Abstract

This article explores how Agnès Varda’s short films Ydessa, les ours et etc… (2004) and Ulysse (1983) examine the role of the photograph in relation to memory and the past. Although the photos that each film scrutinizes have been produced and exhibited under different circumstances, they are alike in providing opportunities for Varda to inquire about their status as archival documents and interrogate the versions of the (sometimes idealized) pasts they appear to depict. While there are pleasures, in both films, for viewers gazing at such imagery, both films advocate a more reflexive approach to the fantasized histories and imagined stories on offer.

人造记忆和静态照片:阿格尼斯·瓦尔达的短片《Ydessa》、《les ours》等(《Ydesza》、《熊》等)(2004年)和《尤利西斯》(1983年)
本文探讨了Agnès Varda的短片《Ydessa》、《les ours et etc.》(2004)和《Ulysse》(1983)如何审视照片在记忆和过去中的作用。尽管每部电影仔细审查的照片都是在不同的情况下制作和展出的,但它们都为瓦尔达提供了机会,让他询问它们作为档案文件的地位,并询问它们所描绘的(有时是理想化的)过去的版本。虽然这两部电影都给凝视这些图像的观众带来了乐趣,但这两部影片都主张对所提供的幻想历史和想象故事采取更具反射性的方式。

期刊介绍: The main purposes of SFS are: To stimulate ongoing research on individual short films as a basis for a better understanding of the art form To provide a flow of cutting-edge teaching materials that can be used in courses in which short films are either studied or produced, at film schools or universities To offer fresh inspiration to filmmakers and other professionals working with short films in connection with festivals, national film institutes, regional film centres, etc. While the principal focus is on the short fiction film, other classic forms – such as the short documentary, the short experimental film and the short animation film – are also covered from time to time. In each issue, two productions are singled out for comprehensive presentation and close study. For each film, the reader will find production data, an interview with the director, a shot-by-shot breakdown of the film with a still illustrating every shot, a number of peer-reviewed articles that illuminate the film from a variety of perspectives and a link enabling subscribers to view the film.
