	FFAR 250: Joanne Larue: Essays on Quebec Cinema

		It was during this time of discontent that Québéc francophone cinema became québéccois and, while searching for cultural reality, began to exercise greater influence as a central icon in the search for ethnic identification.

		While both films had significant success, critical debate focused on the authenticity of their evocation of the issues of identity, the past and history, and isolation that are a common thread in much Quebec cinema.
		The idea that Quebec does not have a history is itself historicized by a narrative that centres on a lack of freedom.
		It is impossible both because it violates the norm of classical narrative cinema that the camera should not call attention to itself and because it is physically detached from Elisabeth's point of view.

		Surveying mostly fictional feature films, Marshall demonstrates how Quebec cinema has evolved from the innovative direct cinema of the early 1960s into the diverse canvas of popular comedies, glossy co-productions, and reworked auteur cinema of the postmodern 1990s.
		He explores the faultlines of Quebec identity - its problematic and contradictory relationship with France, the question of Native peoples, the influence of the cosmopolitan and pluralist city of Montreal, and the encounters between sexuality, gender, and nation traced and critiqued in women's and queer cinemas.
		In the first comprehensive, theoretically informed work in English on Quebec cinema, Marshall views his subject as neither the assertion of some unproblematic national wholeness nor a random collection of disparate voices that drown out or invalidate the question of nation.

		Based on the premise that there is a dearth of scientifically presented historical material on Quebec cinema, this work – prepared by grafics – seeks to fill that lacuna.
		Inevitably, chapter 7 details the censorship that brought about the label ‘country of the enemies of cinema.’ The role of L.-J. Lemieux as first president of the severe Bureau of Censorship of Motion Pictures of the Province of Quebec is carefully delineated.
		Thus, the label earned by Quebec as the enemy of cinema (one given by Russia) was not a fair one, as is proved by all this activity, production, and attendance in the province.

		For example, the fact that the story is set in the woods, away from the city and the bleak Montréal setting, led Godard to note that the film is an "exploration of the northern forest within us all" (34).
		In her article on National Cinema, Susan Barrowclough writes that certain Québec films have a tendency to overemphasize "the real", and in so doing, exclude a "fictional questioning of that reality" (206).
