Question

In
“Off with Hollywood’s Head: Sofia Coppola as Feminine Auteur” (2010), Todd
Kennedy argues that Sofia Coppola’s status as a contemporary auteur stems from
a notable ‘feminine aesthetic’ across all of her films. Additionally, in class,
we explored Coppola’s work in relation to queer cinema.
Drawing on pertinent examples
from the film Lost in Translation (2003), discuss:

·        
the five elements of
queer cinema as they relate to auteur theory, characterisation and the notion
of ‘camp’.
