I will focus on how the camera looks with, as well as looks at, these two children within their respective fantastic contexts. While Ludo’s interior fantasies (including his own fabricated characters) are projected unproblematically onto a public screen, in <i>Ricky</i>, the camera views the titular bird-baby as an object, his hybridity digitally recorded via cell phone, creating a sort of fictional history. <i>Ma vie en rose</i> and <i>Ricky</i> thus present films within films, this sort of <i>mise en abyme</i> emphasizing the fantastic nature of these two children. 2015-07-28 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1437945373 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1437945373 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
