(Dagbladet): – With my background as a filmmaker, I know that the pictures from these series need the into in ingenious and clever ways, ” says author and film director Terje Dragseth (61) to the Newspaper.
“There is a “dark room” in all of us”, writes Dragseth in an article in Aftenposten today, with a clear reference to the police’s horrific pedophilia-reeling last week.
- Kvinneundertrykkende
In the text discusses the author what he describes as voldtektsdyrkning in the film and entertainment industry:
“It is propaganda of the very clear kvinneundertrykkende terms. It is here that the seeds of sexual voldsfantasier are awakened and stimulated and grown until it’s subtle, in their exorbitant request to our deepest instincts and the vulnerable humanity”, it introduces Dragseth.
to send a message his way home pulls out two of the world’s biggest tv successes right now, scifi-drama “Westworld”, and the fantasy epic, “Game of Thrones”, as examples of sexualised violence returns to normal.
Completely crazy
“I think he is totally grounded,” says Dagbladet TV reviewer and critic, Marie Kleve, about Dragseths chronicle.
She believes it seems not as if Dragseth has seen properly on these series before he fired up.
- I respond to mistenkeliggjøringen of us who are watching the series. He “shamer” all who like them and claim that we have a dark room inside of us that makes that we love to see on the assault. It is not the case, ” says Kleve.
She emphasizes that “Game of Thrones” several times has been criticized for depictions of sexualized violence. And that she believes it is appropriate to discuss how far the series should go in to distinguish violence and sex.
a Lot of cruel
Dragseth elaborates on the piece opposite the Newspaper:
I am a movie director and it means that I read the film more analytically than many others without the same background. In particular, I can see how clipping, audio, and other visual methods will be used towards the viewers, ” says Dragseth to the Newspaper.
Both “Westworld” and “Game of Thrones” has frequent touches of death, sex, violence, murder, abuse, strong language and rape. Of and to be combined all at the same time, in very bloody scenes.
the Series is not something for children, but the age limit is 15 years.
Serieuniversene is clear fiksjonsverdener, but it does not help, for the emotionally seduced we, while we believe our intellectual analysis can keep the violence at a distance, believe Dragseth, who wish that the public must think well over kvinnesynet as forfektes in the entertainment industry.
Kleve, on his side, believes it is not so that all overgrepscenene is with for entertainment’s sake.
In all there is this feminist series, where kvinnerollene is important. It’s about women who are being oppressed, but which are stronger than the men who oppress them. So have several of the events and the scene where the rape is presented key features of the action, ” says Kleve.
- React strongly
It is Dragseth disagree, and do not mean the series has something feminist aspect.
- These women do not present an alternative to the male-dominated world of violence and power. There are women who act with the same means, the same violence, and the same form of exercising power that mannfolka, ” says Dragseth.
Sexual violence against women consumed indiscriminately and becomes the entertainment for the tv viewers. I react strongly on the pressure that is created by the use of just violence and abuse in the major tv-series, adds the director.
- But do not people to think for themselves, Dragseth? The spoons well not all raw?
- This dramaturgy is thoughtful and can be used to promote a message. This we know. There is a reason that advertising is so prevalent in the western world. It works! We believe we have an intellectual readiness intact, but the series is viewed by millions all over the western world, and we must be able to discuss the limitless violence and why violence is so important to convey. Violence as entertainment offers me the contrary!, tell sørlendingen, resident in Kristiansand, norway.
the Daughters tells
There is perhaps little to do with it, admits Dragseth, but he believes that the theme doesn’t have to bagatelliseres.
Even chatting he with their daughters about what they see on the screen.
I can’t deny them to see these series, and I look at them even with his wife. At the same time, they support me in the piece I have written. The girls even tells about how the young boys from the normal home talks, ” says Dragseth.
They call girls for the whores, and where do you think they take it from. We will have it like that?, ask the 61-year-old continues:
the Impact makes that the community can be raw and simple. We need to talk with your children about this. Girls must say that such language is not okay, and parents must be good role models.
Interesting gender perspective
Rikke Schubart at the University of Odense in Denmark is filmforsker and has among other things researched on “Game of Thrones”. She believes in both “Game of Thrones” and “Westworld” has feminist perspectives.
we work with the novel, georges, which yes, is abused, but it is not to talk about that it only goes one way. Here is revenge an important aspect, and the characters have a depth that makes them interesting, ” says Schubart to the Newspaper.
She believes the series turns upside down on the many gender roles, and have complex female roles that don’t go off the road to take revenge.
- It is a hallmark of HBO shows that they are cross-border. One can well believe that they go over the limit when they portrayed violence, but I think they just therefore provides a more interesting discussion about sexualized violence in the TV-series, ” says Schubart.
She can understand that people may think the series has unpleasant scenes, but thinks it is to make them interesting.
- My experience as a scientist is that there is much that is mainstream, but that there may be a quality in it that is cross-border that creates discussion and challenges us as viewers, end Schubart.
