Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

12016-06-22T10:19:36-07:00I Want Candy8image_header2016-06-24T08:39:36-07:00 The cinematographer, Lance Acord, uses fantastic montage techniques and close up shots of food in the film that support the impact of the major themes. For example, in this clip, he give a superb visual on how cakes, pastries and fruits symbolize femininity in the movie.
Moreover, the song choice is spot on. "I Love Candy" plays in the background to perpetuate the ideology that women are responsible for being desirable for men; in turn, making men "want" them sexually. The pristine and fantasy deserts are sandwiched between shots of French "haute cature" fashion. The montage and close up shots delivers a subliminal message that women should be petite, desirable, and well put together just like the array of desserts displayed flashing before the viewers eyes.
