“I NEEDED A WOMAN LIKE YOU, MRS. PEEL, A WOMAN OF—COURage, of beauty, of action—a woman who could become desperate and yet remain strong, a woman who could become confused, and yet remain intelligent, a woman who could fight back, and yet remain feminine—and you and only you, Emma Peel, had all these qualifications.” In these words Z. Z. Von Schnerk, “director, writer, producer and film maker extraordinary,” explains to Emma Peel in “Epic,” an episode from the 1960s British television series The Avengers, why he has captured her in his studio and made her into the protagonist of what he intends to become his masterpiece. The film is to be a horror movie in the style of 1960s sexploitation, and of Roger Corman’s early grindhouse films, and is to end with Emma’s violent death. This article’s position with regard to the ideal female superhero will turn out to be fairly close to that of the opprobrious Von Schnerk; however, his suspicion of sexism will be deconstructed as well.

像你这样的女人?艾玛·皮尔、西娜:勇士公主、银幕女英雄赋能

“我需要一个像你这样的女人,夫人。皮尔,一个勇敢、美丽、行动的女人——一个可以变得绝望但仍然坚强的女人,一个可以变得困惑但仍然聪明的女人,一个可以反击但仍然保持女性化的女人——以及你,只有你,艾玛·皮尔,拥有所有这些资格。” ZZ Von Schnerk,“非凡的导演、作家、制片人和电影制作人”用这些话向艾玛皮尔解释了“史诗”中的一集,这是 1960 年代英国电视连续剧“复仇者联盟”的一集,为什么他在他的工作室里捕捉到了她并让她成为成为他打算成为他的杰作的主角。这部电影将是一部 1960 年代性剥削风格的恐怖电影,也是罗杰科曼早期的磨坊电影,并以艾玛的暴力死亡告终。这篇文章关于理想女性超级英雄的立场将证明与可耻的冯·施纳克的立场相当接近;然而,他对性别歧视的怀疑也将被解构。
