However, the country found itself preoccupied with ways of elevating its status in the hope of being equal to and, eventually, surpassing the West. The Wind Rises (2013), an anime film written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki, tells the story of Jiro Horikoshi, an aeronautical engineer who created the Mitsubishi A6M Zero used by the Japanese Empire during World War II. The animation and the sound design of the film are two formal elements that paint Jiro as a pacifist with a desire to create airplanes. It is a portrayal of an individual aspiring to be disparate from a colonial power, but the narrative suggests that it is, perhaps, impossible to completely align oneself outside of the imperial force of the Japanese Empire. The article explores how The Wind Rises, through the formal elements of anime and its sound design, carefully navigates Japan’s historical and colonial tensions.     }, number={1}, journal={Southeast Asian Review of English}, publisher={Univ. of Malaya}, author={Merchant-Knudsen, Travis}, year={2020}, month={Jul}, pages={174–198} } @article{through the haze: fidelity of adaptation in paul thomas anderson’s inherent vice_2019, url={http://ellids.com/research/volumesissues/archive-2-4/2-4-merchant/}, journal={Language, Literature, and Interdisciplinary Studies}, year={2019}, month={Mar} } @article{brewer_estes_scaparo_anundson_blankenship_gentry_okamoto_plantamura_saller_wassil_2016, title={Magnificent Obsession in 13 Frames + The Darjeeling Limited in 16 Frames}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1386/fm.7.1.84_5}, DOI={10.1386/fm.7.1.84_5}, abstractNote={The Vanishing (Spoorloos, 1988) Netherlands/France Director George Sluizer Runtime 106 minutes Blu-ray/DVD USA, 2014 Produced and Distributed by The Criterion Collection (region 1) Behind the Mirror: Stephen Frears’s My Beautiful Laundrette My Beautiful Laundrette (1985) United Kingdom Director Stephen Frears Runtime 98 minutes Blu-ray United Kingdom, 2015 Produced and Distributed by The Criterion Collection (region A/1) Blue Ruin (2013) USA Director Jeremy Saulnier Runtime 90 minutes DVD USA, 2013 Distributed by Anchor Bay Entertainment (region 1) Magnificent Obsession in 13 Frames Magnificent Obsession (1954) USA Director Douglas Sirk Runtime 108 minutes DVD USA, 2009 Produced and Distributed by The Criterion Collection (region 1) The Darjeeling Limited in 16 Frames The Darjeeling Limited (2007) USA Director Wes Anderson Runtime 91 minutes DVD USA, 2010 Produced and Distributed by The Criterion Collection (region 1)}, journal={Film Matters}, author={Brewer, Reed and Estes, Leila and Scaparo, Chic and Anundson, Abigail and Blankenship, Paige and Gentry, Jackson R. and Okamoto, Brianna and Plantamura, Lydia and Saller, Chance and Wassil, Rachel}, year={2016}, month={Mar} } @article{plantamura_saller_anundson_merchant_2016, title={“Force Majeure: A Dramatic, Humorous Dissection of Family” }, volume={7}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1386/fm.7.2.50_5}, DOI={10.1386/fm.7.2.50_5}, abstractNote={Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) (2014) USA Director Alejandro González Iñárritu Runtime 119 minutes The Truly Transformative Tale of Kevin Smith Tusk (2014) USA Director Kevin Smith Runtime 104 minutes Gone Girl (2014) United States Director David Fincher Runtime 149 minutes Force Majeure: A Dramatic, Humorous Dissection of Family Force Majeure (2014) Sweden Director Ruben Östlund Runtime 119 minutes}, number={2}, journal={Film Matters}, publisher={Intellect}, author={Plantamura, Lydia and Saller, Chance and Anundson, Abigail and Merchant, Travis Richard}, year={2016}, month={Sep}, pages={50–55} } @article{merchant_2015, title={The Censorship of Art After Death: Looking at Stanley Kubrick’s History with Censorship}, volume={6}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1386/fm.6.3.60_1}, DOI={10.1386/fm.6.3.60_1}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={3}, journal={Film Matters}, publisher={Intellect}, author={Merchant, Travis Richard}, year={2015}, month={Sep}, pages={60–63} }
