Abstract | As eco-criticism moves in the mainstream of film studies, questions remain about the relationship between ecological film representations and audience understanding. Addressing definitional tensions within eco-film research, this article argues that eco-criticism can be pragmatically grounded in terms of eco-film's pedagogical pertinence for specific audiences. Through guided film viewing and student focus groups, the article explores how the Irish film, "Eat the Peach" (Ormrod, 1986), can be used to provoke reflection on the ecological impact of human imperatives toward economic development and personal fulfillment. The findings highlight how local narratives elucidate conflicting cultural values and attitudes toward the environment. (As Provided). |
