Derek Jarman was one of the most innovative British filmmakers
of his generation. Working largely outside the British film
establishment and within tight budgetary constraints, he produced a
series of features and shorter films that are highly personal and
yet responsive to major issues of our time. For Jarman, the most
compelling of these was undoubtedly the celebration of gay culture
and the battle for gay rights--in which he was prominent until his
death. This book brings together seven new essays on Jarman's work,
one of the director's last interviews, and supporting filmography
and bibliography.
This book brings together seven new essays on Jarman's work, one
of the director's last interviews, and supporting filmography and
bibliography. The contributions examine the full range of his
output from "Sebastiane" (1976) to "Blue" (1993), and include
discussion of his approach to narration, his role as gay activist,
his commitment to English artistic traditions and fascination with
the age of Shakespeare, and the changing aesthetic preferences of
his last films.
