The word does not exist in French and it is always a pain to get the concept across.
Alors je serais curieux de connaitre ce concept !
C'est un peu comme du kitsch, mais au lieu l'objet (film, histoire, personnage, tenue…) devienne de mauvais goût, c'est volontaire, délibéré, conscient. Le cinéma de John Waters est très camp, les drag queens l'étaient à une époque je pense…
C'est très souvent une position politique, en marge, décalée, exagérée… « On » est pas loin du queer beaucoup utilisé et vu aujourd'hui. Il y a parfois un sous-texte homoérotique, mais c'est plutôt parce qu' « on » brise les clichés habituels.
Ok je pense que je vois, tu as deux ou trois autres exemples ciné ou autre sur ce domaine là ? Est ce que The Rocky Horror Picture Show peut rentrer dans ce cadre là ?
Oui, c'est plutôt camp. Y'a pas trop d'exemples récents car le style s'est largement transformé en "queer". Quelque part… Cher est ultra camp. Céline Dion maintenant aussi peut-être ? Je pense qu'elles savent complètement qu'elles font.
D'ac, merci pour les précisions ! J'apprend un truc :)
