Notorious alternative trailer

An alternative trailer for Notorious, made as part of the NEH funded workshop 'Scholarship in Sound & Image' at Middlebury College, June 2015. Inspired by a particular shot which hints at a dimension of the film which could be elaborated if the narrative were oriented slightly differently, this essay seeks to amplify the idea that the spy story of Notorious is a means to articulate ideas around gender, jealousy and sexual insecurity.

La Ciénaga Alternative Trailer
1
An exercise by Michael Talbott
plain
2016-04-30T11:44:11-07:00
Michael Talbott’s trailer for La Ciénaga (Lucrecia Martel, Argentina, 2001) invites the viewer to ask not ‘Is this a story I want to see?’ but rather ‘Is this a cinematic experience I want to have? Is this a cinematic world I want to inhabit?’
