Jump Cut 51
Posted by Bill Benzon on 06/19/09 at 06:47 PM
Jump Cut styles itself as A Review of Contemporary Media. Issue 51 has more articles than I care to list, but you can find the TOC here.
There are a number of articles on matters that have been taken up in The Valve or that strike me as being of interest to Valvesters. Running down the TOC from top to bottom: three articles on documenting torture; The Wire as narrative and metanarrative; Battlestar Galactica; Miyazaki’s Spirited Away (a bit heavy on the Marxism, but nonetheless perceptive and interesting); a documentary about Samuel R. Delany (more on sex than SF); Children of Men; two articles on The Dark Knight; WALL-E; a section on horror films. And much more.
Check it out.
