Deconstruction of the semantics of musical quotations in the film The house that Jack built by Lars von Trier
Abstract
The study is devoted to the deconstruction of the semantics of musical quotations in the film The House That Jack Built (2018) by the outstanding Danish director L. von Trier. A comprehensive analysis of the film text is based on the ideas of deconstruction by the French philosopher J. Derrida, as well as on the author’s method of Trier – digressionism (cinematograph of digressions). The result of the interaction of complex intertextual links between the open film text of The House That Jack Built and other texts of culture was the emergence of the so-called ‘third meanings’. To achieve this goal, Trier resorts to various methods of working with extensive musical and visual quotation material. Quotations acquire new meanings and translate them to the video using the means of film language (vertical montage, montage of attractions, sound-visual counterpoint, representation of time) and the method of deconstruction (destruction, reconstruction, deformation, self-quotations).
