“My gaze is definitely a convention. It’s been done and redone. In a way, it is easier to talk about the male gaze. The female gaze is a departure from that and I think it can be achieved by both men and women filmmakers. Just because you’re female does not mean that you automatically have a female gaze. You have to deconstruct and learn to invent. I hope we are collaborating to achieve this revolutionary gaze” (Céline Sciamma)
Concepts to Discuss:
gaze as convention
the gaze as departure
deconstructing a gaze
revolutionary gaze
The female gaze is also a grammar that develops within the film; by the time of that scene, we respect this character. This is an image among many other images. You can show nudity, and maybe I could have shown graphic sex, but it still would have felt okay to be in the room with them because it is not at all voyeuristic. It is also about how the images are a dialogue and how you build trust with the audience. In that scene their being naked is just a fact. We take pleasure in the fact that they’re naked because we share their intimacy. The female gaze is mostly about sharing the experience of the character and having a very active gaze because when women are objectified, the gaze is reactive. (Céline Sciamma)
Concepts to discuss:
the gaze as grammar
images in dialogue
voyeurism
active gaze
reactive gaze
“Portrait of a Lady on Fire” is, among other things, a story of profound female solidarity, but it almost never feels like it’s hat-tipping to modern-day gender politics or casting feminist talking points in sepia tone. Instead, Sciamma allows sisterhood to bloom organically out of the setting’s austere traditionalism.” (Rachel Syme)
