KOREA ; CLASS AND THE CINEMA. KOREA Summary: "This book examines the role of the Korean film as a cultural text of Koreans in both the North and the South, and focuses on the conflicting self-identities of a people still strongly committed to their cultural traditions despite political divisions. The book defines the significance of film-making and film-viewing in Korean society. It covers the introduction of motion pictures in Korea inn 1903 ... up to the 1990s. It introduces the works of Korea's major directors, and analyses the Korean film industry in terms of film production, distribution and reception. Based on this historical analysis, the study investigates ideological constructs in seventeen films, eight from North Korea and nine South Korea."Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.

Her films, including 'Chocolat', 'Beau travail' and 'White Material' explore connections between national experience and individual circumstance, visualising the complications of such dualities. Following a foreword by Wim Wenders, international contributors explore the themes she addresses in her films, such as kinship and landscape, neo-colonialism and New French Extremity. Original interviews with an editor, actor and two composers familiar with Denis's working style and with Denis herself, also reveal fresh facets of this intrepid filmmaker." - BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes list of illustrations, bibliographic references and indexISBN: 9781848859548Contents: --List of illustrations -- Notes on contributors -- Preface -- Foreword: 'Klarchen'

But today's culture critics see in the decade a period when heterosexual/homosexual dualism came to dominate the representation of American masculinity. Masked Men documents how movies of the 1950s represented masculinity as a multiple masquerade. Hollywood depicted the sexual anxieties of the domesticated breadwinner, the repudiation of wartime homoerotic male bonding, the exhibitionism of muscular bodies, the transvestic connotations of boyishness, and the playboy bachelor apartment. These presentations challenged the postwar ideal of the typical American male, that omnipresent and seemingly invisible Man in a Gray Flannel SuitNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p.

In this definitive study, Leo Braudy tells the complicated story of the film’s production. He revisits the facts behind the controversy of Kazan’s infamous ‘naming of names’ during the McCarthy communist trials of the 1950s. But above all this is an analysis of the enduring appeal of On the Waterfront: the method inspired acting, the music and cinematography, the use of authentic locations and its powerfully symbolic depiction of post-war American values.

Paula Rabinowitz discusses the ways in which these four media shaped truth-claims and political agency over the decades: in the 1930s about poverty, labor and popular culture during the depression; in the 1960s, about the Vietnam War, racism, work and the counterculture; and in the 1980s, about feminist and gay critiques of gender, history, narrative and cinema...Rabinowitz argues that the gendering ov vision that occurs when narratives conform to conventional genres profoundly affects the relation of documentarian to subject. She goes on to define this gendering of vision in documentary as an ethnographic process. Ultimately, this polemical study challenges the construction of the spectato in psychoanalytic film theory, and articulates a new model for theorizing power relations in culture and history." -- taken from back cover.Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 221-251) and indexISBN: 1859849253; 1859840256 (pbk.)LON: bnc85984925; 11201643URL status: URL: 'http://-'

IN a series of witty and provcative investigations of American popular culture, Fred Pfeil exposes the contradictions in the construction of what heterosexual masculinity over the last fifteen years. White Guys proves such topics as the rock'n'roll bodies of Bruce Springsteen, Axl Rose, and the late Kurt Cobain; the 'male rampage' films Die Hard and Lethal Weapon and the films of 'sensitive transpormation' that followed in their wake; and the curious yet symptomatic activities of the men's movement whose 'rituals' Pfeil has investigated firsthand.
Pfeil's aim is to reveal the ambiguity and flux in a social category too often assumed to be monolithic and unchanging. White Guys invites its readers to consider the shifts in mainstream masculinity's representation, in relation to the general emergence of postmodern 'tribalisms' and in the context of changes in both contemporary feminism and the global economy." -- BOOK COVERISBN: 1859849377 : ¦39.95; 1859840329 (pbk.) : ¦12.99LON: bnc85984937; 11499168Contents: From Pillar to Postmodern: Race, Class, and Gender in the Male Rampage Film -- The Year of Living Sensitively -- Rock Incorporated: Plugging in to Axl and Bruce -- Soft-Boiled Dicks -- Guerillas in the Mist: Wild Guys and New Age Tribes -- Chips off the Old Block

With contributions from a diverse group of scholars, the chapters analyze issues that include gender, sexuality, disability, class, and race. The contributors pose intriguing questions about the franchise, such as: What do “mutants” really represent? What role do women and people of color play in the narratives? Why does it matter that Professor X is disabled? Why is Mystique often shown naked? What facilitated Wolverine’s rise to prominence? And how do topics regarding identity, trauma, and bioethics, figure in the stories? Exploring issues relevant for a multicultural world and connecting thematic elements from the films to political debates and social struggles, the book seeks to make a thoughtful contribution to the scholarship of popular culture. The X-Men Films will appeal to media scholars and students, as well as to anyone interested in the X-Men series." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9781442265332Contents: -- acknowledgments -- introduction / Claudia Bucciferro -- part I Utopian and Immersive Experiences -- 1: Mutopia: American Utopianism and the Mutant Superhero / Matt Yockey -- 2: The Immersive Marketing Campaign for X-Men: Days of Future Past / Nicolo Gallio -- part: II Agency and Authority -- 3: Superhuman Authority: Fascism and Bioethics in the X-Men Films / Evan Hayles Gledhill -- 4: Magneto's Dilemma: The Technological Limitations of Mutant Transhumanism / Ron Von Burg and D.
