CFP:    Special Issue of Film Criticism
         Complex Narratives--due January 15, 2006

Complex Narratives
Papers are invited for a special issue of Film Criticism devoted to recent 
complex narratives. Since Pulp Fiction, numerous films have employed 
complicated story/plot structures to various ends. Manuscripts should focus 
on either analysis of individual examples or the phenomenon as a whole. All 
published essays will, however, do more than describe complex narratives. 
They will also explain causes for this trend and/or contribute to existing 
critical approaches for analyzing these narratives. All critical methods 
are encouraged. Queries should be directed to the guest editor, Janet 
Staiger: jstaiger <uts.cc.utexas.edu>.
Deadline for submission: January 15, 2006
Manuscripts should be in MLA format, 15-20 pages in length
Please send one copy and disc (Word format is preferred) to:
Janet Staiger
Department of Radio-Television-Film (CMA 6.128)

Founded in 1976, Film Criticism recently completed its twenty-eighth year 
of continuous publication, making it the third oldest academic film journal 
in the country. FC has published the work of such international scholars as 
Dudley Andrew, David Bordwell, David Cook, Robin Wood, Janet Staiger, Ann 
Kaplan, Andrew Horton, Wheeler Winston Dixon, Marcia Landy, and Peter 
Lehman. Equally important, we continue to present the very best writing 
from a new generation of film historians, theorists, and critics 
representing many different disciplines, cultures, and critical 
perspectives. "The critical analysis found in the essay-length articles is 
of a particularly high quality... Researchers will profit from the 
excellent book review section " (Katz's Magazines for Libraries). In 
addition, Film Criticism regularly publishes single-theme issues, extensive 
interviews, and festival reports.  The journal is peer-reviewed.
