I'm looking for some writing about the device in fiction films in which a
character addresses, or apparently addresses, the audience. By
'apparently', I mean those moments, for example in Woody Allen, when a
character speaks to their analyst or is interviewed: Interiors, Husbands
and Wives, Take the Money and Run et al.
Incidentally, is their a technical term here? By 'direct address', I'm
hoping people know what I mean. Looking in Konigsberg's Film Dictionary, I
cannot find an entry, which is not to say there isn't one...
Can anyone help?
Richard
