- Abstract
This article discusses the postproduction methods of images from cinematographic archive and their possible implications to the re-evaluation of historical narrative. The first two parts of the article describe the notion of cinematographic archive, paying special attention to the usage of archival footage containing critical potential, and also the features ascribed to found footage cinema are reviewed. The activation of the archive, suggested by Zsuzsa Barros, as the grounds of critical evaluation of past narratives in found footage cinema, is discussed. With consideration to the typology models of found footage cinema films, suggested by William C. Wees and Paul Arthur, a critical look at past narratives and creative recontextualisation of archival footage are compared. The third part of the article examines Revue, a film by Sergei Loznitsa, which illustrates the possibilities of past images' recontextualisation in found footage cinema. The article reveals how the encouraged reflection of imagery creation and the emphasised distance between images of the past and viewers' present allows the secondary footage usage in Loznitsa's film to achieve new imagery of recent past. The article states that the editing of Loznitsa's film stimulates affective viewers' reaction to the recent past and emphasises the falseness of imagery created by Soviet cinema chronicles. The final part of the article briefly reviews the perspectives of found footage cinema research.
