영문 초록

This essay aims to discuss how the camera-eye operates in the visual culture by focusing on the notions such as voyeurism, surveillance and dataveillance. W ith the discussion of the suturing and de-suturing functions of the camera-eye, it also aims to argue how the camera-eye can reappropriate or subvert the routine gaze of the ordinary life by analyzing the effect of Rick's camcorder in American Beauty. In fact, the images of Rick's camcorder evoke the Brechtian notion of alienation effect in the sense that they reveal what is not intended to see from our ordinary life. Especially, the plastic bag scene of the film shows us "something so profound in the simple beauty of the moment." Placed as "any-space-whatever" in the filmic narrative, this scene is open to the possibility of the pure thinking on time. It also reveals the meta-filmic possibility of presenting the singular beauty by replacing the filmmaking professionalism with an experiment of the handy cam, as Francis Coppola foretold.
