Feminist Filmic Analysis (A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night)

The research essay (5500-6000 words) will be a filmic analysis which makes use of one or more theoretical approaches from the course. Students must develop their own essay topic and choose their own film (s):My Research Argument:I argue that the use of the female vampire character in a “A Girl Who Walks Home Alone At Night” is a form of feminist resistance to the Iranian patriarchal society. I also show that this film is an example of resilience and creativity of feminists in their refusal to be dominated. I propose that the appropriation of the symbolic meaning and the ironic use of the ‘burka’ covering in the first female Middle Eastern vampire character signals a rebellion and resistance to a male Iranian patriarchal society and a response to a common portrayal of Middle Eastern woman as victims in mainstream media. It can be seen as a way to mock traditional Iranian societal values.In this essay my focus will be to demonstrate that altering the original uses and meanings of covering can be interpreted as a form of resistance to the local hegemony emphasizing social conformity. I also show through this film that by imitating a dominantly male character (vampire), the use of this covered Iranian female character can also be seen as an attempt to mock the institutional patriarchal power. I will explain how the veil in this movie can be seen as a cloak of invisibility that challenges the enforcement of a male dominated justice and discipline the underlying gender politics in the region. Professors Feedback and advice:I think you\’ll find research about women in Iranian film, about the representation of the veil, and about feminist approaches to reframing the veil more useful than some of the classic male gaze theory. Or, better, you can start from male gaze theory but move to the context of feminist and diasporic Iranian film and gender politics as the main concern of your essay.So, as a next step, let me know what your argument about the film in relation to the question of redefining Iranian gender politics is. In terms of research, you\’ll need to become more familiar with Iranian film and its associated gender politics, as we briefly discussed last week. I\’d recommend that you have a look at the founding book (written in English) on Iranian film: Hamid Naficy\’s An Accented Cinema. There are also books on post-revolutionary Iranian cinema (e.g., Mottahedeh 2008) as well as a couple of articles from a feminist perspective to get you started on the gender politics question:M MacDonald, \’Muslim Women and the Veil\’, Feminist Media Studies 6.1LC Moore, \’Women in a Widening Frame\’, Camera Obscura 20.2 GM Rezai-Rashti, \’Transcending the Limitations\’, Critique: Critical Middle Eastern Studies 16.2The sources include among other feminist theories:Ann Kaplan (1983) “Is the Gaze Male?” in Women and film: Both sides of the camera, New York, Methuen, 23-35. ISBN: 0416317502Hamid Naficy\’s An Accented Cinema.M MacDonald, \’Muslim Women and the Veil\’, Feminist Media Studies 6.1LC Moore, \’Women in a Widening Frame\’, Camera Obscura 20.2 GM Rezai-Rashti, \’Transcending the Limitations\’, Critique: Critical Middle Eastern Studies 16.2

Narrative/Descriptive Essay

1) Select a \”problem focus\” of a lesson. Marylou Dantonio, on page 26 of Collegial Coaching: Inquiry Into the Teaching Self, wrote the following, which can be used as a guide for this assignment:Planning. This is the most important phase of the cycle, since it is here that the teacher and coach frame the \”problem focus\” of the lesson. Here they discuss the teacher\’s purposes for the lesson, specify and sequence the instructional events, identify problems that may arise in delivery, and determine strategies for dealing with the anticipated problems. In terms of students, the coach assists the teacher in specifying on- and off-task behaviors. Planning is concluded as the teacher and coach make decisions about what specifically is to be observed by the coach during lesson implementation, as well as how data will be collected so that it is useful to the teacher in making decisions concerning the effectiveness of the lesson.2) Write a descriptive or narrative essay (1,250-1,500 words) that illustrates this lesson. Dantonio writes, \”In actor\’s language, it is a dress rehearsal; in linebacker\’s language, it is a scrimmage. It offers the coaching partners, time to think through, picture, and understand the teacher\’s lesson plan.\”3) The goal of this essay is to produce a narrative for the Module 6 CLC assignment in which the students will use the essay to inform the observation and reflection cycles of coaching.4) APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.5) This assignment uses a grading rubric. Instructors will be using the rubric to grade the assignment; therefore, students should review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the assignment criteria and expectations for successful completion of the assignment.I have attached the three lecture notes that we have received so far in class and also the grading rubric that the professor will use.
