- Abstract
- Kelly Gabron 14 Illusionistic cinema works to conceal the mechanisms and tactics deployed in service of creating seamlessness and forward momentum within the space-time of the film. - Kelly Gabron 4 Illusionistic cinema works to conceal the mechanisms and tactics deployed in service of creating seamlessness and forward momentum within the space-time of the film. The Maladjusteds create movies that punctuate, highlight, and, indeed (!), capitalize on the ways in which Genre Movies (action, science fiction, and horror) potently legitimate sites of radicality within the crusty annals of illusionistic cinema.[14] In Genre (and Genre-Bending) lies the hope and future of commercial cinema. In some cases, though, the primary reason that any coherence can be grafted from such works is because the placebo-film's signs and signifiers are in fact threadbare stereotypes, exoticisms, and clichés.[17] In support of a commercially viable radical form, the placebo-filmmaker relies on the familiarity of minstrelsy for narrative coherence.
