Laura Mulvey Quotes

• In a world ordered by sexual imbalance, pleasure in looking has been split between active/male and passive/female…In their traditional exhibitionist role women are simultaneously looked at and displayed, with their appearance coded for strong visual and erotic impact so that they can be said to connote to-be-looked-at-ness

• Woman, then, stands in patriarchal culture as a signifier for the male other, bound by a symbolic order in which man can live out his fantasies and obsessions through linguistic command by imposing them on the silent image of a woman still tied to her place as the bearer of meaning, not maker of meaning.

• They are, in a sense, two sides of the same coin: women are, on the one hand, subjects of an extremely real and abject (as Julia Kristeva put it) body and denigrated sexuality; on the other, the proliferation of images, and their digitalisation produces more and more abstract and air-brushed representations of impossible female bodies. Both indicate, certainly, a "lack of progress." But, one hopes, discussions and resistance are emerging in response.

• Un cambio absolutamente crucial es que la teoría feminista del cine es hoy una materia académica que hay que estudiar y enseñar. "Placer visual y cine narrativo" fue una intervención política, influida principalmente por el Movimiento de Liberación de la Mujer y, en mi caso concreto, por un grupo de estudio de Liberación de la Mujer, en el que leímos a Freud y nos dimos cuenta de la utilidad de la teoría psicoanalítica para un proyecto feminista.

• I am not sure that there has been a "lack of progress." On the contrary, the concept of feminism is not only well established but is now also attracting interest from young women, including teenagers and pre-teens. But a new interest is also symptomatic of the failure of the feminist project and the need for its renewal.
