GOODBAR (US, Richard Brooks, 1977) ; SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER (US, John Badham, 1977) Summary: "Hard Hats, Rednecks, and Macho Men examines a wide range of American films from the 1970s and argues that their persistent depictions of white, working-class masculinity provided a powerful class fantasy, one that spoke to middle-class anxieties provoked by the period's social and political upheavals. Drawing on iconic films from the era Nystrom presents an incisive, evocative study of labor, class, and American cinema in the wake of Vietnam, women's and gay liberation, the rise of the New Right, and other events that defined the decade" - TAKEN FROM BACK COVERISBN: 9780195336771Donation: donated by Senses of Cinema, 2012Contents: Introduction.

Here are some of the stimulating - and occasionally surprising - answers to that question. This book is a follow-up to The Classic American Novel and the Movies, which ended in 1929, but it can be read on its own. [This book] covers novels and films from the 1930s to the 1970s, from Erskine Caldwell's Tobacco Road to James Dickey's Deliverance. In between, many film translations of notable novels are scrutinized - works by such authors as Faulkner, Hemingway, Steinbeck, McCullers, Nabokov, Updike, Kesey, and Vonnegut [...] Style, characterisation, theme, and ideology come under review. And we get behind-the-scenes insights into the actual filming of some celebrated novels. Of special value to scholars and students of film: extended filmographies by both author and film title of adaptations of American novels published between 1930 and 1975. In addition, there is a bibliography covering the same period, plus complete rental information on the films themselves." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes index; Filmography: p. 349-428; Bibliography: p. 429-443; Sequel/companion to The Classic American Novel and the Movies, also in the CollectionISBN: 0804426821 : $14.50. 0804466491 pbk. : $6.95LON: 78004373; 1250638
