In considering Jane Campion's early awardwinning short films on through international sensation The Piano and beyond, Kathleen McHugh traces the director's distinctive visual style as well as her commitment to consistently renovating the conventions of 'women's films.' By refusing to position her female protagonists as victims, McHugh argues, Campion scrupulously avoids the moral structures of melodrama, and though she often works with the narratives, miseenscene, and visual tropes typical of that genre, her films instead invite a distanced or even amused engagement.Jane Campion concludes with four brief, revelatory interviews and a filmography. Campion spoke twice with Michel Cimentafter the screening of her short and mediumlength films at the Cannes Film Festival 1986, and three years later, after the Cannes screening of Sweetie. Judith Lewis narrates a Beverly Hills interview with Campion that followed the release of Holy Smoke, and Lizzie Francke's interview, reprinted from Sight and Sound,centers on Campion's film In the Cut, adapted from Susanna Moore's novel.A volume in the series Contemporary Film Directors, edited by James R.
