spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/8125 The cutting edge : deviant realisms and cinematic disruption Watson, Mary Higgins, John Film and Media Studies Includes bibliographical references (leaves 212-225) This thesi explores two possibilities and relates them to each other: infusions of fantasy (or magic, the dream, the ,marvellous) which undermine realism and the use of disruption as a specific strategy for communicating disorder or elusive experience. It examines the expression of both fantasy and disruption with an emphasis on film editing. This study considers editing as the foundation of narrative structure in film, and explores the effects of alternative articulations of space, time and the body in film that deliberately subvert the norms of continuity editing. 2014-10-06T11:25:52Z 2014-10-06T11:25:52Z 2007 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/8125 eng application/pdf Centre for Film and Media Studies Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
