Summary, etc. | Le but de cet article n’est pas de débattre de la nature commerciale ou des ressorts idéologiques des films hollywoodiens. Mon but est exégétique ou méthodologique. Je veux déplacer la critique des représentations hollywoodiennes des peuples et des cultures du Pacifique vers la manière dont ils sont, ou non, représentés comme des personnes morales, expression dont je préciserai la signification ci-dessous. Je commence par présenter le concept de personne morale dans l’anthropologie sociale et dans le travail du critique littéraire canadien Northrop Frye. Ensuite, j’examine trois films hollywoodiens : Rain (1932) et Blue Hawaii (1961) dans lesquels la personnalité morale des habitants des îles du Pacifique est réduite et marginalisée tandis que les figures des protagonistes occidentaux sont mises en avant, bien que de différentes manières. Pour finir, j’évoque le film Vaiana de Disney (2016), qui exclut totalement les personnages occidentaux, en se focalisant sur les aventures d’une jeune Polynésienne avant le contact avec les Occidentaux. Vaiana y parvient, selon moi, car c’est une comédie musicale d’animation. |
520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
Summary, etc. | The goal of this essay is not to build an argument about the commercial basis or ideological functions of Hollywood movies. My goal is exegetical or methodological. I want to shift the critique of Hollywood’s representations of Pacific peoples and cultures towards how they are and are not depicted as moral persons, the meaning of which I will detail below. I begin by introducing the concept of the moral person in social anthropology and in the work of the Canadian literary critic, Northrop Frye. I then examine three Hollywood movies, Rain (1932) and Blue Hawaii (1961) in which the moral personhood of Pacific Islanders is reduced and marginalized while Western protagonists are foregrounded, although in different ways. Lastly, I discuss Disney’s Moana (2016), a movie which excludes Western characters altogether by focusing on the adventures of a pre-contact Polynesian girl. Moana is able to do so, I propose, because it is an animated musical. |
