to define a ‘Bad’ Film in context of this module. I therefore took the key themes of the module and applied these to my knowledge of films to compile a list of examples of ‘bad’ cinema. The subject areas that I have looked for in each film include, adultery, masturbation, smoking, drug abuse, religion, stalking, stealing, lying, gangsters and general bad behaviour including petty violence and excessive drinking. I have therefore defined a list of films to look at in terms of being bad, on which I will comment on in future blogs. Some of the films include:
Nice idea for a blog Redall lol. Are you going to try and justify why each film merits artistic concern and which ones lack enough moral fibre and are just designed to disturb the senses?
Yeah that's what I intend to do. As an examination of drug abuse, Requiem for a Dream has far more artistic and moral fibre than Trainspotting, which I'll discuss at a later date. :D
