Refocus: The Films of Teuvo Tulio

An Excessive Outsider

Beschreibung

Teuvo Tulio (1912-2000) was one of the most obsessive directors in film history. As an independent producer and an increasingly reclusive personality, he developed his own, excessive brand of melodrama, haunted by irresistible temptations, obsessive desires, mad jealousies and toxic moralism. Combining cultural and historical contextualisation with formalist analysis, ReFocus: The Films of Teuvo Tulio is the first English-language study on this innovative director. Three internationally recognised scholars analyse the strange trajectory of his career through its impressive beginning within the Finnish studio system to becoming an outsider, an independent producer-director who could single-mindedly pursue his own, highly idiosyncratic line. Henry Bacon is Professor of Film and Television Studies at the University of Helsinki Kimmo Laine is Senior Lecturer at the University of Oulu. Jaakko Seppälä is Lecturer in Film and Television Studies at the University of Helsinki
