Boro, L'Ile D'Amour : the Films of Walerian Borowczyk / edited by Kamila Kuc, Kuba Mikurda, and Michael Oleszczyk London: Berghahn Books,
Call No: 81 BOR BOREdition: 2015Place: New York; LondonPublisher: Berghahn BooksPhysDes: 212 p. ; illus. ; 23cmSubject: BOROWCZYK, WALERIAN ; GOTO L'ILE D'AMOUR (FR, Walerian Borowczyk, 1968) ; BLANCHE (FR, Walerian Borowczyk, 1971) ; BETE, LA (FR, Walerian Borowczyk, 1975) Notes: There has been a recent revival of interest in the work of Polish film director Walerian Borowczyk, a label-defying auteur and “escape artist” if there ever was one. This collection serves as an introduction and a guide to Borowczyk’s complex and ambiguous body of work, including panoramic views of the director’s output, focused studies of particular movies, and more personal, impressionistic pieces. Taken together, these contributions comprise a wide-ranging survey that is markedly experimental in character, allowing scholars to gain insight into previously unnoticed aspects of Borowczyk’s oeuvre. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781782387015Contents: CONTENTS

Unquiet Dreams : The Bestiary of Walerian Borowczyk / By Simon Strong [Collingwood, Victoria]: The LedaTape Organisation,
Call No: 81 BOR STRAuthor: Strong, Simon Edition: 2015Place: [Collingwood, Victoria]Publisher: The LedaTape OrganisationPhysDes: 134 pages ; illustrations (black and white, and colour) ; 24cmSubject: BOROWCZYK, WALERIAN ; BETE, LA (FR, Walerian Borowczyk, 1975) ; GOTO L'ILE D'AMOUR (FR, Walerian Borowczyk, 1968) ; BLANCHE (FR, Walerian Borowczyk, 1971) ; DZIEJE GRZECHU (PL, Walerian Borowczyk, 1975) ; EMMANUELLE (FR, Just Jaeckin, 1974) ; BESTIALITY ; BELLE ET LA BETE, LA (FR, Jean Cocteau, 1946) ; Dauman, Anatole Notes: Walerian Borowczyk was far and away the classiest of sleazy film-makers, and the sleaziest of the classy ones. Starting as an animator and director of visually rich kafkaesque fantasies (Blanche, Goto, Island of Love) he divided audiences by moving into graphic erotica (Immoral Tales, The Beast) and subsequently worked his way through exploitation tropes (nunsploitation, Jeksploitation, togasploitation) before creatively imploding spectacularly with his bizarre contribution to the Emmanuelle series.
Inspired in look and feel by seventies film and filth mags like Continental Film Review and Sex Stars System, the present author does not much value coherence or consistency. He is interested in contexts and connections, obscure minutiae, jokes (he will judge what is funny), and blurry screen grabs of topless women from seventies softcore flicks. Whilst not ideal, it's better than nothing. Probably. You figure it out. -- Back cover blurbISBN: 9780992302160Donation: Donated by The LedaTape Organisation (Collingwood)
