Aspects chorégraphiques chez Claire Denis et François Ozon : vers une cinéchorégraphie
No full textThis work proposes to study the bridging (rapprochements) between contemporary cinema and modern dance, and how, through their interactions, there emerges a new cinematographic writing. This parallel between the two disciplines can be observed, firstly, through an increase in filmmaker/choreographer and actor/dancer collaborations, be they documentary films (Pina, Wenders [2013]), La danse, Wiseman [2009]), fiction films (Black Swan, Aronofsky [2010]), or adaptations of films into choreographic works (Les Enfants du paradis, Carné [1945], adapted by José Martinez [2008]). Modern dance, born of a rejection of classical dance and its conventions, inscribes itself in a reappropriation of the body, and the liberty of each, in order to find its own language, its own subjectivity -- concerns proper to all modern projects.
Our objective is not to describe a new genre, nor a movement, but rather to attempt to define and to explain a trend that intensified at the turn of the century. Through the cinematographic universes of Claire Denis and François Ozon, we propose to show that dance impregnates all processes of cinematographic creation. Beyond the occasional borrowings from dance that translate to the screen in choreographed sequences, we will explain the extent to which the films of Denis and Ozon are permeated by fundamental principles of modern dance.
This choreographic dimension, or cinéchorégraphie, can clearly be seen in the actors' bodies, as much in their movements (body language), as in their absence of movement (physical presence) and their sometimes narcissistic, but mostly modest, beauty. Moreover, cinéchorégraphie can be observed in more subtle ways from the mise-en-scène (scenic space, music, camera movements) all the way up to the montage, and gives to the viewer a unique perceptive cinematographic experience (in the phenomenological sense). The works offered by Denis and Ozon, being subject to multiple readings, can thereby make film lose its definitive and irrevocable status, bringing it closer to the live arts

Pour une narration plastique : Beau travail de Claire Denis
Get PDFBeau travail by Claire Denis (1999) is a free adaptation of Billy Budd by Hermann Melville. It deals with the story of a warrant officer who can’t stand the arrival of a new legionnaire. In order to direct certain scenes, the director worked with the choreographer Bernardo Montet.

Claire Denis
No full textWidely regarded as one of the most innovative and passionate filmmakers working in France today, Claire Denis has continued to make beautiful and challenging films since the 1988 release of her first feature, Chocolat. Judith Mayne's comprehensive study of these films traces Denis's career and discusses her major feature films in rich detail. Born in Paris but having grown up in Africa, Denis explores in her films the legacies of French colonialism and the complex relationships between sexuality, gender, and race. From the adult woman who observes her past as a child in Cameroon to the Lithuanian immigrant who arrives in Paris and watches a serial killer to the disgraced French Foreign Legionnaire attempting to make sense of his past, the subjects of Denis's films continually revisit themes of watching, bearing witness, and making contact, as well as displacement, masculinity, and the migratory subject
