Summary: "The authorised biography of Luis Bunuel. Dangerous, enigmatic and elusive, Luis Bunuel counts among the greatest creative artists, and one of the least understood major film makers, of the twentieth century. His films, made over a ffity-year period, from his 1929 debut un Chien Andalou, to a late blossoming in the sixties and seventies with Belle de Jour and The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoise, still retain their power to shock. John Baxter's superb biography brings Bunuel into the light for the first time, revealing the character behind the anarchism, the sensitivity behind the cynicism, and analysing his calculated use of the bizarre." - BOOK BLURB

Subject: SURREALISM AND THE CINEMA; DALI, SALVADOR; BUNUEL, LUIS; CHIEN ANDALOU, UN (FR, Luis Bunuel, 1928)
Summary: "In 1929 Dali and Bunuel produced a seventeen-minute film, 'Un chien andalou'. On its first screening, Georges Bataille referred to it as 'that extraordinary film ... penetrating so deeply into horror', while Federico Garcia Lorca described it as 'a tiny little shit of a film'. Produced from a script said to be based on two dream images - a woman's eye slit by a razor, ants emerging from a hole in a man's hand - the film shocked audiences. It continues to fascinate, provoke, attract and alienate its viewers. Its eye-slitting sequence and use of dream like images have influenced filmmakers from Alfred Hitchcock to David Lynch. Elza Adamowicz's lucid critical guide to this most enigmatic of works offers new approaches to the film, exploring how it can be seen both within and beyond the confines of Surrealism and reviewing its openness to so many readings and interpretations. She reassesses Dali and Bunuel's account of the film as a model of surrealist work and its reception by the surrealist group. She situates the film within the social and cultural contexts of the 1920s, including those of melodramatic film, Spanish culture, surrealist iconography and gender construction. She assesses the film's resistance to a single interpretation and explores the role of the viewer (detective or dreamer?)."-BOOK BLURB

Summary: In Dark Laughter, Juan F. Egea provides a remarkable in-depth analysis of the dark comedy film genre in spain, as well as a provocative critical engagement with the idea of national cinema, the visual dimension of cultural specificity, and the ethics of dark humor. Egea begins his analysis with General Fanco's dictatorship in the 1960s- aregime that openedthe country to new economic forces while maintaining its repressivr nature- exploring key works by Luis Garcia Berlanga, Marco Ferreri, Fernando Fernan-Gomez, and Luis Bunuel. Dark Laughterthen moves to the first films of Pedro Almodovar in the early 1980s during the spanish political transition to democracy before examinig Alex de la Iglesia and the new dark comedies of the 1990s...At its core Dark Laughter is a substantial inquiry into the epistemology of comedy, the intricacies of visual modernity, and the relationship between cinema and a wider framework of representational practices. -- [Extract taken from the back of the book]

Summary: "Not all documentary films and videos are sober depictions of the real world. Documentary representations can present expressive, entertaining and spectacular images. This book examines such innovative approaches as they occur within the process of 'documentary display' - a practice which emphasises the visual attractions of documentary representation. Works of documentary display explore modes of exhibitionistic 'showing' in which sensation is frequently the vehicle of cognition and knowledge. Such a display is analysed within the popular and prominent forms of found-footage film, 'rockumentary', the city film, nonfiction surf film and video, and certain views of natural science topics. This accessible and informed study - with its focus on entertaining, popular, spectacular and sensational froms of nonfiction representation - makes an important contribution to theoretical analyses of documentary film and video."--BOOK JACKET

William Rothman analyzes the philosophical and historical issues and themes implicit in these works. Designed to guide film students through the 'texts' of films that span the history of the documentary film movement, his readings also focus on the achievements of these works as films per se. This book is both an original contribution to the field of film studies and also suitable for use as a text for college level courses on documentary film and broader film history courses." -- BOOK COVER

Summary: Documenting the Documentary features essays by twenty-seven film scholars from a wide range of critical and theoretical perspectives. Each essay focuses on one or two important documentaries, engaging in questions surrounding ethics, ideology, politics, power, race, gender, and representation -- but always in terms of how they arise out of or are involved in the reading of specific documentaries as particular textual constructions. By closely reading documentaries as rich visual works, this anthology fills a void in the critical writing on documentaries, which tends to privilege production over aesthetic pleasure. As we perceive and comprehend the world through visual media increasingly, understanding the textual strategies by which individual documentaries are organized has become critically important. Together, the essays cover the significant developments in the history of the documentary, from the first commercially released feature, Nanook of the North (1922), to modern independent productions, such as An American Family (1973), Tongues Untied (1989), and Finding Christa (1991), and including important national and stylistic movements and various production contexts from the mainstream to the avant-garde. Seth Feldman places Dziga Vertov's Man with a Movie Camera (1929) within the context of constructivism and futurism; Vivian Sobchack discusses the strategies of Bunuel's Las Hurdas (Land without Bread, 1931) in relation to surrealism; and Joanne Hershfield explores Que viva Mexico! (1932) as the presentation of an exotic culture by a European director. Documenting the Documentary offers clear, serious, and insightful analyses of documentary films, and is a welcome balancebetween theory and criticism, abstract conceptualization and concrete analysis. --FROM PUBLISHER'S SITE

Summary: Does the making of films – a group activity – permit anything that can be called self-expression? Can a director, as the conductor of an orchestra of writers, actors, cameramen and technicians, stamp his personal vision on the films he makes? This and related questions are raised by this collection of statements made by famous directors about their art. Harry Geguld’s anthology of “patristic writings” runs from the days (in 1895) when Louis Lumiere filmed a train entering a station, by way of Charlie Chaplin’s knockabout ad-libbing, to the sophisticated ruminations of Antonioni and Bergman and the ideas behind the nouvelle vague. Here is D.W. Griffith’s scouting the very idea of talking pictures; Mack Sennett on custard pies; Eisenstein on three-dimensional film; Cocteau on the raw materials of illusion; Kurosawa on filming in Japan; Hitchcock on the macabre; and some other twenty leading directors on aspects of their work. In his introduction, Harry Geguld assesses the unique characteristics of motion pictures and comments refreshingly on the eternal controversy of “book into film”. [Taken from back cover.]

Summary: Imagining Reality takes the reader on a tour of the evolution of documentary film as an increasingly vibrant, polemical, experimental and entertaining form. It gathers a wide-ranging collection of writings by and about such groundbreaking documentary-makers as Vertov, Flaherty, Marcel Ophuls, Chris Marker, Kieslowski, Claude Lanzmann, and Nick Broomfield. The story is carried up to date by attention to the success documentaries have had among mainstream movie audiences in recent years, including Michael Moore's Bowling For Columbine and Fahrenheit 9/11, The Buena Vista Social Club, Spellbound, Capturing The Friedmans, Être Et Avoir, and The Fog Of War. --TAKEN FROM PUBLISHER'S SITE

Summary: Manny Farber, one of the most important and entertaining critics in movie history, championed the American action film - the bravado of Howard Hawks, the art brut styling of Samuel Fuller, the crafty, sordid entertainments of Don Siegel - at a time when other critics dismissed the genre. His witty, incisive criticism later worked exacting language into an exploration of the feelings and strategies that went into low-budget and radical films as diverse as Michael Snow's Wavelength, Werner Herzog's Fata Morgana, and Shantal Akerman's Jeanne Dielman. Expanded with an in-depth interview and seven essays written in collaboration with his wife, artist Patricia Patterson, Negative Space gathers Farber's most influential writings, making this an indispensable collection for all lovers of film

Summary: Los Olvidados (1950) established Luis Buñuel’s reputation as a world-class director. Set in the slums of Mexico City, it follows the crime-filled and violent lives of a group of juvenile delinquents. The film exhibits some of Buñuel’s trademark themes – unrequited love, social injustice and surrealism – but with a layer of compassion that sets it apart from many of his other films. In 2003, Los Olvidados was inducted into UNESCO’s Memory of the World programme, which preserves documentary heritage of world significance. Mark Polizzotti explores the historical context, aesthetic importance ad biographical significance of the film, providing the first complete overview of Los Olvidados in English. He also presents an introduction to the Mexican film industry and places Buñuel and his films within it. While many critics have taken Los Olvidados as a film about urban poverty, Mark Polizzotti sees it as a much more personal and mysterious statement about yearning, loss and the need for redemption. By taking the notion of hunger as its structural principle, he explores the themes of betrayal, desire and death that make the film such a powerful statement more than fifty years after its release.
