Hollywood economics : how extreme uncertainty shapes the film industry / Arthur De Vany New York: Routledge, 2005.
Call No: 203 DEVAuthor: De Vany, Arthur Source: UK/USPlace: London; New YorkPublisher: RoutledgePubDate: 2005PhysDes: 308 p. : 23 cm.Series: Contemporary Political EconomySubject: ECONOMICS AND THE CINEMA. USA ; HOLLYWOOD ; BUSINESS AND THE CINEMA ; GLOBALISATION ; INDUSTRY, FILM ; DE VANEY, ARTHUR Summary: Just how risky is the movie industry? Is screenwriter William Goldman’s claim that “nobody knows anything” really true? Can a star and a big opening change a movie’s risks and return? Do studio executives really earn their huge paychecks? These and many other questions are answered in Hollywood Economics. The book uses powerful analytical models to uncover the wild uncertainty that shapes the industry. The centerpiece of the analysis is the unpredictable and often chaotic dynamic behavior of motion picture audiences. This unique and important book will be of interest to students and researchers involved in the economics of movies, industrial economics and business studies. The book will also be a real eye-opener for film-writers, movie executives, finance and risk management professionals as well as more general movie fans.

Merchants of Menace: The Business of Horror Cinema responds to a major void in film history by shedding much-needed new light on the economic dimensions of one of the world's most enduring audiovisual forms. Given horror cuts across budgetary categories, industry sectors, national film cultures, and media, Merchants of Menace also promises to expand understandings of the economics of cinema generally. Covering 1930-present, this groundbreaking collection boasts fourteen original chapters from world-leading experts taking as their focus such diverse topics as early zombie pictures, post-WWII chillers, Civil Rights-Era marketing, Hollywood literary adaptations, Australian exploitation, "torture-porn" Auteurs, and twenty-first-century remakes." - Publisher's WebsiteNotes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references and index; Also issued onlineISBN: 9781623564209Contents: -- Production lines, trends, and cycles.
