Abstract:This article examines the tensions between different schools of thought regarding the evaluation of television. Using scholarship on television and affect, I argue that all discussions of the medium involve evaluation, and that those evaluations are always conducted on both aesthetic and ideological terms, at the same time. In doing so, I unpack the challenges that attend evaluation, emphasizing that the variability of viewer experiences with programs complicates some common assumptions about the medium, particularly the aesthetic value of lowbrow texts and the ideological problems associated with the medium's representations of minorities.

This article examines how films set in the informal settlements of the Global South are exhibited and awarded at international festivals because of their authentic evocation of “third world” reality. According to the discourse of global news and aid organizations, the metropolitan areas of developing nations are congested megacities, which are encapsulated by the squalor, criminality, and violence of the slum. The article analyzes acclaimed works of Filipino filmmaker Brillante Mendoza, which are controversial for being examples of poverty porn. The effort of such films to create authentic realism inevitably generates an excess of meaning that subverts the prevailing urban discourse.

Abstract: This article analyzes Bette Gordon’s first feature film Variety (1983), reassessing how experimental novelist Kathy Acker’s contributions to the screenplay awkwardly positioned the film within contemporary cultural debates over pornography and the future of avant-garde filmmaking. While centered on an erotic thriller narrative concerning a woman’s entrée into the scuzzy world of New York City porno theaters, Gordon and Acker also take up in the film a series of three related representational problems for the 1980s: feminist approaches to pornography, narrative in an avant-garde tradition, and the role of speech and writing in film.

Abstract: In the late 1960s—at the height of the Vietnam War—two documentaries produced in opposition to the crisis were released in the United States and East Germany. Bridging the Cold War’s mythic cultural divide, In the Year of the Pig (produced by the American independent filmmaker Emile de Antonio in 1968) and Pilots in Pajamas (a 1967 joint effort by the East German state filmmakers Walter Heynowski and Gerhard Scheumann) represent parallel projects, in terms of both topic and commitment to critical mass-media practices. This article posits that in addition to their advocacy for the end of the war in Vietnam, the filmmakers used the crisis to critique domestic mass media and to model its alternative as a national, even patriotic, necessity.
