- W269432975 abstract "Blaxploitation was a brief cycle of action films made specifically for black audiences in both the mainstream and independent sectors of the U.S. film industry during the early 1970s. Offering overblown fantasies of black power and heroism filmed on the sites of race rebellions of the late 1960s, blaxploitation films were objects of fierce debate among social leaders and commentators for the image of blackness they projected, in both its aesthetic character and its social and political utility. After some time spent as the bad object of African-American cinema history, critical and theoretical interest in blaxploitation resurfaced in the 1990s, in part due to the way that its images-and sounds--recirculated in contemporary film and music cultures. Since the early 1990s, a new generation of African-American filmmakers has focused on ghetto life; contemporary AfricanAmerican hip hop artists have taken blaxploitation images of urban culture and music as a point of origin for their own creative works; and, action auteurs like Quentin Tarantino and Guy Ritchie have quoted blaxploitation's soundtracks (as well as its narratives and characters) in films such as Jackie Brown (USA 1997) and Lock, stock, and two smoking barrels (UK 1998). Interest in blaxploitation has intensified over the past few years with the release of a high budget remake of Shaft (USA/GRM 2000); Isaac Julien's documentary BaadAsssss cinema: a bold look at 70's blaxploitation films (USA/UK 2002); Mario Van Peebles' homage to his father Melvin, BaadAsssss (USA 2003); and, the recently announced remake of Foxy Brown, to star Halle Berry in the title role. In histories of cinema, blaxploitation films like Melvin Van Peebles' Sweet Sweetback's baadasssss song (USA 1971) are recognised as a--not-unproblematic--site of origin for contemporary African-American independent filmmaking. In this role, blaxploitation films of the 1970s--along with those contemporary films that have inherited their generic concerns--are still debated, as touchstones for broader questions regarding cinema as an aesthetic, social, and political force in contemporary African-American culture." @default.
