DESCRIPTION:\nTuesday\, May 9\, 2023 : 4 PM : Cornerstone Screening Room\nContemporary US culture is obsessed with style. One function of incessant remakes and reboots is to displace emphasis from stories and characters onto how they are depicted this time\, such as The Batman (2021) or “live action” versions of Disney classics. So\, too\, do the sympathetic recuperations of the previously villainous\, such as the title characters of Joker or Maleficent\, who are more explicitly stylized than their originals. On social media\, the culture of memes relies similarly on a logic of nextness: how will the same joke or image be reiterated to solicit new appreciation and attention? At the same time\, popular art cinema\, such as Paul Thomas Anderson’s Phantom Thread (2017)\, Pablo Larraìn’s Jackie (2016) and Spencer (2021) are explicitly about fabrics\, design choices\, and fashion. What Camp Is! will thus argue that we find ourselves today in the realm of Camp\, and so\, it is high time we figure out just exactly what Camp is and is not. \nThis lecture is part of the Colorado College Visiting Series in Film and Culture.\n\nhttps://today.coloradocollege.edu/events/6440
