He follows the growth of Sundance from a regional film festival to the premier showcase of independent film that it became, showing how it succeeded almost despite Robert Redford, whose visionary plans were often thwarted by his quixotic personality. He charts the meteoric rise of the controversial Harvey Weinstein, often described as the last mogul who, with his brother Bob, left a trail of carnage in his wake, yet created an Oscar factory that is the envy of the studios.

Source: USPlace: TorontoPublisher: University of Toronto PressPubDate: c2015PhysDes: xii, 313 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm.Subject: FILMMAKING ; INDEPENDENT FILMMAKERS ; INDEPENDENT FILMS ; INDEPENDENT PRODUCTION ; INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS ; DIRECTORS ; PRODUCERS ; CRITICISM ; EUROPEAN CINEMA ; BRITISH CINEMA ; UNITED KINGDOM ; AUSTRALIA ; PERU ; GREECE ; TURKEY ; IRAQ ; CHINA ; AFRICA ; MALAYSIA ; CANADA ; USA Summary: "Independent Filmmaking around the Globe calls attention to the significant changes taking place in independent cinema today, as new production and distribution technology and shifting social dynamics make it easier for independent filmmakers to produce films outside both the mainstream global film industry and their own national film systems. Identifying and analyzing the many complex forces that shape the production and distribution of feature films, the authors detail how independent filmmakers create work that reflects independent voices and challenges political, economic, and cultural constraints.
With chapters on the under-explored cinemas of Greece, Turkey, Iraq, China, Malaysia, Peru, and West Africa, as well as traditional production centres such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia, Independent Filmmaking around the Globe explores how contemporary independent filmmaking increasingly defines the global cinema of our time." -- TAKEN FROM FIRST PAGE OF BOOKNotes: Includes bibliographical references and filmographyISBN: 9781442626836Donation: Senses of CinemaContents: -- foreword: producing independently in global industry / David Hamilton -- ackowledgments -- 1.The Meaning of Independence: Concepts, Contexts, and Interpretations / Mary P.

EUROPEAN COUNTRIES ; INDUSTRY, FILM. USA ; INDEPENDENT PRODUCTION ; GOVERNMENT AID. EUROPEAN COUNTRIES ; QUOTA. EUROPEAN COUNTRIES ; DISTRIBUTORS ; ALMODOVAR, PEDRO ; PUTTNAM, DAVID ; BERLUSCONI, SILVIO ; BERRI, CLAUDE ; BESSON, LUC Summary: The Movie Game is the first ever comprehensive guide to the industry on both sides of the Atlantic. The book outlines the game rules for the Majors, Independents, Foreign Sales Agents and the European subsidy system. Europe has always been the 'hidden' half of the American film equation. The Majors were built by native Europeans and have always been highly dependent on European talent and revenues. The Independents finance their films through pre-sales to Europe, and many of the leading producers are native Europeans who have relocated to the movie colony. While the American Majors thrive on high-risk free-market capitalism, Europe's media groups are enmeshed in political straitjackets designed to defend the 'national interest'. Quotas and subsidies have herded European cinema into a cultural ghetto from which it is very difficult to conduct rational debate. The MEDIA Programme seems only to have intensified the problem; Inspiration is drawn from the European film-makers who have succeeded in rising above the 'subsidy trap' mentality. The book concludes with profiles of producers such as David Puttnam, Claude Berri, Pedro Almodovar and Luc Besson. They are the human face of the industry and prove that however bureaucratic the world becomes, there will always be mavericks who stand out and make their voice heardNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 332-334) and indexISBN: 0304333867; 0304333875 (pbk.)LON: gb 97034316; 13222852
