Alfred Hitchcock : the legacy of Victorianism / Paula Marantz Cohen Lexington, Ky.: University Press of Kentucky, 1995. Call No: 81HIT COH Author: Marantz Cohen, Paula, 1953 Place: Lexington, Ky. Publisher: University Press of Kentucky PubDate: 1995 PhysDes: 198 p., [8] p. of plates : ill. ; 24 cm Subject: HITCHCOCK, ALFRED Summary: This provocative study traces Alfred Hitchcock's long directorial career from Victorianism to postmodernism. Drawing on a number of methodologies including feminism, psychoanalysis, and family systems, the author provides an insightful look at the paradox of a Victorian era. His career, she argues, can be seen as an attempt to balance "the two faces of Victorianism": the masculine legacy of law and hierarchy and the feminine legacy of feeling and imagination. Also central to her thesis is the Victorian model of the nuclear family and its permutations, especially the father-daughter dyad. She postulates a fundamental dynamic in Hitchcock's films, what she calls a "daughter's effect," and relates it to the social role of the family as an institution and to Hitchcock's own relationship with his daughter, Patricia, who appeared in three of his films; Cohen argues that Hitchcock's films reflect his Victorian legacy and serve as a map for ideological trends. She charts his development from his British period through his classic Hollywood years into his later phase, tracing a conceptual evolution that corresponds to an evolution in cultural identity - one that builds on a Victorian inheritance and ultimately discards it Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. [169]-187) and index ISBN: 0813119308 (alk. paper); 0813108500 LON: 11443160

Alfred Hitchcock : registrar of births and deaths in Hitchcock annual (1997-98) p.3-18 Author: Sterritt, David PhysDes: Serial Subject: HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; FAMILY PLOT (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1976) Summary: This essay employs biographical information about Hitchcock along with ideas from intertexual theory, Michel Chion's theorization of cinematic sound, and Zizek's contribution to Lacanian psychoanalysis. It suggests that Hitchcock's investment in religious thinking has a value in Hitchockian hermeneutics, and analyzes thematic concerns such as guilt and confession.

Audio-vision : sound on screen / Michel Chion; foreword by Walter Murch; edited and translated by Claudia Gorbman New York: Columbia University Press, 2019. Call No: 634 CHI Author: Chion, Michel Edition: 2019 Place: New York Publisher: Columbia University Press PubDate: 2019 PhysDes: xxiii, 270 pages : illustrated ; 23cm Subject: SOUND; GODARD, JEAN-LUC; HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; MUSIC AND THE CINEMA; MUSIC IN FILMS; RESNAIS, ALAIN; ROBBE-GRILLET, ALAIN; WELLES, ORSON; Wenders, Wim; DOLCE VITA, LA (FR/IT, Federico Fellini, 1960); PERSONA (SW, Ingmar Bergman, 1966); PSYCHO (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1960); TYSTNADEN (SW, Ingmar Bergman, 1963) Summary: Michel Chion’s landmark Audio-Vision has exerted significant influence on our understanding of sound-image relations since its original publication in 1994. Chion argues that sound film qualitatively produces a new form of perception. Sound in audiovisual media does not merely complement images. Instead, the two channels together engage audio-vision, a special mode of perception that transforms both seeing and hearing. We don’t see images and hear sounds separately—we audio-view a trans-sensory whole.
In this updated and expanded edition, Chion considers many additional examples from recent world cinema and formulates new questions for the contemporary media environment. He takes into account the evolving role of audio-vision in different theatrical environments, considering its significance for music videos, video art, commercial television, and the internet, as well as conventional cinema. Chion explores how multitrack digital sound enables astonishing detail, extending the space of the action and changing practices of scene construction. He demonstrates that speech is central to film and television and shows why “audio-logo-visual” is a more accurate term than “audiovisual.” Audio-Vision shows us that sound is driving the creation of a sensory cinema.
This edition includes a glossary of terms, a chronology of several hundred significant films, and the original foreword by sound designer, editor, and Oscar honoree Walter Murch. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9780231185899 Contents: Foreword (1994), by Walter Murch -- Preface -- Part I.

B is for bad cinema : aesthetics, politics and cultural value / edited by Claire Perkins and Constantine Verevis Albany, New York: State University of New York Press, c2014. Call No: 730.2 BIS Author: Perkins, Claire; Verevis, Constantine Source: US Place: Albany, New York Publisher: State University of New York Press PubDate: c2014 PhysDes: xi, 262 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm Subject: AESTHETICS; AUTHORSHIP; B-MOVIES; CULT FILMS; CULTURE AND THE CINEMA; EXPLOITATION FILMS; POLITICS AND THE CINEMA; SUBTITLES; CANDY (AT, Neil Armfield, 2005); EVIL DEAD, THE (US, Sam Raimi, 1982 [prod. 1980]); MARNIE (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1964) Summary: B Is For Bad Cinema continues and extends, but does not limit itself to, the trends in film scholarship that have made cult and exploitation films and other "low" genres increasingly acceptable objects for critical analysis. Springing from discussions of taste and value in film, these original essays mark out the broad contours of "bad" - that is, aesthetically, morally, or commercially disreputable - cinema. While some of the essays share a kinship with recent discussions of B movies and cult films, they do not describe a single aesthetic category or represent a single methodology or critical agenda, but variously approach badcinema in terms of aesthetics, politics and cultural value. The volume covers a range of issues, from the aesthetic and industrial mechanics of low-budget production through the terrain of audience responses and cinematic effect, and onto the broader moral and ethical implications of the material. As a result, B Is For Bad Cinema takes an interest in a variety of film examples - overblown Hollywood blockbusters, faux pornographic works, and European art house films - to consider those that lurk on the boundaries of acceptability." -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.

Boxed in : the culture of TV / by Mark Crispin Miller Evanston, IL: Northwestern University Press, 1989. Call No: 62(04)(73) MIL Author: Miller, Mark Crispin Edition: 3rd ed. Source: US Place: Evanston, IL Publisher: Northwestern University Press PubDate: 1989 PhysDes: 349 p. : ill. ; 23 cm Subject: FILM; MEDIA; TELEVISION; NATIONAL CULTURE AND TV; USA; COSBY SHOW, THE [TV] (US, 1984-92); SUSPICION (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1941) Summary: "These twenty essays written over the past decade comprise an unusual study of the American media spectacle. Here are readings of cinema, advertising, rock music, and -above all - television, a force now so pervasive that it almost seems invisible.
The book is divided into four sections. The first and longest - "What's On TV" - is a collection of twelve essays on some of TV's best-known images. The essays in the next section, "Rock Music: A Success Story," define the trajectory of rock and roll from its exhilarating take-off in the Fifties to its eventual descent into just another form of show business. In "The Promise of Cinema" Miller deals variously with the issue of sexism in the movies, then moves on to an analysis of Alfred Hitchcock's particular response to the problem of mass spectatorship. The book ends with "Overviews," two long essays on the elimination of critical consciousness from our culture.
Each pieces not only offers an intensive analysis of some well-known visual moments - a soap commercial, Bill Cosby's face, Darth Vader glimpsed suddenly without his helmet - but also moves far beyond that rich particular to show how it illuminates the larger forces that produced it. Throughout Boxed In Miller sets a critical example - to show we can, and must, think out loud against the universal pressure of TV" -- BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes index; Bibliography: p. 333-335; Includes index ISBN: 080107929 Contents: -- list of illustrations -- acknowledgments -- introduction: the hipness unto death -- what's on TV -- massa, coming home -- getting dirty -- "family feud" -- off the prigs -- Cosby knows best -- virtu, inc -- a viewer's campaign diary, 1984 -- sickness on TV -- patriotism without tears -- "the air of expectancy was bursting at the seams" -- black and white -- how TV covers war -- rock music: a success story -- where all the flowers went -- the king -- the promise of cinema -- the lives of the stars -- Tom Mix was a softie -- in memoriam - A.J.H -- Hitchcock's suspicions and Suspicion -- overviews -- the robot in the western mind -- big brother is you, watching -- index --

Cinematic canines : Dogs and their work in the fiction film / Edited by Adrienne L. McLean New Brunswick, N.J.: Rutgers University Press, 2014. Call No: 738.66 CIN Author: McLean, Adrienne L. (ed.) Place: New Brunswick, N.J. Publisher: Rutgers University Press PubDate: 2014 PhysDes: x, 272 p. ; 24 cm ; Subject: DOGS IN MOTION PICTURES; LASSIE COME HOME (US, Fred M. Willcox, 1943); BABE (AT, Chris Noonan, 1995); BABE: PIG IN THE CITY (AT, George Miller, 1998); THING, THE (US, John Carpenter, 1982); HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; RED DOG (AT, Kriv Stenders, 2011); [EIGHT] 8 BELOW (US, Frank Marshall, 2006); SOUTH AFRICA; ANTARCTICA Summary: Dogs have been part of motion pictures since the movies began. They have been featured onscreen in various capacities, from any number of “man’s best friends” (Rin Tin Tin, Asta, Toto, Lassie, Benji, Uggie, and many, many more) to the psychotic Cujo. The contributors to Cinematic Canines take a close look at Hollywood films and beyond in order to show that the popularity of dogs on the screen cannot be separated from their increasing presence in our lives over the past century.
The representation and visualization of dogs in cinema, as of other animals, has influenced our understanding of what dogs “should” do and be, for us and with us. Adrienne L. McLean expertly shepherds these original essays into a coherent look at “real” dogs in live-action narrative films, from the stars and featured players to the character and supporting actors to those pooches that assumed bit parts or performed as extras. Who were those dogs, how were they trained, what were they made to do, how did they participate as characters in a fictional universe? These are a just a few of the many questions that she and the outstanding group of scholars in this book have addressed.
Often dogs are anthropomorphized in movies in ways that enable them to reason, sympathize, understand and even talk; and our shaping of dogs into furry humans has had profound effects on the lives of dogs off the screen. Certain breeds of dog have risen in popularity following their appearance in commercial film, often to the detriment of the dogs themselves, who rarely correspond to their idealized screen versions. In essence, the contributors in Cinematic Canines help us think about and understand the meanings of the many canines that appear in the movies and, in turn, we want to know more about those dogs due in no small part to the power of the movies themselves. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9780813563558 Contents: Acknowledgments -- Introduction: Wonder Dogs / Adrienne L.

"Nezar AlSayyad traces the dissolution of the boundary between real and reel through time and space via a series of films that represent different modernities. He contrasts the 'rational' European city of early twentieth-century industrial modernity as portrayed by Berlin: Symphony of a Big City (1927) with its American counterpart in Modern Times (1936). He illustrates the different forms of small town life and an urbanizing modernity across the Atlantic as exemplified by Cinema Paradiso (1989) and It's a Wonderful Life (1946). Using Metropolis (1927) and Brazil (1985), he shows how utopian ideals harbour within them their dystopian realities, while Jacques Tati's nostalgia for tradition in Mon Oncle (1958) and Playtime (1967) reveals a cynical modernity and a rebelling against its idealism." "AlSayyad argues that the postmodern city of Blade Runner (1982) and Falling Down (1993) illustrates some of the urban outcomes of a globalizing economy.
Turning to spectacle and surveillance, he examines Rear Window (1954), Sliver (1993), and The End of Violence (1997) as a voyeuristic modernity. To understand the city experienced by individuals of different social backgrounds, he takes Manhattan (1979), Annie Hall (1977), and Taxi Driver (1976), while Do the Right Thing (1989) and My Beautiful Laundrette (1985) are used to explore a modernity of race and ethnicity. Finally, he uses Pleasantville (1998) and The Truman Show (1998) to unpack the hyperreality of exurban postmodernity and to demonstrate how today the real and the reel have become mutually constitutive." "By considering how the real city and the reel city reference each other in an act of mutual representation and definition, this book advances the discussion on cinematic space and theories of the city."--BOOK BLURB.

Analyses what makes an acting performance excellent, through a range of examples from world cinema. What actors do on-screen is a fascination for audiences all over the world. Indeed, the cultural visibility of movie stars is so pronounced that stardom has often been regarded as intrinsic to the medium's specificity. Yet not all great cinematic performances are star turns, and so, what really makes a cinematic performance good, interesting, or important has been a neglected topic in film criticism. This two-volume set presents detailed interpretations of singular performances by several of the most compelling actors in cinema history, asking in many different and complementary ways what makes performance meaningful, how it reflects a director's style, as well as how it contributes to the development of national cinemas and cultures. Whether noting the precise ways actors shape film narrative, achieve emotional effect, or move toward political subversion, the essays in these books innovate new approaches to studying screen performance as an art form and cultural force"--Page 4 of cover.

A dream of Hitchcock / Murray Pomerance Albany: State University of New York Press, 2019. Call No: 81 HIT POM Author: Pomerance, Murray Place: Albany Publisher: State University of New York Press PubDate: 2019 PhysDes: 274 pages : illustrated ; 24cm Subject: HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; STRANGERS ON A TRAIN (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1951); REAR WINDOW (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1954); SABOTEUR (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1942); REBECCA (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1940); TO CATCH A THIEF (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1955); FAMILY PLOT (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1976); DREAMS IN FILMS Summary: A Dream of Hitchcock examines the recurring motif of the dream in Hitchcock’s work—dreamscapes, dream processes, the dream effect—by focusing on close readings of six celebrated but often misinterpreted films: Strangers on a Train, Rebecca, Saboteur, Rear Window, To Catch a Thief, and Family Plot. The Hitchcockian dream, as invoked here, is not so much a dream as it is a way of understanding, in its dramatic contexts, an “unearthly,” irrational quality in the filmmaker’s work. Rebecca revolves around problems of memory; To Catch a Thief around uncertainty; Saboteur around pungent aspiration; Family Plot around intuition; Rear Windowaround expansive imagination; and Strangers on a Train around delirious madness. All of these films enunciate the return of the past, the invocation of a boundary beyond which experience becomes unpredictable and uncertain, and the celebration of values that transcend narrative resolution. Murray Pomerance’s distinctive method for thinking through Hitchcock’s work allows these films to inform theorization, not the other way around. His original, provocative, and groundbreaking explorations point to the importance of fantasy, improbability, doubt disconcertion, hope, memory, intuition, and belief, through which the oneiric comes to the center of waking life. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9781438472072

The dynamic frame : camera movement in classical Hollywood / Patrick Keating New York; Chichester, UK: Columbia University Press, Call No: 233.6(73) KEA Author: Keting, Patrick Edition: 2019 Place: New York; Chichester, UK Publisher: Columbia University Press PhysDes: xi,350 pages : illustrated ; 24 cm Subject: BERKELEY, BUSBY; BORDWELL, DAVID; CAMERA ANGLES; CITIZEN KANE (US, Orson Welles, 1941); CONVERGENCE; FORD, JOHN; HAWKS, HOWARD; HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; LAST LAUGH, THE (G, Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau, 1924); MAMOULIAN, ROUBEN; MURNAU, FRIEDRICH WILHEL; PREMINGER, OTTO; SUNRISE (US, Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau, 1927); TOLAND, GREGG; VIDOR, KING; WELLES, ORSON Summary: The camera’s movement in a film may seem straightforward or merely technical. Yet skillfully deployed pans, tilts, dollies, cranes, and zooms can express the emotions of a character, convey attitude and irony, or even challenge an ideological stance. In The Dynamic Frame, Patrick Keating offers an innovative history of the aesthetics of the camera that examines how camera movement shaped the classical Hollywood style.
In careful readings of dozens of films, including Sunrise, The Grapes of Wrath, Rear Window, Sunset Boulevard, and Touch of Evil, Keating explores how major figures such as F. W. Murnau, Orson Welles, and Alfred Hitchcock used camera movement to enrich their stories and deepen their themes. Balancing close analysis with a broader poetics of camera movement, Keating uses archival research to chronicle the technological breakthroughs and the changing division of labor that allowed for new possibilities, as well as the shifting political and cultural contexts that inspired filmmakers to use technology in new ways. An original history of film techniques and aesthetics, The Dynamic Frame shows that the classical Hollywood camera moves not to imitate the actions of an omniscient observer but rather to produce the interplay of concealment and revelation that is an essential part of the exchange between film and viewer. -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9780231190510 Contents: Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.

Echographies of television : filmed interviews / Jacques Derrida and Bernard Stiegler ; translated by Jennifer Bajorek. Cambridge, UK: Polity Press, [2002]. Call No: 62 WUR Author: Derrida, Jacques; Stiegler, Bernard; Bajorek, Jennifer Source: UK Place: Cambridge, UK Publisher: Polity Press PubDate: [2002] PhysDes: viii, 174 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm Subject: ADORNO, THEODOR W.; DERRIDA, JACQUES; FOUCAULT, MICHEL; FASSBENDER, MICHAEL; FASSBINDER, RAINER WERNER; HERZOG, WERNER; HITCHCOCK, ALFRED Summary: "In this new book, Jacques Derrida talks with Bernard Stiegler about the effect of teletechnologies on our philosophical and political moment. Improvising before a camera, the two philosophers are confronted by the very technologies they discuss and so are forced to address all the more directly the urgent questions that they raise. What does it mean to speak of the present in a situation of "live" recording? How can we respond, responsibly, to a question when we know that the so-called "natural" conditions of expression, discussion, reflection, and deliberation have been breached?" "As Derrida and Stiegler discuss the role of teletechnologies in modern society, the political implications of Derrida's thought become apparent. Drawing on recent events in Europe, Derrida and Stiegler explore the impact of television and the internet on our understanding of the state, its borders and citizenship. Their discussion examines the relationship between the juridical and the technical, and it shows how new technologies for manipulating and transmitting images have influenced our notions of democracy, history and the body. The book opens with a shorter interview with Derrida on the news media, and closes with a provocative essay by Stiegler on the epistemology of digital photography." "In Echographies of Television, Derrida and Stiegler open up questions that are of key social and political importance. Their book will be of great interest to all those already familiar with Derrida's work, as well as to students and scholars of philosophy, literature, sociology and media studies."--BOOK JACKET.

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 BLURB Notes: Contains illustrations, bibliographic references and index ISBN: 9780813560588

But how has this modern, technological, mass-circulating medium revealed the face in ways that are also distinct from any other? How has it altered our perception of this quintessential incarnation of the person? The archaic powers of masks and icons, the fashioning of the individual in the humanist portrait, the modernist anxieties of fragmentation and de-figuration—these are among the cultural precedents informing our experience in the movie theatre. Yet the moving, time-based image also offers radical new confrontations with the face: Dreyer's Passion of Joan of Arc, Donen's Funny Face, Hitchcock's The Wrong Man, Bresson's Au hazard, Balthazar, Antonioni's Screen Test, Warhol's filmic portraits of celebrity and anonymity. Such intense encounters, examined in this book, manifest a desire for transparency and plenitude, but—especially in post-classical cinema—also betray a profound ambiguity that haunts the human countenance, confronting interiority as opacity, treading the gap between image and language. The spectacular impact of the cinematic face is uncannily intertwined with a reticence, an ineffability; but is it not for this very reason that—like faces in the world—it still enthralls us? -- publisher's web site ISBN: 9780199863167 Contents: Acknowledgements -- Preface: Face Moving Image -- A Dispositif -- An Ur-Image -- The Face Against the Image -- Itineraries Chapter One: We Had Faces, Then -- Expressivity in the 1920s -- Joan of Arc, Inevitably -- The Face and its Voices -- Glamour/Anti-Glamour Chapter Two: Roland Barthes Looks at the Stars -- Towards “Visages et Figures,” and circa 1953 Excursus on the Face in Language -- Into the Movie Theater -- Ultra-Face Excursus on the Mask -- From Cult to Charm: Funny Face Chapter Three: Face-to-Face (with The Wrong Man) -- What Godard Saw -- What the Clerk Saw Excursus on Anthropometrics -- Not a Mirror, Not a Lamp Chapter Four: Pass/Fail: Screen Test, Apparatus, Subject -- The Antonioni Screen Test Excursus on the Portrait -- Outer and Inner Space, and the Pathos of Time -- Fail Better Chapter Five: In Reticence (Bresson) -- The Epidermal and the Written -- The Image Against the Face -- Not an Open Book, but a Door Ajar -- Postface: The Two-Shot: Inherent

Film, form, and phantasy : Adrian Stokes and film aesthetics / Michael O'Pray Houndmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire ; New York: Palgrave Macmillan, 2004. Call No: 626 [159.964.2] OPR Author: O'Pray, Michael Source: US Place: Houndmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire ; New York Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan PubDate: 2004 PhysDes: xiv, 252 p. ; 23 cm Series: Language, Discourse, Society Subject: AESTHETICS; EXPRESSIONISM; B-MOVIES; PSYCHOANALYSIS AND THE CINEMA; MONTAGE; FORD, JOHN; HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; ROSSELLINI, ROBERTO; ANTONIONI, MICHELANGELO; DREYER, CARL TH. Summary: The critical writings of Adrian Stokes, based on the psychoanalyst Melanie Klein's innovative theories, were enormously influential on visual art and culture during his lifetime, but have rarely been applied to film. In this first major study of Stokes, his ideas and those of the philosopher Richard Wolheim are considered in relation to two central issues in current film theory - film as representation and as expression. Stokes fundamental distinction between carving and modelling which reflects Klein's own division in mental life between paranoid-schizoid and depressive positions is explored in relation to the traditional division in film theory between montage and realism. At the core of this study is the role of the Kleinian notion of phantasy in understanding film as an art form. To this end, the carving and modelling modes are applied to the films of Ford, Hitchcock, Rossellini, Antonioni, Dreyer, Eisenstein and American B movies.

Subject: AUTHORSHIP; LUMIERE, LOUIS; PORTER, EDWIN S.; SENNETT, MACK; GRIFFITH, DAVID WARK; FLAHERTY, ROBERT; CHAPLIN, CHARLES; VON STROHEIM, ERICH; VERTOV, DZIGA; DREYER, CARL TH.; HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; RICHARDSON, TONY; COCTEAU, JEAN; RESNAIS, ALAIN; ROBBE-GRILLET, ALAIN; BUNUEL, LUIS; BERGMAN, INGMAR; FELLINI, FEDERICO; VON STERNBERG, JOSEF; ANTONIONI, MICHELANGELO; LANG, FRITZ; WAJDA, ANDRZEJ; WELLES, ORSON; RAY, SARYAJIT; KUROSAWA AKIRA; ANDERSON, LINDSAY; LEAN, DAVID; RENOIR, JEAN; BARDEM, JUAN ANTONIO; ANGER, KENNETH 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.] ID2: 291

Source: US Place: Chicago Publisher: University of Chicago Press PubDate: 2020 PhysDes: 271 pages : illustrations (some colour) ; 32 cm Subject: PHILOSOPHY AND THE CINEMA; SPECTATORSHIP; REAR WINDOW (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1954); TALK TO HER [HABLE CON ELLA] (SP, Pedro Almodovar, 2002); SHADOW OF A DOUBT (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1943); CHINATOWN (US, Roman Polanski, 1974); ALL THAT HEAVEN ALLOWS (US, Douglas Sirk, 1955); JOHNNY GUITAR (US, Nicholas Ray, 1954); IN A LONELY PLACE (US, Nicholas Ray, 1950); THIN RED LINE, THE (US, Terrence Malick, 1998); DARDENNE, JEAN-PIERRE & LUC Summary: "In this book, philosopher Robert B. Pippin reveals how films can illuminate, in a concrete manner, core features of shared human life. Filmed Thought examines questions of morality in Almodovar's Talk to Her, goodness and naivete in Hitchcock's Shadow of a Doubt, love and fantasy in Sirk's All That Heaven Allows, politics and society in Polanski's Chinatown and Malick's The Thin Red Line, and self-understanding and understanding others in Nicholas Ray's In A Lonely Place and in the Dardenne brothers' oeuvre. In each reading, Pippin pays close attention to what makes these films exceptional as technical works of art (with an eye to cinematic irony) and as intellectual and philosophical achievements. Throughout, he shows how films offer a view of basic problems of human agency from the inside and allow viewers to think with and through them. Captivating and insightful, Filmed Thought shows us what it means to take cinema seriously not just as art, but as thought, and how this medium provides a singular form of reflection on what it is to be human." - taken from back cover.

The films of Alfred Hitchcock / David Sterritt Cambridge [England] New York, NY, USA: Cambridge University Press, 1993. Call No: 81HIT STE Author: Sterritt, David Place: Cambridge [England] New York, NY, USA Publisher: Cambridge University Press PubDate: 1993 PhysDes: vii, 165 p. : ill. ; 24 cm Series: Cambridge film classics Subject: HITCHCOCK, ALFRED Summary: Alfred Hitchcock is one of the few filmmakers to combine a strong reputation for high-art filmmaking with great mass-audience popularity. This introduction to his oeuvre provides an overview of a long and prolific career. David Sterritt examines, among other issues, the varied influences on his work; the themes that run through many of his films; the overlooked importance of his presence within his films, including his famous cameo appearances and the characters who "represent" him within the story; his fascination with performance and the ambiguities of illusion and reality; and the question of viewing the filmmaker and his work through the auteur theory. Also discussed is the relationship between Hitchcock as a serious, even tormented, artist and Hitchcock as a magician with a weakness for cinematic practical jokes; Sterritt then provides in-depth analysis of key Hitchcock films: Blackmail, his first talkie; Shadow of a Doubt, one of his personal favorites; The Wrong Man, which questions the nature of guilt and innocence; Vertigo, arguably his most profound work; Psycho, his most savage look at the nature of evil; and The Birds, his last masterpiece and one of his most widely misunderstood films Notes: Includes filmography; Includes bibliographical references (p. 148] and index ISBN: 0521398142 (pbk.); 0521391334 LON: 92025768; 9152770

Haunted by Vertigo : Hitchcock's masterpiece then and now / edited by Sidney Gottlieb and Donal Martin New Barnet, Herts: John Libbey Publishing, Call No: 79 VER HAU Author: Gottlieb, Sidney; Martin, Donal Edition: 2021 Place: New Barnet, Herts Publisher: John Libbey Publishing PhysDes: 242 pages : illustrated ; 24 cm Subject: VERTIGO (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1958); HITCHCOCK, ALFRED Summary: When Richard Schickel stated unequivocally in 1972 that "We're living in a Hitchcock world, all right", he did so without even mentioning the film that now stands at the top of the Sight & Sound Greatest Films of All Time poll: Vertigo. That omission needs to be redressed when we think about the Hitchcock world we live in now. Haunted by Vertigo: Hitchcock's Masterpiece Then and Now gathers essays that offer a variety of approaches to what many consider to be Hitchcock's signature film, one that shows him operating at full strength as a cinematic artist portraying some of the defining elements of modern life: romantic exhilaration and anxiety, the attractiveness and elusiveness of love, and the interpenetration of pain, pleasure, life, and death in our psyche and our culture.
The pieces in this volume explore numerous aspects of how, broadly speaking, Vertigo is about characters haunted by memories and desires; how the film itself is haunted by numerous literary and cinematic fore- bearers; and how it continues to haunt not only filmmakers but artists working in other media as well. Essays that concentrate on formative or interpretive contexts of the film, including Greek mythology, early German cinema, film noir, an ensemble of (mostly) French writers and filmmakers, andmodern and postmodern art are complemented by others that present close readings of hidden details in the film, its use of multiple gazes that underscore its meaning and drama, the darker sides of even gestures of love and hospitality, and how the film embodies Hitchcock's "late style". Taken together the essays in the volume reinforce how Vertigo is, like the majestic trees visited by the two main characters in the film, sempervirens – an enduring masterpiece of then, now, and, we can safely say, the future. -- publisher's blurb ISBN: 9780861967421 Donation: Senses of Cinema

Hearths of darkness : the family in the American horror film / Tony Williams Jackson: University Press of Mississippi, c2014. Call No: 735.2 WIL Author: Williams, Tony Edition: Updated ed. Source: US Place: Jackson Publisher: University Press of Mississippi PubDate: c2014 PhysDes: Tony Williams Subject: ADAPTATIONS. KING, STEPHEN; FAMILY IN FILMS; HORROR FILMS. USA; PSYCHO (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1960); POLTERGEIST (US, Tobe Hooper, 1982); POLTERGEIST II: THE OTHER SIDE (US, Brian Gibson, 1986); NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET (US, Wes Craven, 1984); TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE, THE (US, Tobe Hooper, 1974) Summary: Hearths of Darkness traces the origins of the 1970s family horror subgenre
to certain aspects of American culture and classical Hollywood cinema. Far
from being an ephemeral and shortlived genre, horror actually relates to many facets of American history from its beginnings to the present day. Individual chapters examine aspects of the genre, its roots in the Universal horror films of the 1930s, the Val Lewton RKO unit of the 1940s, and the crucial role of Alfred Hitchcock as the father of the modern American horror film. Subsequent chapters investigate the key works of the 1970s by directors such as Larry Cohen, George A. Romero, Brian De Palma, Wes Craven, and Tobe Hooper, revealing the distinctive nature of films such as Bone, It’s Alive, God Told Me, Carrie, The Exorcist, Exorcist 2, and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, as well as the contributions of such writers as Stephen King. Tony Williams also studies the slasher films of the 1980s and 1990s, such as the Friday the 13th series, Halloween, the remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Nightmare on Elm Street, exploring their failure to improve on the radical achievements of the films of the 1970s.
After covering some post-1970s films, such as The Shining, the book concludes with a new postscript examining neglected films of the twentieth and early twenty-first century. Despite the overall decline in the American horror film, Williams determines that, far from being dead, the family horror film is still with us. Elements of family horror even appear in modern television series such as The Sopranos. This updated edition also includes a new introduction.-[taken from publishers site] Notes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 333-346) and index ISBN: 9781628461909 Contents: Introduction: family assault in the American horror film -- Classical shapes of rage: universal and beyond -- Lewton or "the ambiguities" -- To Psycho and beyond: the Hitchcock connection -- Return of the native: the satanic assaults -- Far from Vietnam: the family at war -- Sacrificial victims -- Chain saw massacres: the apocalyptic dimension -- The return of Kronos -- Poltergeist and Freddy's nightmares -- The King adaptations -- Into the nineties -- Postscript.

Hidden Hitchcock / by D.A. Miller Chicago and London: University of Chicago Press, 2016. Call No: 81 HIT MIL Author: Miller, D.A. Edition: 2016 Source: UK/US Place: Chicago and London Publisher: University of Chicago Press PubDate: 2016 PhysDes: 186 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm Subject: HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; STRANGERS ON A TRAIN (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1951); ROPE (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1948); WRONG MAN, THE (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1957) Summary: "No filmmaker has more successfully courted mass-audience understanding than Alfred Hitchcock, and none has been studied more intensively by scholars. In Hidden Hitchcock, D. A. Miller does what seems impossible: he discovers what has remained unseen in Hitchcock’s movies, a secret style that imbues his films with a radical duplicity.
Focusing on three films—Strangers on a Train, Rope, and The Wrong Man—Miller shows how Hitchcock anticipates, even demands a “Too-Close Viewer.” Dwelling within us all and vigilant even when everything appears to be in good order, this Too-Close Viewer attempts to see more than the director points out, to expand the space of the film and the duration of the viewing experience. And, thanks to Hidden Hitchcock, that obsessive attention is rewarded. In Hitchcock’s visual puns, his so-called continuity errors, and his hidden appearances (not to be confused with his cameos), Miller finds wellsprings of enigma.
Hidden Hitchcock is a revelatory work that not only shows how little we know this best known of filmmakers, but also how near such too-close viewing comes to cinephilic madness." -- BOOK JACKET Notes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 154-186) ISBN: 9780226374673 Donation: Senses of Cinema Contents: Hidden pictures (Strangers on a train) -- Understyle (Rope) -- The long Wrong Man

Call No: 753HIT OST Author: Osteen, Mark (editor) Source: UK Place: Lanham, Maryland Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield PubDate: c2014 PhysDes: xxxviii, 314 pages ; 24 cm Subject: ADAPTATIONS; AUTHORSHIP; AUTEUR THEORY; HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; THIRTY-NINE STEPS, THE (UK, Alfred Hitchcock, 1935); SHADOW OF A DOUBT (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1943); LIFEBOAT (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1944); REAR WINDOW (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1954); VERTIGO (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1958); MARNIE (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1964); FRENZY (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1972) Summary: In Hitchcock and Adaptation: On the Page and Screen, Mark Osteen has assembled a wide-ranging collection of essays that explore how Hitchcock and his screenwriters transformed literary and theatrical source material into masterpieces of cinema. Some of these essays look at adaptations through a specific lens, such as queer aesthetics applied to Rope, Strangers on a Train, and Psycho, while others tackle the issue of Hitchcock as author, auteur, adaptor, and, for the first time, present Hitchcock as a literary source. Film adaptations discussed in this volume include The 39 Steps, Shadow of a Doubt, Lifeboat, Rear Window, Vertigo, Marnie, and Frenzy. Additional essays analyze Hitchcock-inspired works by W. G. Sebald, Don DeLillo, Bret Easton Ellis, and others.
These close examinations of Alfred Hitchcock and the creative process illuminate the significance of the material he turned to for inspiration, celebrate the men and women who helped bring his artistic vision from the printed word to the screen, and explore how the director has influenced contemporary writers. A fascinating look into an underexplored aspect of the director’s working methods, Hitchcock and Adaptation will be of interest to film scholars and fans of cinema’s most gifted auteur. -- Extract from the back of book Notes: Includes filmography -- Includes bibliographical references, filmography and index ISBN: 9781442230873 Contents: Part 1.

A Hitchcock Reader grows out of the editors' desire as classroom teachers for a comprehensive and critical text in introductory or advanced courses devoted to the director's films. Yet the book should also satisfy scholars by providing an updated anthology representing the rich variety of critical responses that Hitchcock's films have evoked over the years." "This new edition of A Hitchcock Reader aims to preserve what has been so satisfying - and successful - in the first edition. This new edition, however, will update scholarship since publication of the first edition; offer entirely new editorial matter, including a general introduction to the volume; more visuals; and comprehensive bibliographies of suggested readings, references, and works cited."--BOOK JACKET Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index ISBN: 9781405155564 Contents: Preface -- Introduction -- Part One: Taking Hitchcock Seriously [Section Intro and Bibliography] -- 1.

Hitchcock's people, places, and things / John Bruns Evanston, Illinois: Northwestern Univesity Press, 2019. Call No: 81HIT BRU Author: Bruns, John Source: US Place: Evanston, Illinois Publisher: Northwestern Univesity Press PubDate: 2019 PhysDes: ix, 215 pages: illustrations; 23cm Subject: HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; HUMAN RELATIONS IN FILMS; LODGER, THE (UK, Alfred Hitchcock, 1926); SHADOW OF A DOUBT (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1943); PSYCHO (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1960); BIRDS, THE (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1963); CROWDS IN FILMS; MARNIE (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1964); I CONFESS (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1953); SUPERNATURAL IN FILMS; URBAN LIFE IN FILMS; LANDSCAPES IN FILMS Summary: "Hitchcock’s People, Places, and Things argues that Alfred Hitchcock was as much a filmmaker of things and places as he was of people. Drawing on the thought of Bruno Latour, John Bruns traces the complex relations of human and nonhuman agents in Hitchcock’s films with the aim of mapping the Hitchcock landscape cognitively, affectively, and politically. Yet this book does not promise that such a map can or will cohere, for Hitchcock was just as adept at misdirection as he was at direction. Bearing this in mind and true to the Hitchcock spirit, Hitchcock’s People, Places, and Things anticipates that people will stumble into the wrong places at the wrong time, places will be made uncanny by things, and things exchanged between people will act as (not-so) secret agents that make up the perilous landscape of Hitchcock’s work.
This book offers new readings of well-known Hitchcock films, including The Lodger, Shadow of a Doubt, Psycho, The Birds, and Marnie, as well as insights into lesser-discussed films such as I Confess and Family Plot. Additional close readings of the original theatrical trailer for Psycho and a Hitchcock-directed episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents expand the Hitchcock landscape beyond conventional critical borders. In tracing the network of relations in Hitchcock’s work, Bruns brings new Hitchcockian tropes to light. For students, scholars, and serious fans, the author promises a thrilling critical navigation of the Hitchcock landscape, with frequent “mental shake-ups” that Hitchcock promised his audience." -- FROM BLURB Notes: Includes bibliography and index.

Does the cinema or any other sign system librerate or manipulate us? How can we as spectators know when the media are subtly perpetuating a specific set of values? To address these issues, the author draws from a variety of approaches - Marxism, psychoanalysis, communication theory, semiotics, structuralism, the psychology of perception. Working with two interrelated theories - ideology and systems of visual representation, and ideology and principles of textual criticism - Nichols shows how and why we make emotional investments in sign systems within an ideological context." -- BACK COVER Notes: Includes index; Bibliography: p. 304-313 ISBN: 0253182875; 0253202566 (pbk.)

The twenties saw the birth of celebrity, still so influential even today. With the influence of Freud and the unconscious came film noir, anticipated by dark European classics like La Bete Humaine; Hollywood in the fifties turned ideological fears into lurid sci-fi and body-snatching horror; with the social change of the sixties came refracted ways of seeing, from Alfie to theStargate sequence in 2001: A Space Odyssey or a compelling seventies nightmares like Carrie. Moving towards our own century, Francine Stock considers how film reflects back on itself, bending time and technology to look to the future. More than a century on from those earliest awe-inspiring images, we are still in thrall to the power of film. In this fascinating, entertaining and illuminating book Francine Stock shows how film both reflects and remakes our world. ISBN: 9781845951993

The last days of Alfred Hitchcock : a memoir featuring the screenplay of "Alfred Hitchcock's The Short Night" / David Freeman Woodstock, N.Y.: The Overlook Press, 1984. Call No: 81HIT FRE Author: Freeman, David Source: US Place: Woodstock, N.Y. Publisher: The Overlook Press PubDate: 1984 PhysDes: 281 p., [16] p. of plates : ill.; 23 cm Subject: HITCHCOCK, ALFRED Summary: "In The Last Days of Alfred Hitchcock, David Freeman, screenwriter and Hitchcock's last collaborator, has written a penetrating account of his experience working with the famous director. He takes the reader behind the scenes, into Hitchcock's home and into the Universal Studios bungalow, where the director planned his movies, and illuminates a very private side of the man. In the time they spent collaborating on the thriller "The Short Night" - the director's final film project, which remains unproduced - Hitchcock was in constant pain and suffered from severe depression about his health and that of his wife, Alma. Nevertheless, he worked steadily and reminisced about his life, his films, and the people he knew, including Ingrid Bergman, Howard Hughes, Cary Grant, and Kim Novak. This unique volume includes a new introduction by the author, the complete screenplay of "The Short Night" as well as commentary on the screenplay, and a complete filmography. The Last Days of Alfred Hitchcock will fascinate and enlighten anyone who's ever enjoyed the work of this cinematic giant, whose classic films continue to fascinate us."--BOOK JACKET ISBN: 0879519843

(US, Frank Tashlin, 1957) Summary: With the likes of Billy Wilder, Howard Hawks, Alfred Hitchcock, and Frank Tashlin revelling in "monkeys, babies, beautiful blondes, money, and cruelty" in their signature films of the 1950s, this seemingly conformist period turns out to be one of the most dynamic and original eras in Hollywood history. What distinguishes these directors is their candid and amusing exploration of cultural anxieties in carnival form. Quirky yet complex films such as Monkey Business, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Sunset Boulevard, The Trouble with Harry, and Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter? released and expressed the sexual repression and frustration we commonly associate with the decade Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p.

The literature/film reader : issues of adaptation / edited by James M. Walsh and Peter Lev Maryland: Scarecrow Press, 2007. Call No: 753(04) WEL Author: Walsh, James M.; Lev, Peter Source: US Place: Maryland Publisher: Scarecrow Press PubDate: 2007 PhysDes: xxviii, 361p. ; 23cm Subject: ADAPTATIONS; ADAPTATIONS. SHAKESPEARE, WILLIAM; APOCALYPSE NOW (US, Francis Ford Coppola, 1979); MOBY DICK (UK, John Huston, 1956); WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE'S ROMEO + JULIET (US, Baz Luhrmann, 1996); HOUSE OF MIRTH, THE (UK, Terence Davies, 2000); BRAM STOKER'S DRACULA (US, Francis Ford Coppola, 1992); VERTIGO (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1958); MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE, THE (US, John Frankenheimer, 1962); MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE, THE (US, Jonathon Demme, 2004); QUIET AMERICAN, THE (US, Joseph L. Mankiewicz, 1957); RIDE WITH THE DEVIL (US, Ang Lee, 1999) Summary: From examinations of Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now to Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo, The Literature Film Reader: Issues of Adaptation covers a wide range of films adapted from other sources. The first section presents essays on the hows and whys of adaptation studies, and subsequent sections highlight films adapted from a variety of sources, including classic and popular literature, drama, biography, and memoir. The last section offers a new departure for adaptation studies, suggesting that films about history—often a separate category of film study—can be seen as adaptations of records of the past. The anthology concludes with speculations about the future of adaptation studies.
Several essays provide detailed analyses of films, in some cases discussing more than one adaptation of a literary or dramatic source, such as The Manchurian Candidate, The Quiet American, and Romeo and Juliet. Other works examined include Moby Dick, The House of Mirth, Dracula, and Starship Troopers, demonstrating the breadth of material considered for this anthology.
Although many of the essays appeared in Literature/Film Quarterly, more than half are original contributions. Chosen for their readability, these essays avoid theoretical jargon as much as possible. For this reason alone, this collection should be of interest to not only cinema scholars but to anyone interested in films and their source material. Ultimately, The Literature Film Reader: Issues of Adaptation provides an excellent overview of this critical aspect of film studies.

Marnie / Murray Pomerance Houndmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire, New York: Palgrave Macmillan, 2014. Call No: 79 MAR POM Author: Pomerance, Murray Source: UK Place: Houndmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire, New York Publisher: Palgrave Macmillan PubDate: 2014 Series: BFI Classics Subject: HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; MARNIE (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1964) Summary: A thrilling tale of anxiety and moral extremity, Marnie (1964) cemented Alfred Hitchcock's reputation as a master of suspense and the visual form. Murray Pomerance here ranges through the many tortuous and thrilling passages of Marnie, weaving critical discussion together with production history to reveal Marnie as a woman in flight from her self, her past, her love, and the eyes of surveilling others. Challenging many received opinions, including claims of technical sloppiness and the proposal that Marnie's marriage night is a 'rape scene', Pomerance sheds new light on a film that can often be difficult to understand and accept on its own terms. Original and stimulating, this BFI Film Classic identifies Marnie as one of Hitchcock's masterpieces, highlights the film's philosophical and psychological sensitivity, and reveals its sharp-eyed understanding of American society and its mores Notes: Published on behalf of the British Film Institute.; Includes bibliographical references (pages 92-96) ISBN: 9781844576548 Contents: -- acknowledgments -- the story -- 1 fugue -- 2 droit du seigneur -- 3 confederacy -- 4 face-off -- 5 I remember Mama -- notes -- credits -- bibliography --

Self-imposed exiles, they approached American and European society as inside-outsiders, a position that afforded them a kind of double vision. Masters of their arts, manipulators of their audiences, prescient and path-breaking in their techniques, these demanding and meticulous craftsmen produced some of the greatest art of the last 150 years. This capacious collection, with its brilliant insights and intellectual surprises, is equally compelling in its range and cogency for Jmes readers and film theorists, for Hitchcock fans and James scholars." -- BOOK BLURB ISBN: 9780199764433 Contents: Reading James with Hitchcock, reading Hitchcock with James / Susan Griffin and Alan Nadel -- National bodies / Susan Griffin -- Secrets, lies, and virtuous attachments : The ambassadors and The 39 steps / Brenda Austin-Smith -- Henry James and Alfred Hitchcock after the American century : circulation and non-return in The American scene and Strangers on a train / Brian T.

The men who mad the movies : interviews with Frank Capra, George Cukor, Howard Hawks, Alfred Hitchcock, Vincente Minnelli, King Vidor, Raoul Walsh, and William A. Wellman New York: Atheneum, 1975. Call No: 802.25 SCH Edition: 1975 Place: New York Publisher: Atheneum PubDate: 1975 PhysDes: x, 308 pages : illustrations ; 27 cm Subject: DIRECTORS; CAPRA, FRANK; HAWKS, HOWARD; HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; MINNELLI, VINCENTE; VIDOR, KING; WALSH, RAOUL; WELLMAN, WILLIAM Summary: [This book] evolved from the memorable television series that was named by the New York Times as one of the outstanding television programs of 1973. Eight directors were encouraged by Schickel to reminisce about their working lives, which spanned the most intriguing decades of American film. In speaking with them, he found in these men a special quality: 'They felt in their bones the character and quality of a vanished America.' There was something valuable to be learned from them, not merely about the cinema, but about the conduct of life. They would, as Schickel says, be worthy of study even 'if they had been engaged in the manufacture of widgets, let alone something as intrinsically interesting as movies.' Each director created a canon of work that even today sustains critical analysis without sacrificing popular appeal. Moreover, each maintained his artistic integrity while working in an atmosphere generally credited with ruining rather than nurturing talent--Hollywood. The format of these interviews allows the directors to talk about preplanned issues without interruption. And the topics discussed deal with the directors' lives and attitudes rather than with the technical nature of their work; in fact, any questions which seemed too specifically technical were often greeted by them with snorts of contempt. The book is rich in behind-the-scenes stories about such modern classics as 'It Happened One Night', 'Dawn Patrol', 'The Champ', 'Born Yesterday', 'Father of the Bride', 'Shadow of a Doubt', and 'The Roaring Twenties', as well as in anecdotes about the lives of men who not only 'made the movies' but who made Hollywood the glamour capital of the world. -- publisher's blurb ISBN: 9780689106316 Donation: Paul Anderson

Movie love in the fifties / James Harvey New York: Alfred A. Knopf, Call No: 733.3(73)"5" HAR Author: Harvey, James Edition: 2001 Place: New York Publisher: Alfred A. Knopf PhysDes: 464 pages : illustrated ; 25 cm Subject: ACTORS; STARS; DIRECTORS; HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; RAY, NICHOLAS; KAZAN, ELIA; SIRK, DOUGLAS; SIODMAK, ROBERT Summary: From the author of Romantic Comedy (“brilliant, meticulous, a monumental work of scholarship” —Margo Jefferson, New York Times), a fresh, illuminating look at the films of the 1950s.
Harvey begins by mapping the progression from 1940s film noir to the living-room melodramas of the 1950s. He shows us the femme fatale of the 1940s (Barbara Stanwyck, Joan Bennett) becoming blander and blonder (Doris Day, Debbie Reynolds) and younger and more traditionally sexy (Marilyn Monroe, Grace Kelly) in the 1950s. And he shows us how women were finally replaced as objects of desire by the new boy-men—Clift, Brando, Dean, and other rebels without causes.
Harvey discusses the films of Hitchcock (Vertigo), Ophuls (The Reckless Moment), Siodmak (Christmas Holiday), and Welles (Touch of Evil, perhaps the single greatest influence on the “post-classical” movies). He writes about the quintessential 1950s directors: Nicholas Ray, who made movies in the old Hollywood tradition (In a Lonely Place, Johnny Guitar), and Douglas Sirk, who portrayed suburbia as an emotional deathtrap (Imitation of Life, Magnificent Obsession). And he discusses the “serious” directors, such as Stanley Kramer and Elia Kazan, whose films exhibited powerful new realism.
Comprehensive, insightful, written with intelligence, humor, and affection, Movie Love in the Fifties is a masterful work of American film, and cultural, history. -- publisher's blurb ISBN: 9780394585918 Donation: James Sabine

In America, we witness the birth of Hollywood, circa 1910, where film quickly became a powerful industry and D. W. Griffith put American cinema on the map; later, Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton developed a new language of visual comedy while eccentrics like Erich von Stroheim and Cecil B. DeMille turned cinema into a high art form and show biz respectively, and sex symbols like Rudolph Valentino and Greta Garbo heated up the screens.
Meanwhile, in Europe, German directors such as Ernst Lubitsch and Fritz Lang were establishing their careers and Russian greats Eisenstein and Pudovkin were already revolutionizing a nascent art form. At the end of the 1920s the very first "talkies", albeit rudimentary ones, brutally crushed the silent art, but by 1930 sound masterpieces such as Sternberg's The Blue Angel and Milestone's All Quiet on the Western Front were produced. This exploration of the founding years of cinema offers a fascinating perspective on a period in movie history that is far too often overlooked in our times. -- jacket blurb ISBN: 9783822846131 Donation: Megan McMurchy

Call No: 67(04) WOL Author: Wollen, Peter Source: UK/US Place: London ; New York Publisher: Verso PubDate: 2002 PhysDes: vi, 314 p. ; 21 cm Subject: ARCHITECTURE IN FILMS; DIRECTORS; FILM; THEORY; MOVEMENTS IN FILM HISTORY; MOVEMENTS AND STYLES IN FILM HISTORY; BURROUGHS, WILLIAM; EGGELING, VIKING; GODARD, JEAN-LUC; HAWKS, HOWARD; HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; ROUCH, JEAN; BLADE RUNNER (US, Ridley Scott, 1982); BLADE RUNNER: THE DIRECTOR'S CUT (US, Ridley Scott, 1982); FREUD (US, John Huston, 1962); RULES OF THE GAME, THE (FR, Jean Renoir, 1939); REGLE DU JEU, LA (FR, Jean Renoir, 1939) Summary: "In this new collection of essays on the cinema, all written over the last ten years, Peter Wollen explores an extraordinarily wide range of topics, stretching from an analysis of time in film and video art to a study of Riff-Raff Realism in British film. Provocative essays discuss the work both of established auteur directors such as Howard Hawks and Alfred Hitchcock as well as the filmmaking careers of such experimental moviemakers as William Burroughs and Viking Eggeling, the dadaist pioneer of abstract film. The collection also includes fascinating studies of a number of film classics, such as John Huston's Freud, Jean Renoir's Rules of the Game and Ridley Scott's Blade Runner.".
"Paris Hollywood suggests new approaches to thinking about film and many unexpected connections between film studies and the history of such strangely related activities as espionage, psychoanalysis, dance, architecture, anthropology, Stalinism, love of speed and digital technology. Wollen's book is based on the premise that there are no fixed ways of writing about the cinema but, rather, a plethora of paths leading in very different directions, each contributing to a new understanding of the 20th century's major art form."--BOOK JACKET Notes: Includes bibliographical references and indexes

Night Shyamalan, 1999); SAW (US, James Wan, 2004); PSYCHO (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1960); PSYCHO II (US, Richard Franklin, 1983); PSYCHO III (US, Anthony Perkins, 1986); PSYCHO IV: THE BEGINNING [TV] (US, Mick Garris, 1990) Notes: The Psycho Records follows the influence of the primal shower scene within subsequent slasher and splatter films. American soldiers returning from World War II were called "psychos" if they exhibited mental illness. Robert Bloch and Alfred Hitchcock turned the term into a catch-all phrase for a range of psychotic and psychopathic symptoms or dispositions. They transferred a war disorder to the American heartland. Drawing on his experience with German film, Hitchcock packed inside his shower stall the essence of schauer, the German cognate meaning "horror." Later serial horror film production has post-traumatically flashed back to Hitchcock's shower scene. In the end, though, this book argues the effect is therapeutically finite. This extensive case study summons the genealogical readings of philosopher and psychoanalyst Laurence Rickels. The book opens not with another reading of Hitchcock's 1960 film but with an evaluation of various updates to vampirism over the years. It concludes with a close look at the rise of demonic and infernal tendencies in horror movies since the 1990s and the problem of the psycho as our most uncanny double in close quarters. -- publisher's blurb ISBN: 9780231181136

Screen memories : Hollywood cinema on the psychoanalytic couch / Harvey Roy Greenberg New York: Columbia University Press, 1993. Call No: 626:159.964.2 GRE Author: Greenberg, Harvey R Place: New York Publisher: Columbia University Press PubDate: 1993 PhysDes: 277 p. : ill. ; 24 cm Subject: PSYCHOANALYSIS AND THE CINEMA; CASABLANCA (US, Michael Curtiz, 1942); MALTESE FALCON, THE (US, John Huston, 1941); RED DAWN (US, John Milius, 1984); FIRST BLOOD (US, Ted Kotcheff, 1982); PSYCHO (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1960); ALIEN (UK, Ridley Scott, 1979); BOSTONIANS, THE (UK/US, James Ivory, 1984); ALWAYS (US, Steven Spielberg, 1989); ENEMIES, A LOVE STORY (US, Paul Mazursky, 1989); WORKING GIRL (US, Mike Nichols, 1988) Summary: Screen Memories delves into the psychological aspects of mainstream American movies ranging from Casablanca to Working Girl. While most psychoanalytic film criticism is highly theoretical, Greenberg writes in a candid, entertaining style that will appeal to cineasts and scholars alike. Beginning with a basic overview of psychoanalytic film criticism, Greenberg directs his focus on characters, motivations, and conflicts in detective, war, science fiction, and horror movies, as well as cult cinema. In "On the McMovie," he probes the hollow, escapist fare that emerged from Hollywood in the 1970s and 1980s and embraced nearly every genre. Greenberg zooms in on the pathological narcissism of heroes in such McMovies as Rambo and Top Gun; Screen Memories concludes by addressing two important films of the late 1980s. Greenberg decries Working Girl as a "Co-opt" film with a seemingly liberal agenda, which nevertheless mocks and subverts the very social advances it appears to affirm. But Enemies: A Love Story - with its humor, manic energy, and theme of renewal in the teeth of death - is seen as evidence of a tentative but hopeful return to quality in Hollywood Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. [241]-268) and index ISBN: 0231072864 (acid-free paper) LON: 92041710; 9733268

Stars and silhouettes : the history of the cameo role in Hollywood / Joceline Andersen Detroit, Michigan: Wayne State University Press, Call No: C11499 Author: Andersen, Joceline Edition: 2020 Place: Detroit, Michigan Publisher: Wayne State University Press PhysDes: viii, 292 pages : illustrated ; 24 cm Series: Contmporary Approaches to Film and Media Series Subject: CELEBRITIES IN FILMS; AROUND THE WORLD IN EIGHTY DAYS (US, Michael Anderson, 1956); IT'S A MAD MAD MAD MAD WORLD (US, Stanley Kramer, 1963); CHAPLIN, CHARLES; HITCHCOCK, ALFRED; KEATON, BUSTER Summary: Stars and Silhouettes: The History of the Cameo Role in Hollywood traces the history of the cameo as it emerged in twentieth-century cinema. Although the cameo has existed in film culture for over a century, Joceline Andersen explains that this role cannot be strictly defined because it exists as a constellation of interactions between duration and recognition, dependent on who is watching and when. Even audiences of the twenty-first century who are inundated by the lives of movie stars and habituated to images of their personal friends on screens continue to find cameos surprising and engaging. Cameos reveal the links between our obsession with celebrity and our desire to participate in the powerful cultural industries within contemporary society.
Chapter 1 begins with the cameo’s precedents in visual culture and the portrait in particular—from the Vitagraph executives in the 1910s to the emergence of actors as movie stars shortly after. Chapter 2 explores the fan-centric desire for behind-the-scenes visions of Hollywood that accounted for the success of cameo-laden, Hollywood-set films that autocratic studios used to make their glamorous line-up of stars as visible as possible. Chapter 3 traces the development of the cameo in comedy, where cameos began to show not only glimpses of celebrities at their best but also of celebrities at their worst. Chapter 4 examines how the television guest spot became an important way for stars and studios to market both their films and stars from other media in trades that reflected an increasingly integrated mediascape. In Chapter 5, Andersen examines auteur cameos and the cameo as a sign of authorship. Director cameos reaffirm the fan’s interest in the film not just as a stage for actors but as a forum for the visibility of the director.
Cameos create a participatory space for viewers, where recognizing those singled out among extras and small roles allows fans to demonstrate their knowledge. Stars and Silhouettes belongs on the shelf of every scholar, student, and reader interested in film history and star studies. ISBN: 9780814346914
