  1. Indigenous Film Kara Daniel CMC 200

  2. Big 5 • Topic: Indigenous Film • Focus: Authenticity in Indigenous Film • Methods: Discourse + Textual (comparative) • Targets: Whale Rider (2002), Whale Rider (the book), Smoke Signals (1998), “This is What It Means to Say Phoenix, Arizona,” Critical reviews (Rottentomatoes, Metacritic, IMDb) • Goals: Is Indigenous authentic?

  3. Brief History • Global Hollywood • Ethnography • Nanook of the North (1922) • Indigenous Film

  4. Original Research 1 • Textual Analysis (Comparative?) • Compare book/short story to film • Change in elements: Narrator, characters, substance use. • Change in Themes: leaving indigenous home/culture and what does it mean to be “Native”?

  5. Original Research 2 • Discourse Analysis • Critical reviews online • “comedy” • Actors/Actresses are the focus • “break stereotypes”

  6. Authentic? • TBA • Semantics are the big issue of this paper— • Yes Indigenous film may be more authentic, that is not the goal so that should not be the way they are read. • Film = Art • Should we expect movies to educate us is big question.
