Description de l'ouvrage :
Examines François Ozon, one of France’s most prolific and best known international (queer) directors
• Analyses films including Potiche, Frantz and By the Grace of God, and shows how Ozon’s work is deeply influenced by literature, cinema and music
• Draws on recent theoretical developments in gender, queer and film studies
• Each chapter offers a case study of one film while grounding its arguments within Ozon’s larger oeuvre, as well as the social, historical and political context
A queer auteur who plays with generic conventions, François Ozon is one of France’s most prolific and best known international directors, who has built a filmography that not only engages in the representation of non-normative sexualities, kinship and violence, but also makes room for social outcasts and marginalised communities. This edited collection brings together renowned and emergent scholars to investigate further questions of minority, queerness, (queer) intertextuality and gender representations, as well as secrecy, transgression and intimacy in his films, offering the most up-to-date study of François Ozon’s cinema.
Revue de Presse :
From experimentations with genre and intertextuality to new visions of queerness and relationships, ReFocus: The Films of François Ozon captures the unique spirit of one of France’s most idiosyncratic directors. Loïc Bourdeau’s edited volume is intellectual yet creative, cohesive yet wide-ranging, inventive yet steeped in a rich cultural tradition. Much like François Ozon’s cinema itself.– Gemma King, The Australian National University
By now a familiar fixture in contemporary French cinema, the prolific auteur François Ozon seems to have grown in stature over the last decade. Loïc Bourdeau has assembled an exciting and eclectic collection of original essays that combines a welcome return to the perverse queerness of the filmmaker’s early work with a full examination of the later more ‘mature’ Ozon including a timely focus on the sexual politics of abuse. This is an impressively wide-ranging collection that will no doubt contribute to a fuller critical understanding of one of 21st century cinema’s important directors.– Nick Rees-Roberts, Sorbonne Nouvelle University
