Summary: "New Documentary: A Critical Introduction provides a contemporary look at documentary and fresh and challenging ways of theorising the non-fiction film. This engaging textbook brings the study of documentary up to date by examining critical issues of performance, gender, authorship and spectatorship and suggests how these are important to an understanding of documentary cinema. Areas addressed include: key texts such as Zapruder's film of Kennedy's Assassination, Shoah, The Leader, His Driver and the Driver's Wife and the Atomic Cafe; the works of filmmakers such as Emile de Antonio, Chris Marker, Nicholas Barker, Nick Broomfield, Molly Dineen and Patrick Kieller; an analysis of the key aspects of documentary such as the use of voice-over and archive, American cinema verite, docusoaps and political image-making; an innovative examination of the importance of performance to documentary; interviews with contemporary documentary filmmakers." -- BOOK BLURB
