Notes
1. The primary example in this respect is Dance Me to My Song (Citation1998), which was the work of the late disabled writer and actress Heather Rose. See also Coming Home (Citation1978), The Sessions (Citation2012) and The Theory of Flight (Citation1998).
2. On performativity, see Judith Butler (Citation1990/1999); I have argued for an analysis of cinematic narratives on the basis of performativity in Aristotelis Nikolaidis (Citation2011).
3. Rust and Bone (Citation2012), 01.28.02–01.28.50, my translation.
