Final Reminder
Kathryn Bigelow: A Visionary Director
University of Wolverhampton in collaboration with Light House Media Centre
Thursday July 11th 2019 at Light House Media Centre, Wolverhampton
Keynotes: Dr Deborah Jermyn, University of Roehampton and Dr Stella Hockenhull, University of Wolverhampton
Film director Kathryn Bigelow is the first female filmmaker to win an Academy Award for Best Director, controversially achieving it for The Hurt Locker (2008) over James Cameron’s Avatar (2009). The Hurt Locker went on to win six Academy Awards in total and achieved widespread critical acclaim, although it is Zero Dark Thirty, released in 2012, that is Bigelow’s most successful film commercially. The papers here respond to Bigelow’s vision and examine various aspects of her burgeoning film career, marked more recently by Detroit (2017). We welcome you to our second annual Film Directors Conference at Light House on 11th July.
