A personagem de cinema: pessoa, figura, presença.

- Abstract
This paper examines three predominant modes by which film characters address themselves to the viewer: person, figure, and presence. We articulate different dimensions of film experience (narrative, figural, and sensorial) and question both the figuration of the body and the implication of the viewer in the constitution of “character effects” (Pavis, 1997). While this research explores a diverse set of films, it focuses on disjunctions between bodies and identities in Holy Motors (Leos Carax, 2012), Inland Empire (David Lynch, 2006) and The Congress (Ari Folman, 2013).
