"Categorized by genre, and featuring movies by master directors such as Steven Spielberg, Stanley Kubrick, Robert Altman, Frank Capra, and John Ford, as well as relative newcomers such as Chris Eyre and Christopher Nolan, Adaptations offers insight into the process of turning a short story into a screenplay, one that, when successful, doesn't take drastic liberties with the text upon which it is based, but doesn't mirror its source material too closely either."--BOOK JACKET.Notes: Also issued onlineISBN: 1400053145Contents: -- Jerry and Molly and Sam / Raymond Carver -- Blow-up / Julio Corta´zar -- Your Arkansas traveler / Budd Schulberg -- Rear window / Cornell Woolrich -- The sentinel / Arthur C.

Darren Aronofsky’s Films and the Fragility of Hope / Jadranka Skorin-Kapov New York: Bloomsbury, 2016. Available at ProQuest (RMIT login required)
Call No: 81 ARO SKOAuthor: Skorin-Kapov, Jadranka Edition: 2016Place: London; New YorkPublisher: BloomsburyPubDate: 2016PhysDes: xxxii, 184 p. : illus. ; 24 cmSubject: ARONOFSKY, DARREN ; PI (US, Darren Aronosky, 1998) ; REQUIEM FOR A DREAM (US, Darren Aronofsky, 2000) ; FOUNTAIN, THE (US, Darren Aronofsky, 2006) ; WRESTLER, THE (US, Darren Aronofsky, 2008) ; BLACK SWAN (US, Darren Aronofsky, 2010) ; NOAH (US, Darren Aronofsky, 2014) Summary: Darren Aronofsky's Films and the Fragility of Hope offers the first sustained analysis of the current oeuvre of the film director, screenwriter, and producer Darren Aronofsky. Including Pi (1998), Requiem for a Dream (2000), The Fountain (2006), The Wrestler (2008), Black Swan (2010), and Noah (2014), Aronofsky's filmography is discussed with respect to his style and the themes of his films, making astute connections with the work of other directors, other movies and works of art, and connecting his films with other disciplines such as math, philosophy, psychology, and art history.
Jadranka Skorin-Kapov deploys her background in philosophy and math to analyze an American filmmaker with an individual voice, working on both independent productions and big-budget Hollywood films. Aronofsky is revealed to be a philosopher's director, considering the themes of life and death, addiction and obsession, sacrifice, and the fragility of hope. Skorin-Kapov discusses his ability to visually present challenging intersections between art and philosophy. Concluding with a transcript of a conversation between the author and Aronofsky himself, Darren Aronofsky's Films and the Fragility of Hope is a much-needed study on this American auteur.ISBN: 9781501306976Contents: Introduction

The bestselling author David Bret traces the development of Presley's film career and recounts the on-set cat fights with co-stars and studio personnel. He unearths the truth about the powerful hold exercised over Elvis by 'Colonel' Tom Parker, which revolved around Parker preventing a leak about Presley's relationship with another man from going public and then using this knowledge as a persistant threat to ensure his protege's loyalty.
Bret explores and hotly disputes the controversial allegations, levelled by Presley's step-family, that he had sex with his mother, raped his wife, held debauched, drug fuelled parties with groupies and eventually committed suicide. Above all, the author praises the nature and talent of the man who was - and still is - the supreme authority on rock'n'roll and romance.

Beginning with a penetrating study of five cornfield sequences - including The Wizard of Oz, Arizona Dream, and Signs - Murray Pomerance journeys through a vast array of cinematic moments, technical methods, and laborious collaborations from the 1930s to the 200s to show how the viewer's experience of "reality" is put in context, challenged, and wilfully engaged. Four meditations deal with "reality effects" from different philosophical and technical angles. "Vivid Rivals" assesses active participation and critical judgement in seeing effects with works such as Defiance, Cloverfield, Knowing, and Thelma & Louise. "The Two of Us" considers double placement and doubled experience with films such as The Prestige, Niagara and A Stolen Life. "Being There" discusses cinematic performance and the problems of believability, highlighting such films as Gran Torino, The Manchurian Candidate, In Harm's Way, and other films. "Fairy Land" explores the art of scenic backing, focusing on the fictional world of Brigadoon, which borrows from both hard-edged realism and evocative landscape painting." - BOOK BLURBNotes: Contains illustrations, bibliographic references and indexISBN: 9780813560588

Feminism and documentary / Diane Waldman and Janet Walker, editors Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 1999.

ARMENIA ; DOCUMENTARIES. GERMANY ; DOCUMENTARIES. TURKEY ; FEMINISM AND THE CINEMA ; DONT LOOK BACK (US, D.A. Pennebaker, 1967) ; ARMENIAN JOURNEY, AN (US, Theodore Bogosian, 1988) ; ROGER AND ME (US, Michael Moore, 1989) ; AMERICAN DREAM (US, Barbara Kopple, 1990) Summary: Documentary and feminist film studies have long been separate or parallel universes that need to converse or collide. The essays in this volume, written by prominenet scholars and filmmakers, demonstrate the challenges that feminist perspectives pose for documentary theory, history, and practice. They also show how fuller attention to documentary enriches and complicates feminist theory, especially regarding the relationship between gender and sexuality, race and ethnicity, class and nation.
This book includes an extensive filmography and videography with useful distribution information and a bibliography of work in this neglected area of scholarship.
