Atom Egoyan by Emma Wilson (English) Paperback Book

Description: Atom Egoyan by Emma Wilson Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description An integrated analysis of Egoyans contemplative cinema Publisher Description The films of Atom Egoyan immerse the viewer in a world of lush sensuality, melancholia, and brooding obsession. From his earliest films Next of Kin and Family Viewing, to his coruscating Exotica and recent projects such as Where the Truth Lies, Egoyan has paid infinite attention to narrative intricacy and psychological complexity. Traumatic loss and its management through ritual return as themes in his films as he explores personal scenarios of mourning and broader issues of genocide, exile, and postmemory, in particular in relation to his own Armenian heritage. In this study, Emma Wilson closely analyzes the range of Egoyans films and their visual textures, emotional control, and perverse beauty. Offering a full-scale chronological overview of Egoyans work on films up to and including Where the Truth Lies, Wilson shows the persistence and development of certain structures and themes in Egoyans cinema: questions of exile and nostalgia, trauma and healing, the family and sexuality. While drawing on ideas about intercultural cinema, Wilson also sets Egoyans films in the context of contemporary Canadian cinema and European art-house cinema. Egoyans own comments on his films thread throughout Wilsons analyses, and the book features a recent interview with the director. Author Biography Emma Wilson is a reader in contemporary French literature and film at the University of Cambridge and a fellow of Corpus Christi College. Her publications include Alain Resnais and Cinemas Missing Children.
