"L'avventura", "La notte" and "L'eclisse" form the trilogy that first brought the director to international attention. "Red Desert" was his first film in colour. "Blow Up", shot in English and set in swinging London, became one of the best-known (and notorious) films of its era. "The Passenger", starring Jack Nicholson, is the greatest work of Antonioni's maturity. Rather than emphasising the angst and alienation of Antonioni's characters, Peter Brunette places the films in the context of the director's ongoing social and political analysis of the Italy of the great postwar economic boom and demonstrates how they depend on painterly abstraction for their expressive efforts.[Taken from back cover]ISBN: 0521389925

Call No: 62 BRUAuthor: Brunette, Peter ; Wills, David Source: USPlace: Princeton, New JerseyPublisher: Princeton University PressPubDate: 1989PhysDes: 224 pages : illustrations ; 24 cmSeries: Princeton Legacy LibrarySubject: DERRIDA, JACQUES ; BRIDE WORE BLACK, THE [MARIEE ETAIT EN NOIR] (FR, Francios Truffaut, 1968) ; BLUE VELVET (US, David Lynch, 1986) Summary: "Peter Brunette and David Wills extend the work of Jacques Derrida into a new realm with rewarding consequences. Although Derrida has never addressed film theory directly in his writings, Brunette and Wills argue that the ideas he has developed in his critique of the logocentric foundations of Western thought, especially his notion of "Writing," can be usefully applied to film theory and analysis. They maintain that such an application might even begin to shift film from its traditional position within the visual arts to a new place in the media and information sciences. This book also supplies a fascinating introduction to Derrida for the general reader." - taken from back coverNotes: Includes bibliographic references and indexISBN: 0691008469Contents: Preface -- CHAPTER ONE.
