- W202313586 abstract "This thesis argues that the presentation of narrative in film involves afundamental indeterminacy, derived from the status of the event in film. I elaborate thisidea of indeterminacy through Gilles Deleuze’s ontology of the filmic image and DanielFrampton’s phenomenology of film-thinking. I analyse various manifestations ofnarrative indeterminacy, looking at examples from silent-era, classical andcontemporary cinema from around the world, both within the studio model and outsideof it. I look at how we may theorise narrative agency in light of this indeterminacy andits various forms, proposing an alternative to previous models of filmic narration, aswell as examining the implications of indeterminacy for a viewer’s activity inunderstanding narrative and how this relates to narrative agency. Here I use WolfgangIser’s reader-response theory and his theory of literary indeterminacy to propose thatthis act of viewing is fundamentally interpretive, exploring the extent to which a filmicequivalent to Iser’s implied reader may be identified, and the implications of this forconceptions of the relationship between the various types of viewer proposedthroughout film theory.What emerges from this is a theory of the act of viewing that attends to theparticular status of the event in the moving image of film and the indeterminacy thatfollows from this in a manner that previous theories do not, proposing an alternative toDavid Bordwell’s theory of narrative comprehension and the related dismissal ofinterpretation. I suggest how viewer activity can be theorised alongside – rather thaninstead of – the 'passive' spectators of ideologically oriented film theory, and that whatis required is attention to this intersection of viewing positions in film theory." @default.
