St Mary Magdalen's Home Movies (2017)

0.0/10 • 20 min •

Overview

Drawing on over a dozen films, St Mary Magdalen's Home Movies demonstrates the way in which Magdalen College, Oxford, has repeatedly been used by filmmakers in a strikingly patterned way. St Mary Magdalen's Home Movies demonstrates a new way of looking at how particular locations are treated in cinema – while at the same time using the essay film form itself as a means of providing a ‘queer’ (back) entry both into film studies and, in this particular instance, into a space that is otherwise accessed only by a privileged few.
