Women in Godard: counterpoints to the feminist film theory in Une Femme estune Femme (1961)
| Resumo: | The article’s purpose is to review Laura Mulvey’s theory of visual pleasure through an analysis of JeanLuc Godard’s Une Femme estune Femme (1961). The movie was made about fifteen years before the publication of Mulvey’s ideas, but offers a counterpoint to some of article main theses. The self-consciousness of narrative, the anti-ilusionism of Godard’s style and the female protagonist who controls the action are deviations from theory of the male gaze in cinema. In this way, the movie presents issues that the feminist film theory discussed decades after Mulvey’s article, as in the example of Ann Kaplan’s studies about female characters in 1980’s narrative cinema. To discuss these issues, this article interprets Une Femme estUne Femme according to the psychoanalytic reference of Mulvey and Kaplan. |
