Laura Mulvey in Person A special last-minute addition to our program! We are pleased to premiere the newest film by Laura Mulvey, co-directed with Mark Lewis. In reference to Laura Mulvey, Robin Wood noted, "Few English-language critics have had so radical and widespread an influence on serious thinking about the cinema." She is the author of the seminal 1975 article, "Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema," which is collected with other of her essays in Visual and Other Pleasures; and of Citizen Kane in the BFI Film Classics series. She is co-author with Colin MacCabe and Mick Eaton of Godard: Images, Sounds, Politics. Her films, which approach a radical aesthetic from the standpoint of feminism and issues of representation, include Riddles of the Sphinx (1977), Amy! (1980), Frida and Tina (1983), all co-directed with Peter Wollen.
