Dr Adrian Danks, 39, is Head of Cinema Studies and teaches Cinema and Cultural
Studies in the School of Applied Communication, RMIT University. He is currently
President and co-curator of the Melbourne
Cinémathèque, and editor of CTEQ Annotations on Film. He has
published widely on the cinematic representation of place, the relationship of domestic photography to cinema, film history, film
culture, film restoration, Australian cinema, and cinematic authorship. His writing has appeared in a range of books and journals
including: Senses of Cinema, Metro, Screening the Past, RealTime, Screen Education,
1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die, Traditions in World Cinema, and Twin Peeks: Australian and New Zealand Feature
Films. He also has a particular love of filmmakers who are fond of cats. His favourite directors are: Chris Marker, Jean-Pierre Melville,
Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger, Ernst Lubitsch, Stan Brakhage, Bob Clampett, Claire Denis, Bruce Conner, Martin Scorsese,
Yasujiro Ozu, Abbas Kiarostami, Budd Boetticher, Georges Franju, Jean-Luc Godard (up to 1967), Robert Bresson, Humphrey Jennings,
Buster Keaton, Sergio Leone, Terrence Malick, Max Ophuls, Billy Wilder, Orson Welles and Wong Kar-Wai. He has an Economics degree from
the University of Melbourne (which he is still trying to live down), a Media Studies degree from RMIT, and a doctorate from LaTrobe
University. Would like Paul Meurisse or Warren Oates (though others have suggested Ed Harris) to play him in the very unlikely event
that someone wanted to make a film of his life.
