AUSTRALIA ; TELEVISION ; TELEVISION. AUSTRALIA ; MORECROFT, RICHARD Summary: "Richard Morecroft is a familiar face in Australian homes... from the waist up! Now, in this collection of amusing anecdotes and surprising stories, Richard reveals the lighter side of life for a serious broadcaster. Why does our favourite news anchor have his own halo? Does a baby bat in his shirt help him read the headlines? And what's the worst mistake he's ever made on air? Then there are times when the public and private collide. Beaming into thousands of homes each night guarantees familiarity, but sometimes Richard gets more than he bargains for. Like being hugged and kissed in a lift by a complete stranger...Like being stalked in a car park by senior citizens...Like being accused of having a secret facelift...
Richard Morecroft has been the face of ABC television news for almost two decades. In addition to his familiar nightly news role, he has fronted current affairs and business programs, anchored election broadcasts, written and narrated wildlife and other documentaries, and hosted a range of educational producations.

March 20, 2019 marked the end of an era -- Disney took ownership of the movie empire that was Fox. For almost a century before that historic date, Twentieth Century-Fox was one of the preeminent producers of films, stars, and filmmakers. Its unique identity in the industry and place in movie history is unparalleled -- and one of the greatest stories to come out of Hollywood. One man, a legendary producer named Darryl F. Zanuck, is the heart of the story. This narrative tells the complete tale of Zanuck and the films, stars, intrigue, and innovations of the iconic studio that was. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780762470938

Philip Brophy delves deep into the chaos of meaning engendered by anime's mutation of Eastern and Western themes, images and sounds, enabling the reader to navigate the post-war shock waves that still propel Japan's popular culture. Individual entries on 100 key anime films, from Akira to Spirited Away by way of Blue Seed, Ghost in the Shell and Neon Genesis Evangeleon, present plot synopses and discussion of the films' sources and influences and major themes, as well as information about the sub genre or genres to which each film belongs, and selected credits. Philip Brophy's introduction to the volume provides a framework for understanding the 100 films in terms of the vast anime industry, as well as explaining how the calligraphic tradition contributed to the development and popularity of anime, and highlighting the events and themes in Japanese culture that have shaped and are reflected in anime.

Edward Buscombe provides an illuminating guide to a hundred key films of the genre, from Broken Arrow to The Wild Bunch by way of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, A Fistful of Dollars, The Magnificent Seven and The Searchers. Each entry includes a plot synopsis, major credits, and a commentary on the film’s significance, together with its production and exhibition history. Edward Buscombe’s introduction to the volume discusses the criteria for selecting a mere hundred essential Westerns out of the thousands that have been made since the birth of cinema. He considers the relative weight to be attached to the acknowledged great directors of the genre, such as John Ford and Sam Peckinpah, and to lesser known but significant figures such as Delmer Daves. He takes stock of the contribution of the great Western stars, including John Wayne, James Stewart and Clint Eastwood. And he argues for a selection that takes into account Westerns of the silent era, B-Westerns and singing cowboys, and those Westerns made outside America. [Taken from back cover.]ISBN: 1844571122

Activism, community and governance : Barry Barclay's The Kaipara affair in Studies in Australasian cinema (2007) vol.1 iss.2 p.147-159
Author: Murray, Stuart PhysDes: ArticleSubject: KAIPARA AFFAIR, THE (NZ, Barry Barclay, 2005) Summary: This article discusses the most recent film made by Maori film-maker Barry Barclay, the 2005 documentary feature The Kaipara affair, which centres on disputes over fishing rights in the Kaipara harbour in the North Island of New Zealand. It sees the film as a continuation of Barclay's method of activist film-making, which demands that Indigenous communities are represented through cultural modes and forms that extend from within the communities themselves. It also stresses the ways in which Barclay's film-making method revises a number of the traditions of activist documentary film-making. Finally, the article examines the controbersy surrounding the recutting of the film for screening on national television, seeing the event as symptomatic of the cultural tensions that exist in New Zealand over the representation of Maori activism. -- ABSTRACT

This compelling study corrects such omissions by detailing the theory and practice of alternative adaptation practices from major avant-garde directors. Avant-Garde films are often relegated to the margins because they challenge our traditional notions of what film form and style can accomplish. Directors who choose to adapt previous material run the risk of severe critical dismay; making films that are highly subjective interpretations or representations of existing texts takes courage and foresight. An avant-garde adaptation provokes spectators by making them re-think what they know about film itself, just as much as the previous source material.Adaptation and the Avant-Garde examines films by Peter Greenaway, Jean-Luc Godard, Guy Maddin, Jan Svankmajer and many others, offering illuminating insights and making us reconsider the nature of adaptation, appropriation, borrowing, and the re-imagining of previous sources. -- extract taken from the back of the book. --Notes: Formerly CIP. --

Adaptation, awards culture, and the value of prestige / Edited by Colleen Kennedy-Karpat and Eric Sandberg Cham, Switzerland: Springer International Publishing, 2017.

Mankiewicz, 1950) ; GREAT GATSBY, THE (US/AT, Baz Luhrman, 2013) ; MUSIC IN FILMS ; WOLF HALL [TV] (UK, 2015) Summary: This book explores the intersection between adaptation studies and what James F. English has called the “economy of prestige,” which includes formal prize culture as well as less tangible expressions such as canon formation, fandom, authorship, and performance. The chapters explore how prestige can affect many facets of the adaptation process, including selection, approach, and reception. The first section of this volume deals directly with cycles of influence involving prizes such as the Pulitzer, the Man Booker, and other major awards. The second section focuses on the juncture where adaptation, the canon, and awards culture meet, while the third considers alternative modes of locating and expressing prestige through adapted and adaptive intertexts. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of adaptation, cultural sociology, film, and literature. -- [taken from publishers site]Notes: Includes indexISBN: 9783319528533Contents: 1.Adaptation and Systems of Cultural Value / Eric Sandberg -- 2.The Pulitzers Go to Hollywood / Thomas Leitch -- 3.Beware of Imitations: All about Eve (1950) / Laurence Raw -- 4.Hilary Mantel's Wolf Hall(s) and the Circulation of Cultural Prestige / Eric Sandberg -- 5.Adapting Queerness, Queering Adaptation: Fun Home on Broadway / Joanna Mansbridge -- 6.Oliver's Auteurs: The Cases of Lean and Polanski / Jeffrey E.

Beginning with the history of Shakespeare on film, from Olivier's and Branagh's Hamlet, contributors examine screen versions of literary classics, from Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter and Louisa May Alcott's Little Women to Thomas Keneally's Schindler's Ark and Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting. Adaptations goes on to consider adaptation in reverse: How writers like Virginia Woolf incorporated cinematic elements into their work, and explains why there had to be a novel of Jane Campion's The Piano. Contributors examine adaptations from comics to film, such as the Batman movies, Star Trek's incarnations as a long-running tv series, and then as a sequence of movies, and 101 Dalmations' [sic] move from children's novel to cartoon to live-action film." - BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 226-238) and indexISBN: 041516737X (hbk); 0415167388 (pbk); 041516737X (hardcover : alk. paper); 0415167388 (pbk : alk. paper)LON: 14255526Contents: Part 1: an overview -- Adaptations: the contemporary dilemmas / Imelda Whelehan; Part 2: from text to screen -- Introduction / Deborah Cartmell -- The Shakespeare on screen industry / Deborah Cartmell -- Conservative Austen, radical Austen: Sense and Sensibility from text to screen / Julian North -- From Emma to Clueless: taste, pleasure and the scene of history / Esther Sonnet -- Imagining the puritan body: the 1995 cinematic version of Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter / Roger Bromley -- Four Little Women: three films and a novel / Pat Kirkham and Sarah Warren -- Will Hollywood never learn?

"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.

Delving equally into the individual approaches of directors and writers, Hsiu-Chuang Deppman initiates readers into the exciting possibilities emanating from the world of Chinese cinema. The seven in-depth studies include a diverse array of forms (cinematic adaptation of literature, literary adaptation of film, auto-adaptation, and non-narrative adaptation) and a variety of genres (martial arts, melodrama, romance, autobiography, documentary drama). Complementing this formal diversity is a geographical range that far exceeds the cultural, linguistic, and physical boundaries of China. The directors represented here also work in the U.S. and Europe and reflect the growing international resources of Chinese-language cinema." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references (p. 215-233) and indexISBN: 9780824834548Donation: donated by Senses of Cinema 2013Contents: -- acknowledgments -- introduction -- 1.

This book provides the first study which systematically explores the ‘coming of age’ theme in Australian feature films produced since the turn of the millennium, foregrounding how films use a range of diverse (his)stories to respond to the centrality of this theme.
Rather than focussing on ‘coming of age’ mainly in its portrayal of a (successful) maturation process, this study explores the possibilities inherent in what is conceived of as a ‘permanently’ transitional ‘coming of age’ process, providing a crucial starting point for the re-definition of national fictions. A range of cinematic genres, including the road movie, crime film, sport film, romance and musical, is used to challenge and (to varying degrees) destabilise the national myth of Australia as a youthful, egalitarian society with a chance and ‘fair go’ for everyone. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9783825369187

In a reading of the formal aspects in film imagery in contemporary British films spanning social realist, melodrama and horror genres, Hockenhull demonstrates how the spiritual aspects of landscape and nature mobilise a Neo-Romantic effect. She traces the influence of Romanticism and notions of the Sublime in key British films including 'Sweet Sixteen', 'The Queen', 'Ratcatcher', 'Eden Lake', '28 Days Later', 'My Summer of Love' and 'The Last Great Wilderness'. Operating at the intersection between film theory, art theory and aesthetics, this is a vital contribution which enables a fuller, multidimensional understanding of cinematic experience." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9781848859012Donation: donated by Senses of Cinema, 2014

Affective authorship : contemporary Asian Australian documentary in Studies in Australasian cinema (2008) vol.2 iss.2 p.157-170
Author: Smaill, Belinda PhysDes: ArticleSubject: DOCUMENTARY FILMS. AUSTRALIA ; ASIANS IN FILMS. AUSTRALIA ; ETHNIC GROUPS AND THE CINEMA ; PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF FILMS ; FINISHED PEOPLE, THE (AT, Khoa Do, 2003) ; LETTERS TO ALI (AT, Clara Law, 2004) ; SADNESS: A MONOLOGUE BY WILLIAM YANG (AT, Tony Ayres, 1999) ; CHINESE TAKEAWAY (AT, Mitzi Goldman, 2002) Summary: Documentary is a genre not widely understood through its capacity to engage the emotions. This article works to acknowledge the affective labour performed by documentary and, more specifically, the way emotions give meaning to documentary subjects. The analysis explores the production of Asian Australian subjects as documentary authors in four prominent films produced over the previous decade: Chinese Takeaway (Mitzi Goldman, 2002), Sadness: A Monologue by William Yang (Tony Ayres, 1999), The Finished People (Khoa Do, 2003) and Letters to Ali (Clara Law. 2004). These texts allow for a fruitful examination of the way the emotions that shape the expression of these author-subjects, such as mourning and care, might impact on the documentary representation of cultural otherness. Asian Australian subjectivity coalesces in and around these texts in a manner that is founded on the activity of mourning. Included here are not only the bereavements of loved ones, but also the losses that are bound to the movements of modernity, such as the lost fullness which is the promise of diaspora, the failure or absence of universal citizenship and the lack of safety in life lived in advanced capitalism. This article explores not only the absences suggested in these films, but also how these absences present a site of ethical encounter for the viewer that both resists reducing and assimilating the Asian Australian author to a devalued ethnic other while also addressing a community of viewers through a relation of reciprocity based in caring attachments to the social realm. -- AbstractNotes: Part of Special Issue: Transnational Asian Australian Cinema.

After taste : cultural value and the moving image / edited by Julia Vassilieva and Constantine Verevis Abingdon: Routledge, 2012.
Call No: 62(04) AFTSource: KPlace: AbingdonPublisher: RoutledgePubDate: 2012PhysDes: viii, 173 pages ; 25 cm.Subject: B-MOVIES ; CRITICISM ; RECEPTION ; AMATEUR FILMS ; LOW BUDGET FILMS ; CULTURE AND THE CINEMA ; SOCIETY AND THE CINEMA ; POPULAR CULTURE AND THE CINEMA Summary: In the wake of the debates over high/low culture distinction spilling into the effective dismantling of the boundary that once separated them, the past decade has seen the explosion of ‘bad taste’ production on screen. Starting with paracinema or ‘badfilm’ – a movement that has grown up around sleazy, excessive, or poorly executed B-movies and has come to encompass disreputable and unworthy films – this trend has been evident in various formats: on television and in video-art, low-budget and straight to TV films, amateur and home movies. The proliferation of trash on screen can be seen as delivering the final blow to the vexed issue of taste.
More importantly, it prompts a reconsideration of some critical issues surrounding production, circulation, understanding and teaching of ‘bad objects’ in the media. This collection of essays, written by international film and television scholars, provides detailed critical analysis of the issues surrounding judgements of cultural value and taste, feeling and affect, cultural morals and politics, research methodologies and teaching strategies in the new landscape of ‘after taste’ media. Addressing global and local developments – from global Hollywood to Australian indigenous film and television, through auteurs Sergei Eisenstein to Jerry Bruckheimer, on to examples such as Twilight to Sukiyaki Western Django – the essays in this book offer a range of critical tools for understanding the recent shifts affecting cultural, aesthetic and political value of the moving image.

Today she is best known as the innovative “mother” of the French New Wave film movement of the 1950s and '60s and for her multimedia art exhibitions. Varying her use of different media, she is a figure who defies easy categorization. In this extensively researched book, Rebecca J. DeRoo demonstrates how Varda draws upon the histories of art, photography, and film to complicate the overt narratives in her works and to advance contemporary cultural politics. Based on interviews with Varda and unparalleled access to Varda's archives, this interdisciplinary study constructs new frameworks for understanding one of the most versatile talents in twentieth and twenty-first century culture.

The Alexander Medvedkin Reader / Alexander Medvedkin; Translated by Nikita Lary and Jay Leyda Chicago; London: The University of Chicago Press, 2016.
Call No: 620 MED LARAuthor: Medvedkin, Alexander Place: Chicago; LondonPublisher: The University of Chicago PressPubDate: 2016PhysDes: xv, 356 pages : illustrations ; 24 cmSeries: Cinema and modernitySubject: MEDVEKIN, ALEXANDER ; MARKER, CHRIS ; SCHASTYE [HAPPINESS] (UR, Alexander Medvedkin, 1935) Summary: "Filmmaker Alexander Medvedkin (1900–89), a contemporary of Sergei Eisenstein and Alexander Dovzhenko, is celebrated today for his unique form of “total” documentary cinema, which aimed to bridge the distance between film and life, as well as for his use of satire during a period when the Soviet authorities preferred that laughter be confined to narrowly prescribed channels. This collection of selected writings by Medvedkin is the first of its kind and reveals how his work is a crucial link in the history of documentary film. Although he was a dedicated Communist, Medvedkin’s satirical approach and social critiques ultimately led to his suppression by the Soviet regime. State institutions held back or marginalized his work, and for many years, his films were assumed to have been lost or destroyed. These texts, many assembled for this volume by Medvedkin himself, document for the first time his considerable achievements, experiments in film and theater, and attempts to develop satire as a major Soviet film genre. Through scripts, letters, autobiographical writings, and more, we see a Medvedkin supported and admired by figures like Eisenstein, Dovzhenko, and Maxim Gorky." -- Publisher's websiteNotes: Includes notes, glossary and index; translated from RussianISBN: 9780266296272Donation: Senses of CinemaContents: On the front lines of war and revolution -- 1.

'Alternative Worlds in Hollywood Cinema' is the first book to analyze these imaginary realms, tracing their construction and development across periods, genres and history.
"Through an analysis of such landmark films as 'The Wizard of Oz', 'It's a Wonderful Life' and 'Groundhog Day', Walters reveals how unconventional worlds are crucial to each film's dramatic agenda and narrative structure. This groundbreaking volume unifies decades of divergent work by film scholars and points the way towards a new theoretical framework for understanding fantasy in the context of popular film. 'Alternative Worlds in Hollywood Cinema' will be an essential resource for film studies scholars and movie buffs alike."

The resulting portrait reveals a quixotic man whose films continue to delight and challenge audiences, both in the United States and beyond.Notes: Includes index and bibliographyISBN: 0571220894

Ambiguity and film criticism : reasonable doubt / Hoi Lun Law Cham, Switzerland: Palgrave Macmillan, 26/02/2021.

Ambiguity typically describes the condition of multiple meanings. But we can find multiple meanings in what appears unambiguous to us. So, what makes ambiguity ambiguous? This study argues that a sense of uncertainty is vital to the concept. Ambiguity is what presses us to inquire into our puzzlement over a movie, to persistently ask "why is it as it is?" Notably, this account of the concept is also an account of its criticism. It recognises that a satisfying assessment of what is ambiguous involves both our reason and doubt; that is, reason and doubt can work together in our practice of reading. This book, then, considers ambiguity as a form of reasonable doubt, one that invites us to reflect on our critical efforts, rethinking the operation of film criticism. -- cover blurbISBN: 9783030629472Contents: Introduction: Rethinking Ambiguity -- Part One: Considering Context and Convention -- 1.

Unlike opinionated "Top 100" and arbitrary "Best of" lists, these are the real thing: groundbreaking films that make up the backbone of American cinema. Some are well-known, such as Citizen Kane, Casablanca, The Godfather, and Toy Story. Others are more obscure - Blacksmithing Scene, Mom and Dad, Chulas Fronteras, and Free Radicals. Daniel Eagan's beautifully written and authoritative book is for anyone who loves American movies and who wants to learn more about them.
Each of the 500 titles in the National Film Registry is covered in a detailed essay that includes cast, credits, and major awards, as well as screening information.

Hogan, 2003) ; GREAT GATSBY, THE (US/AT, Baz Luhrman, 2013) Summary: "This edited collection assesses the complex historical and contemporary relationships between US and Australian cinema by tapping directly into discussions of national cinema, transnationalism and global Hollywood. While most equivalent studies aim to define national cinema as independent from or in competition with Hollywood, this collection explores a more porous set of relationships through the varied production, distribution and exhibition associations between Australia and the US. To explore this idea, the book investigates the influence that Australia has had on US cinema through the exportation of its stars, directors and other production personnel to Hollywood, while also charting the sustained influence of US cinema on Australia over the last hundred years. It takes two key points in time—the 1920s and 1930s and the last twenty years—to explore how particular patterns of localism, nationalism, colonialism, transnationalism and globalisation have shaped its course over the last century. The contributors re-examine the concept and definition of Australian cinema in regard to a range of local, international and global practices and trends that blur neat categorisations of national cinema. Although this concentration on US production, or influence, is particularly acute in relation to developments such as the opening of international film studios in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide and the Gold Coast over the last thirty years, the book also examines a range of Hollywood financed and/or conceived films shot in Australia since the 1920s." -- BOOK BACK COVERNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9783319666754Donation: Stephen GaunsonContents: -- 1 Where I'm Calling From: An American-Australian Cinema? / Peter C Kunze -- pt I Across the Pacific: Looking to America -- 2 Rudimentary Modernism: Ken G Hall, Rear-Projection and 1930s Hollywood / Adrian Danks -- 3 Simulated Scenery: Travel Cinema, Special Effects and For the Term of His Natural Life / Leslie DeLassus -- 4 Representations and Hybridizations in First Nation Cinema: Change and Newness by Fusion / Jane Mills -- 5 Of Mothers and Madwomen: Mining the Emotional Terrain of Toni Collette's Anti-Star Persona / Fincina Hopgood -- pt II The View From There: Australian Films in the US -- 6 Accented Relations: Mad Max on US Screens / Tessa Dwyer -- 7 Talking Trash with Tarantino: Auteurism, Aesthetics and Authority in Not Quite Hollywood / Peter C Kunze -- 8 Australian Horror Movies and the American Market / Mark David Ryan -- 9 The Terrible Terrace: Australian Gothic Reimagined and the (Inner) Suburban Horror of The Babadook / Amanda Howell -- pt III Here and There: Crossing Between Australian, US and International Cinemas -- 10 American Cartel: Block Bookings and the Paramount Plan / Stephen Gaunson -- 11 The Multiplex Era / Jock Given -- 12 "Zest to the jaded movie palate": Wallace Worsley, Scott R Dunlap and The Romance of Runnibede / Jeannette Delamoir -- 13 Defining Neverland: P J Hogan, J M Barrie and Peter Pan in Post-Mabo Australia / Jerod Ra'Del Hollyfield -- 14 Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby Telling a National Iconic Story Through a Transnational Lens / Lesley Hawkes -- index --

The American comic book industry and Hollywood / Alisa Perren and Gregory Steirer London: bfi Publishing,
Call No: 753.5 PERAuthor: Perren, Alisa ; Steirer, Gregory Edition: 2021Place: LondonPublisher: bfi PublishingPhysDes: 250 pages ; 24 cmSubject: COMIC STRIPS AND THE CINEMA ; COMIC STRIPS ; COMIC STRIP CHARACTERS IN FILMS ; SUPERHEROES IN FILMS ; MARVEL ; MARVEL ENTERTAINMENT ; SUPERMAN IN FILMS Summary: The American Comic Book Industry and Hollywood traces the evolving relationship between the American comic book industry and Hollywood from the launch of X-Men, Spider-Man, and Smallville in the early 2000s through the ascent of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the Arrowverse, and the Walking Dead Universe in the 2010s.
Perren and Steirer illustrate how the American comic book industry simultaneously has functioned throughout the first two decades of the twenty-first century as a relatively self-contained business characterized by its own organizational structures, business models, managerial discourses, production cultures, and professional identities even as it has remained dependent on Hollywood for revenue from IP licensing. The authors' expansive view of the industry includes not only a discussion of the “Big Two,” Marvel/Disney and DC Comics/Time Warner, but also a survey of the larger comics ecosystem. Other key industry players, including independent publishers BOOM! Studios, IDW, and Image, digital distributor ComiXology, and management-production company Circle of Confusion, all receive attention. Drawing from interviews, fieldwork, archival research, and trade analysis, The American Comic Book Industry and Hollywood provides a road map to understanding the operations of the comic book industry while also offering new models for undertaking trans- and inter-industrial analysis. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781844579419Contents: Introduction: The More Things Change…: The American Comic Book Industry and Hollywood in the Twenty-First Century -- 1 Comics Pros Go to Hollywood: The Historical Evolution of the Comics-Hollywood Relationship -- 2 Comic Books and the Economics of Intellectual Property Production -- 3 Drawing Lines: The Place of Comic Book Artists and Writers in Hollywood -- 4 Synergy in Theory and in Practice: Comic Books and the Contemporary Media Conglomerate -- 5 Organizational (Dis-)Integration: Publisher-Hollywood Relationships in the Twenty-First Century -- 6 From Dental Floss to Dental Tape: The Strange Case of Digital Comics -- Distribution -- Afterword: Days of Future Present: The View from 2020

The Boston and Cambridge area is notable for nurturing these approaches to documentary film via institutions such as the MIT Film Section and the Film Study Center, the Carpenter Center and the Visual and Environmental Studies Department at Harvard. Scott MacDonald uses pragmatism's focus on empirical experience as a basis for measuring the groundbreaking achievements of such influential filmmakers as John Marshall, Robert Gardner, Timothy Asch, Ed Pincus, Miriam Weinstein, Alfred Guzzetti, Ross McElwee, Robb Moss, Nina Davenport, Steve Ascher and Jeanne Jordan, Michel Negroponte, John Gianvito, Alexander Olch, Amie Siegel, Ilisa Barbash, and Lucien Castaing-Taylor. By exploring the cinematic, personal, and professional relationships between these accomplished filmmakers, MacDonald shows how a pioneering, engaged, and uniquely cosmopolitan approach to documentary developed over the past half century.

In this major examination of modern American cinema, one of our leading film critics ponders this question - and produces a wide-screen picture of the answer. Here in detail are the careers and creative milestones of the new "Whiz Kids" of hollywood - such glittering names as Scorsese, De Palma, Lucas, Spielberg, Altman, Mazursky, and Coppola. Here are the new masters of comedy - Neil Simon, Mel Brooks, Woody Allen. Here are the blockbusters that made fiscal history- Jaws, The Exorcist, the Godfather, Star Wars, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Nashville, Superman, and all the others. Here, too, are the masterpieces that passed unnoticed, and the disasters that Hollywood would like to forget. Here are the new writers turning out novelizations of screenplays and screenplays of novels, and the current and rising stars who collectively represent America's vision of glamour and aristocracy. Above all, here is a bottom-line report on the new economics that have turned Hollywood from an old-fashioned industry centered on making movies into a "leisure-time" business obsessed with making money for coporate owners. Add to this a complete rundown of the top critics' choice for the best films of the decade, and a comprehensive "Who's Who" in current American filmmaking, and you have American Film Now- the definitve guide to the film industry as it is today and as it will be tomorrow."

AUSTRALIA Summary: "Ana Kokkinos is an Australian screenwriter, producer and director who has worked in film and television for almost thirty years. Best known for her fictional films - Antamosi, Only the Brave, Head On, The Book of Revelation and Blessed - her work is often bold and confrontational in its exploration of the alienation, estrangement and visceral distresses of those outside the mainstream. In the first major study of the director, Ana Kokkinos: An Oeuvre of Outsiders offers new readings of and across her fictional oeuvre by broadly tracing the deployment of the outsider as an organising motif." - taken from back cover.Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.

Ann Hui's Song of the exile / Audrey Yue Hong Kong: Hong Kong University Press, 2010.
Call No: 79KET YUEAuthor: Yue, Audrey Source: HKPlace: Hong KongPublisher: Hong Kong University PressPubDate: 2010PhysDes: xii, 148 p. : ill. ; 19 cmSeries: The New Hong Kong cinema seriesSubject: IMPERIALISM AND THE CINEMA ; HUI, ANN ; KE TU CHIU HEN (HK/TZ, Ann Hui, 1990) Summary: "With due emphases on diasporic intimacies, cine-feminism, and transcultural literacy, Audrey Yue has written a sensitive and lucid study, doing justice to a remarkable film by a remarkable director."---Rey Chow, Duke University --
"This book pushes the boundaries of existing studies on Hong Kong cinema studies. Yue provides us with innovative ways of reading intimacy in the diaspora: as nostalgia for the familiar or idealised; as cultural memories that make up diasporic archives; as modes of transformation of kinship Structures; as affects produced through new media technologies. The book concludes with a self-reflexive exploration of teaching Song in Australia. By situating the film under the rubric of critical multiculturalism, Yue demonstrates how the teaching of postcolonial cinema can be sustained as a political pedagogy that resists the pluralist demands of a neoliberal curriculum. This is a carefully researched, rigorously analytical and intellectually profound study that will make its mark in the fields of diaspora, transcultural communication and cinema studies."---Jacqueline Lo, Australian National University --
The resolutely independent filmmaker Ann On-wah Hui continues to inspire critical acclaim for her sensitive portrayals of numerous Hong Kong tragedies and marginalized populations. In a pioneering career spanning three decades, Hui has been director, producer, writer and actress for more than 30 films. --
In this work, Audrey Yue analyses a 1990 film considered by many to be one of Hui's most haunting and poignant works, Song of the Exile. The semi-autobiographical film depicts a daughter's coming to terms with her mother's Japanese identity. Themes of cross-cultural alienation, divided loyalties and generational reconciliation resonate strongly amid the migration and displacement pressures surrounding Hong Kong in the early 1990s. Even now, more than a decade after the 1997 Handover, the film is a perennial favourite among returning Hong Kong emigrants and international cinema students. --
This book examines how Hui challenges the myth of the original home as singular, familial and romantic, and constructs the second home as a new space for Hong Kong modernity. Yue also discusses the teaching of the film in the diaspora, demonstrating its potential as an affective and performative text of transcultural literacy and diasporic negotiations in the cross-cultural classroom. --Book Jacket.Notes: includes filmography; includes bibliographical referencesISBN: 9789888028757Contents: -- Series Preface -- Acknowledgements -- Introduction -- 1.

This study is divided into two parts and locates the (postmodern) Gothic in twelve Australian/New Zealand films ranging from Ted Kotcheffs Wake in Fright (1971) to Peter Jacksons Heavenly Creatures (1994). Part one theorizes the Gothic as a subversive cultural mode that foreshadows postmodernism in terms of its antithetical relationship with Enlightenment ideals. Interconnections are made between proto-postmodern aspects of early Gothic literature and the appropriation and intensification of these aspects in what has been dubbed the postmodern Gothic. The dissertation then argues that the Antipodes was/is constructed through Euro-centric discourse(s) as a Gothic/(proto)-postmodern space or place, this construction manifest in, and becoming intertwined with the postmodern in post 1970s Antipodean cinema. In part two, a cross-section of Australian/New Zealand films is organized into cinematic sub-genres in line with their similar thematic preoccupations and settings, all films argued as reflecting a marked postmodern Gothic sensibility. In its conclusion, the study finds that S2Antipodean Gothic cinemaS3, particularly since the 1970s, can be strongly characterized by its combining of Gothic/postmodernist modes of representation, this convergence constitutive of a postmodernized version of the Gothic which is heavily influenced by Euro-centric constructions of the Antipodes in Gothic/(proto)-postmodern related terms.

Keller reframes the history of cinephilia from the earliest days of film through the French New Wave and into the streaming era, arguing that love and fear have shaped the cinematic experience from its earliest days. This anxious love for the cinema marks both institutional practices and personal experiences, from the curation of the moviegoing experience to the creation of community and identity through film festivals to posting on social media. Through a detailed analysis of films and film history, Keller examines how changes in cinema practice and spectatorship create anxiety even as they inspire nostalgia. Anxious Cinephilia offers a new theoretical approach to the relationship between spectator and cinema and reimagines the concept of cinephilia to embrace its diverse forms and its uncertain future. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780231180870Contents: Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.

Cynical and stylish, bloody and baroque, Euro-westerns replaced straight-shooting sheriffs and courageous cowboys with amoral adventurers, whose murderous methods would shock the heroes of Hollywood Westerns. These films became box-office sensations around the world, and their influence can still be felt today.
Any Gun Can Play puts the phenomenon into perspective, exploring the films' wider reaches, their recurrent themes, characters, quirks and motifs. It examines Euro-westerns in relation to their American ancestors and the mechanics of the Italian popular film industry, and spotlights the unsung actors, directors and other artists who subverted the 'code' of the Western and dragged it into the modern age.
Based on years of research backed up by interviews with many of the genre's leading lights, including actors Franco Nero, Giuliano Gemma and Gianni Garko, writer Sergio Donati, and directors Sergio Sollima and Giuliano Carnimeo, Any Gun Can Play will satisfy both connoisseurs and the curious.
Complete with a foreword by Euro-Western legend Franco Nero, this stunningly illustrated reference guide takes aim at the lingering notion that the genre has little to offer beyond the 'Dollars' films and a fistful of others, exposing the full, vibrant history of the Euro-western. -- publisher's web siteNotes: Foreword by Franco NeroISBN: 9781903254615

Through two hundred stills, full colour poster reproductions, line drawings, and an intensely researched text, this fascinating volume studies the mass cinema ape-fantasies from pre-history to the amazingly successful "Planet of the Apes" series. It delves deeply into the most famous ape of all- King Kong- and into the split between his nature and man's. What exactly did King Kong represent? Was he a brute or a lover? Was King Kong the personification of destruction and lust, or was he man's hopeless pursuit of the woman in white? By studying such movies as King Kong, Beauty and the Beast, Blonde Venus, The Return of the Ape Man, Circus of Horrors, Gorilla at Large, Morgan and many others, this exciting cinematic history illuminates that dark place where the beast still snarls in man."- BOOK JACKETNotes: Published by Lorrimer under title, Ape; the kingdom of Kong.ISBN: 0517521563Donation: donated by the family of Wayne Levy, 2006Contents: Contents-- Descent of Ape: page 7 -- Making of Kong: page 27 -- Kin of Kong: page:53 -- Ape Dreams: page 77

By looking at blockbusters that play with general annihilation while also paying close attention to films like Melancholia, Cloverfield, Blade Runner, and Twelve Monkeys, this book suggests that in the apocalyptic genre, film gnaws at its own limit.
Apocalypse-cinema is, at the same time and with the same double blow, the end of the world and the end of the film. It is the consummation and the (self-)consumption of cinema, in the form of an acinema that Lyotard evoked as the nihilistic horizon of filmic economy. The innumerable countdowns, dazzling radiations, freeze-overs, and seismic cracks and crevices are but other names and pretexts for staging film itself, with its economy of time and its rewinds, its overexposed images and fades to white, its freeze-frames and digital touch-ups.
The apocalyptic genre is not just one genre among others: It plays with the very conditions of possibility of cinema. And it bears witness to the fact that, every time, in each and every film, what Jean-Luc Nancy called the cine-world is exposed on the verge of disappearing.
In a Postface specially written for the English edition, Szendy extends his argument into a debate with speculative materialism. Apocalypse-cinema, he argues, announces itself as cinders that question the “ultratestimonial” structure of the filmic gaze. The cine-eye, he argues, eludes the correlationism and anthropomorphic structure that speculative materialists have placed under critique, allowing only the ashes it bears to be heard. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780823264810

Dire predictions about our future or the demise of planet earth persist. Even fictional representations depict narratives of decay and the end of a commonly shared social reality. Along with recurring Hollywood blockbusters that imagine the end of the world, there has been a new wave of zombie features as well as independent films that offer various visions of the future.
The Apocalypse in Film: Dystopias, Disasters, and Other Visions about the End of the World offers an overview of Armageddon in film from the silent era to the present. This collection of essays discusses how such films reflect social anxieties—ones that are linked to economic, ecological, and cultural factors. Featuring a broad spectrum of international scholars specializing in different historical genres and methodologies, these essays look at a number of films, including the silent classic The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the black comedy Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, the Mayan calendar disaster epic, 2012, and in particular, Lars Von Trier’s Melancholia, the focus of several essays.
As some filmmakers translate the anxiety about a changing global climate and geo-political relations into visions of the apocalypse, others articulate worries about the planet’s future by depicting chemical warfare, environmental disasters, or human made destruction. This book analyzes the emergence of apocalyptic and dystopic narratives and explores the political and social situations on which these films are based. Contributing to the dialogue on dystopic culture in war and peace, The Apocalypse in Film will be of interest to scholars in film and media studies, border studies, gender studies, sociology, and political science. -- taken from publisher's siteNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9781442260276Donation: donated by Senses of Cinema, 2016Contents: Introduction / Karen A.

Archaic modernism : queer poetics in the cinema of Pier Paolo Pasolini / Daniel Humphrey Detroit, Michigan: Wayne State University Press, Nov. 2020.
Call No: 749.4 HUMAuthor: Humprey, Daniel Edition: 2020Place: Detroit, MichiganPublisher: Wayne State University PressPubDate: Nov. 2020PhysDes: 172 pages : illustrated ; 24 cmSubject: PASOLINI, PIER PAOLO ; EDIPO RE (IT, Pier Paolo Pasolini, 1967) ; MEDEA (IT/FR/GW, Pier Paolo Pasolini, 1969) Summary: In Archaic Modernism, Daniel Humphrey offers the first book-length, English-language examination of three adaptations of Greek tragedy produced by the gay and Marxist Italian filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini: Oedipus Rex (1967), Medea (1969), and Notes Towards an African Orestes (1970/1973). Considering Pasolini’s own theories of a "Cinema of Poetry" alongside Jacques Derrida’s concept of écriture, as well as more recent scholarship by queer theory scholars advocating for an antirelational and antisocial subjectivity, Humphrey maintains that Pasolini’s Greek tragedy films exemplify a paradoxical sense of "archaic modernism" that is at the very heart of the filmmaker’s project. More daringly, he contends that they ultimately reveal the queer roots of Western civilization’s formative texts.
Archaic Modernism is comprised of three chapters. Chapter 1 focuses on Oedipus Rex, assessing both the filmic language employed and the deeply queer mythological source material that haunts the tragedy even as it remains largely at a subtextual yet palpable level. Chapter 2 extends and deepens the concept of queer fate and queer negativity in a scene-by-scene analysis of Medea. Chapter 3 looks at the most obscure of Pasolini’s feature length films, Notes Towards an African Orestes, a film long misunderstood as an unwitting failure, but which could perhaps best be understood as a deliberate, sacrificial act on the filmmaker’s part. Considering the film as the third in an informal, maybe unconscious, trilogy, Humphrey concludes his monograph by arguing that this "trilogy of myth" can best be understood as a deconstruction, gradually more and more severe, of three of the most important origin tales of Western civilization.
Archaic Modernism makes the case that these three films are as essential as those Pasolini films more often studied in the Anglophone world: Mamma Roma, The Gospel According to Matthew, Teorema, The Trilogy of Life, and Salò, and that they are of continuing, perhaps even increasing, value today. This book is of specific interest to scholars, students, and researchers of film and queer studies. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780814343104

(US, Gordon Douglas, 1954) ; KISS ME DEADLY (US, Robert Aldrich, 1955) ; REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE (US, Nicholas Ray, 1955) Summary: " An Army of Phantoms- a major new work of film history and cultural criticism from J. Hoberman, one of the foremost film critics writing today addresses the dynamic synergy of American politics and American popular culture during the Cold War's first decade.
Heralded by a mushroom cloud over Hiroshima, the years between 1946 and 1956 brought an explosion of affluence and anxiety. Along with U.S. dominance over Europe and a new war in Asia came the birth of the civil rights movement and the first stirrings of a new youth culture. The period saw the movie industry purged of its political left at the same time as the ideological action hero John Wayne reached the peak of his career.
Analyzing Hollywood's cavalry Westerns, apocalyptic sci-fi flicks, and biblical spectaculars, along with media events, congressional hearings and political campaigns, and drawing on FBI files and studio records, Hoberman has orchestrated a colorful, sometimes surreal pageant wherein Cecil B. DeMille rubs shoulders with Douglas MacArthur, atomic tests are shown on live TV, God talks on the radio, and Joe McCarthy is bracketed with Marilyn Monroe.
Essential reading for film and history buffs, An Army of Phantoms expands on the analysis of the 1960's found in Hoberman's critically acclaimed The Dream Life and offers a lively and astute history of film that is also, to paraphrase Jean-Luc Godard, about the film of history." --Book Jacket.Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p.

For the past fifty years, the love/hate affair between the two has triggered vital aesthetic, social and political responses that constantly renew the way we understand our age. This book traces the story from early spatial experiments with film and video technologies to the current widespread use of projected images in museums and galleries. Why has there been a turn to the cinematic in contemporary art? What happens to the moving image when it shifts from the black box to the white cube, when cinema is exhibited? How does this challenge the traditional mediums of film, painting and sculpture? 'Art and the Moving Image' gathers together key texts including new, translated and previously unavailable essays by eminent writers and theorists including Giorgio Agamben, Beatriz Colomina, Serge Daney, Rosalind Krauss, Maurizio Lazzaratto and Peter Wollen. It offers an essential introduction to the complex field of art and the projected image for both students and general readers." -- Publisher's website.Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9781854376251Donation: Adrian MilesContents: Preface / Charles Esche -- Introduction / Tanya Leighton -- Colour plates -- Part I.

It reveals how the visual culture that gave rise to cinema has itself been shaped and informed by the development of painting, the oldest of the art forms.Featuring stunning images from classic films and iconic artwork, this book will build your appreciation of the history of art, enrich your understanding of the visual language of film, and help to feed that understanding into your own original filmmaking" -- BACK COVER BOOK BLURBNotes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9781472580658Donation: Senses of CinemaContents: Introduction.

The art of govenment : Khoa Do's The finished people and the policy reform of Community Cultural Development in Studies in Australasian cinema (2008) vol.2 iss.3 p.177-193
Author: Brook, Scott PhysDes: ArticleSubject: ASIANS AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA ; ASIANS IN FILMS. AUSTRALIA ; NATIONAL CULTURE AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA ; FINISHED PEOPLE, THE (AT, Khoa Do, 2003) Summary: This article considers the production of the independent feature The Finished People (Khoa Do, 2003) in terms of a key factor reviewers and critics chose to play down: namely, that the director sought to capture public interest in Cabramatta (a suburb in Sydney's south west promoted as Australia's ‘most multicultural suburb’) in order to lift a Community Cultural Development (CCD) project out of the suburbs and deliver it to audiences of art-house cinema. While the film's representational strategies clearly reflect a tradition of independent Asian Australian cinema that critically negotiates the identity politics of state-sponsored multiculturalism, the film's mode of production had less to do with the avant-garde agendas reviewers compared it with, and more to do with an enduring governmental regime of pastoral pedagogy dedicated to the correction of ‘at risk’ subjects. Furthermore, the project strongly anticipated recent policy reforms to CCD initiated by the Australia Council for the Arts in 2004. Under the flexible rubric ‘Creative Communities’ these reforms seek to steer CCD workers away from cultural development as a narrow target of government intervention, and towards a more open and flexible range of policy goals and objectives. A close reading of the film's context of production reveals how such a policy shift might be expected to increase opportunities for local content to move between fields of cultural production, even as it multiplies dilemmas of formal accountability and aesthetic evaluation. -- AbstractNotes: Part of Special Issue: Transnational Asian Australian Cinema, part 2

The art of record offers a fascinating insight into the functions of documentary in film and television. Documentary's attempts to depict reality, and to comment on it, have provoked disagreement from the 1920s to the present day. Recent debates about knowledge and representation, and about the changing character of publiv culture, have increased its interests and relevance. John Corner presents a clear overview of the theoretical issues and critical debates around documentary, and discusses the development of the main styles and approaches, including dramadocs and fly-on-the-wall. He also looks at the dual identity of work in documentary - as both artefact and as reference.The book provides a valuable detailed analysis of powerful documentary films and programmes such as the classic 1930s films Coalface and Housing Problems (on aspects of contemporary work and environment), Cathy Come Home (whose presentation of homelessness had an enormous impact) and The Life and Times of Rosie the Riveter (about the treatment of women in US factories during World War Two)." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p.

ASIA Summary: "This book explores the range and dynamism of contemporary Asian cinemas, covering East Asia (China, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan), Southeast Asia (Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia), South Asia (Bollywood), and West Asia (Iran), in order to discover what is common about them and to engender a theory or concept of "Asian Cinema". It goes beyond existing work which provides a field survey of Asian cinema, probing more deeply into the field of Asian Cinema, arguing that Asian Cinema constitutes a separate pedagogical subject, and putting forward an alternative cinematic paradigm. The book covers "styles", including the works of classical Asian Cinema masters, and specific genres such as horror films, and Bollywood and Anime, two very popular modes of Asian Cinema; "spaces", including artistic use of space and perspective in Chinese cinema, geographic and personal space in Iranian cinema, the private "erotic space" of films from South Korea and Thailand, and the persistence of the family unit in the urban spaces of Asian big cities in many Asian films; and "concepts" such as Pan-Asianism, Orientalism, Nationalism and Third Cinema. The rise of Asian nations on the world stage has been coupled with a growing interest, both inside and outside Asia, of Asian culture, of which film is increasingly an indispensable component--this book provides a rich, insightful overview of what exactly constitutes Asian Cinema." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographic references and index; Includes filmographyISBN: 9781138815780Contents: pt.

ARKADIN (FR/SP/IT, Orson Welles, 1955) ; CITIZEN KANE (US, Orson Welles, 1941) Summary: "The films of Orson Welles inhabit the spaces of cities -- from America's industrializing midlandto its noirish borderlands, from Europe's medieval fortresses to its Kafkaesque labyrinths and postwar rubblescapes. His movies take us through dark streets to confront nightmarish struggles for power, the carnivalesque and bizarre, and the shadows and light of human character. This ambitious new study explores Welles's vision of cities by following recurring themes across his work, including urban transformation, race relations and fascism, the utopian promise of cosmopolitanism, and romantic nostalgia for archaic forms of urban culture. It focuses on the personal and political foundation of Welles's cinematic cities -- the way he invents urban spaces on film to serve his dramatic, thematic, and ideological purposes. The book's critical scope draws on extensive research in international archives and builds on the work of previous scholars." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9780231173414Donation: donated by Senses of Cinema

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 siteISBN: 9780231185899Contents: Foreword (1994), by Walter Murch -- Preface -- Part I.

Author: Ryan, Mark David PhysDes: ArticleSubject: HORROR FILMS. AUSTRALIA ; INDUSTRY, FILM. AUSTRALIA ; FUNDING. AUSTRALIA ; AUDIENCES. AUSTRALIA ; WOLF CREEK (AT, Greg McLean, 2005) Summary: This article argues that the renaissance of Australian horror films in the 2000s has been driven by intersecting international market forces, domestic financing factors and technological change. It argues for two distinct tiers of production with different financing, production and distribution models.Notes: There has been a boom in Australian horror movie production in recent years.
Daybreakers (2010), Wolf Creek (2005), Rogue (2007), Undead (2003), Black
Water (2008), and Storm Warning (2006), among others, have all experienced
varying degrees of popularity, mainstream visibility and cult success in worldwide
horror markets. While Aussie horror’s renaissance is widely acknowledged in industry
literature, there is limited research into the extent of the boom and the dynamics
of production. Consequently, there are few explanations for why and how this
surge has occurred. This article argues that the recent growth in Australian horror
films has been driven by intersecting international market forces, domestic financing
factors and technological change. In so doing, it identifies two distinct tiers of
Australian horror film production: ‘mainstream’ and ‘underground’ production,
though overlap between these two tiers results in ‘high-end indie’ films capable of
cinema release. Each tier represents the high and low ends of Australian horror film
production, each with different financing, production and distribution models. -- Abstract

Hall, 1938) ; GONE TO THE GOGS (AT, Ken G. Hall, 1939) ; ANTS IN HIS PANTS (AT, William Freshman, 1939) Summary: Comedy has been a perpetual part of Australian film, in which humour reflects Australia's adaptation in times of crisis, social change and technological advances. This was never more so than in the 1930s, when Australia produced more comedy feature films than in any other decade before 1970. These films of the 1930s embraced the new technology of sound, made local vaudeville performers into movie stars, offered escape from the Depression and revealed a diverse and international Australia. In these films, Australia moved further from Empire and the bush, forged the Digger legend, responded to cultural diversity and viewed itself as a modern, urban nation. Influenced by Hollywood, Australian comedies of the 1930s adapted international styles to local points of view. Based on research at the National Film and Sound Archive, Lesley Speed's book provides new insight into Australian comedy films of the 1930s and the extraordinary period of social change in which they were produced.

Australian eco-horror and Gaia's revenge : animals, eco-nationalism and the 'new nature' in Studies in Australasian cinema (2010) vol.4 iss.1 p.43-54
Author: Simpson, Catherine PhysDes: ArticleSubject: ANIMALS IN FILMS ; NATURE IN FILMS ; HORROR FILMS. AUSTRALIA ; IMPERIALISM AND THE CINEMA AUSTRALIA ; RAZORBACK (AT, Russell Mulcahy, 1984) ; DARK AGE (AT/US, Arch Nicholson, 1988) ; ROGUE (AT, Greg Mclean, 2007) ; MARSUPIALS: THE HOWLING III, THE (AT, Philippe Mora, 1987) ; DYING BREED (AT, Jody Dwyer, 2008) Summary: This article focuses on moments in a series of key films: Razorback (Mulcahy, 1984), Dark Age (Nicholson, 1987), Rogue (McLean, 2007), Howling III: the Marsupials (Mora, 1987) and Dying Breed (Dwyer 2008). Using an 'eco-postcolonial' framework, the author argues that these films extend postcolonial anxieties over settler Australian notions of belonging and challenge the notion of human mastery over nature.Notes: We hear so much about extinction in debates around climate change. But what about those animals that go feral and then return – bigger, hungrier and angrier – to wreak revenge on humans who may have done them injustice? Using an eco-postcolonial framework, this article examines how a number of exploitation horror films have dealt with environmental topics and issues of trespass. In particular, I examine the agency of animals – crocs, pigs, thylacines and marsupial werewolves – in some key Australian eco-horror films from the last 30 years: Long Weekend (Eggleston,1978), Razorback (Mulcahy, 1984), Dark Age (Nicholson, 1987), Howling III: the Marsupials (Mora, 1987), Rogue (Greg McLean, 2007), Black Water (Nerlich & Traucki, 2007) and Dying Breed (Dwyer 2008). On the one hand, these films extend postcolonial anxieties over settler Australian notions of belonging, while on the other, they signify a cultural shift. The animals portrayed have an uncanny knack of adapting and hybridizing in order to survive, and thus they (the films and the animals) force us to acknowledge more culturally plural forms of being. In particular, these films unwittingly emphasize what Tim Low has termed the ‘new Nature’: an emerging ethic that foregrounds the complex and dynamic interrelationships of animals with humans.--Abstract

This engaging new study brings fresh perspectives, insights, and innovative approaches to a variety of films from a diversity of filmmakers. Areas of focus include the complex and contentious subjects of masculinity, femininity and feminism, the maternal, as well as the Indigenous road film and the protean Australian gothic. During the formative years of the revival, Australian films seemed to emerge from out of the blue in terms of global film history, with many features including Picnic at Hanging Rock (l975), Caddie (l976), The Last Wave (l977), The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith (l978), and My Brilliant Career (l979) receiving international distribution and enthusiastic critical acclaim with strong box office results. By the time the film revival was in full swing, not only did Australian audiences flock to theaters to see “homegrown” films, but the quantity of Australian films on overseas screens was so high that ardent critics declared this outpouring an Australian “New Wave.” The eyes of the world had turned to a compelling and largely unknown culture. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781501390029Contents: Acknowledgements -- Dedication -- In Memory Of -- Introduction -- 1.

Australian genre film / edited by Kelly McWilliam and Mark David Ryan New York: Routledge,
Call No: 730(94) AUSAuthor: McWilliam, Kelly ; Ryan, Mark David Edition: 2021Place: New YorkPublisher: RoutledgePhysDes: 248 pages : illustrated ; 23 cmSeries: Rutledge advances in film studiesSubject: AUSTRALIA ; GENRES ; BIOGRAPHICAL FILMS ; COMEDIES. AUSTRALIA ; CRIME FILMS. AUSTRALIA ; HORROR FILMS. AUSTRALIA ; MUSICALS. AUSTRALIA ; ROAD MOVIES. AUSTRALIA ; TEEN FILMS ; WAR FILMS AUSTRALIA Summary: Australian Genre Film interrogates key genres at the core of Australia’s so-called new golden age of genre cinema, establishing the foundation on which more sustained research on film genre in Australian cinema can develop.
The book examines what characterises Australian cinema and its output in this new golden age, as contributors ask to what extent Australian genre film draws on widely understood (and largely Hollywood-based) conventions, as compared to culturally specific conventions of genre storytelling. As such, this book offers a comprehensive and up-to-date survey of Australian genre film, undertaken through original analyses of 13 significant Australian genres: action, biopics, comedy, crime, horror, musical, road movie, romance, science fiction, teen, thriller, war, and the Western.
This book will be a cornerstone work for the burgeoning field of Australian film genre studies and a must-read for academics; researchers; undergraduate students; postgraduate students; and general readers interested in film studies, media studies, cultural studies, Australian studies, and sociology. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781138603141Contents: 1.

This book examines a wide range of Australian films to trace their Gothic resemblances, characteristics and meanings. By concentrating on the occurrence of Gothic motifs, characters, landscapes and narratives, it argues for the recognition and relevance of a coherent Gothic heritage in Australian film. A plethora of Gothic representatives are considered in relation to four consistent and illuminating continuities (images of the family, ideas of monstrosity, generic hybridity and the occurrence of the sublime), and this study debates the appearance and asserts the significance of Australian Gothic films within their national, cultural, literary and cinematic traditions. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781786838896Contents: List of illustrations -- Introduction -- Familiarity -- Monstrosity -- Hybridity -- Sublimity -- Conclusion -- Filmography -- Bibliography -- Index

Titles covered were released between 1973 and 2010, a period coinciding with the revival of the long-dormant Australian film industry in the early 1970s, and continuing into the second wave of genre production spurred by the international success of the 2005 chiller Wolf Creek, The Cars That Ate Paris, The Last Wave, Roadgames, Razorback, Outback Vampires, Queen of the Damned, Black Water, and The Reef are among the titles represented. Each film is covered in a chapter that includes a cast and credits list, release information, contemporary reviews and DVD availability, as well as a synopsis and in-depth notes about the story, filmmaking techniques, acting performances, recurring themes and motifs, and overall effectiveness of the film as a work of horror.

- Provides vibrant textual studies of under-evaluated Australian international pictures
- Develops an understanding of international film production in the years following WWII and before the Australian film revival of the 1970s
- Corrects the perception that there was no significant feature film production in Australia after the 1930s and before the revival
- Offers background and important precedents for the more recent practices of global co-productions and ‘Hollywood Down-under’
Australian International Pictures examines the concept and definition of Australian film in relation to a range of local, international and global practices and trends that blur neat categorisations of national cinema. Although international co-production is particularly acute in the present day, this book examines the porous nature of Australian International filmmaking, and the intriguing transnational and cross-cultural formations created by globally targeted but locally focussed films made in Australia in the period 1946–75. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780748693061Contents: Acknowledgements -- 1.

AUSTRALIA ; PIZZA [TV] (AT, Paul Fenech, 2000) ; PIZZA [TV] (AT, Paul Fenech, 2000-) Summary: "This thesis examines changes which have occurrred since the late 1980s and early 1990s with respect to the representation of cultural diversity on Australian popular drama programming. The thesis finds that a significant number of actors of diverse cultural and linguistic background have negotiated the television industry employment process to obtain acting roles in a lead capacity. The majority of these actors are from the second generation of immigrants, who increasingly make up a significant component of Australia's multicultural population. The way in which these actors are portrayed on-screen has also shifted from one of a 'performed' ethnicity, to an 'everyday' portrayal. The thesis develops an analysis which connects the development and broad political support for multicultural policy as expressed in the National Agenda for a Multicultural Australia to the changes in both employment and representation practices in popular television programming in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The thesis addresses multicultural debates by arguing for a mainstreaming position. The thesis makes detailed comparison of cultural diversity and television in the jurisdictions of the United States, the United Kingdom and New Zealand to support the broad argument that cultural diversity policy measures produce observable outcomes in television programming." -- ABSTRACTNotes: Presented to the Creative Industries Faculty, Queensland University of Technology; Thesis (Ph.D.)--Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, 2004.

AUSTRALIA Summary: "Australia's leisure culture is legendary, and as millions of British viewers of Neighbours, fans of Yothu Yindi or drinkers of Castlemaine XXXX would attest, Australian popular culture is popular outside of Australia. Australian Popular Culture is an exciting collection of essays bringing together new perspectives on the nature and meaning of a nation's changing life. The collection also explores the idea of popular culture at large. Leading authors represent a range of approaches, backgrounds and fields to explore subjects of wide interest within the categories of 'the everyday', 'the mass media' and 'critical theory'. Chapters are devoted to the Aussie Back Yard; Vegemite; postage stamps; Australian Rules football; the introduction of television; Crocodile Dundee; The Lindy Chamberlain Affair; Spycatcher; Domesticity, leisure and love and Postmodernism and Australian Culture." -Publisher description.Notes: 2 folded leaves inserted into back of book, entitled "Australian historical studies, style sheet for book reviewers"; Some text highlighted pages 66-76ISBN: 0521466679Contents: Introduction -- Part I.

At another level it is a sketch of an internationalist progressive film culture in the same place and period. It examines some landmark films in Australian Film History and places these important works in an international context. In this work of film history Deane Williams proposes that, while these films have been understood as inferior remakes of "overseas" written, theatrical and filmic texts, these films are evidence of an Australian film culture that was a key participant in an international network of documentary practice and criticism."--BOOK JACKET.Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p.

Antony Todd traces the development of Lynch's career from cult obscurity with Eraserhead to star auteur through the release of Blue Velvet, as well as the television event of the early 1990s, Twin Peaks. He investigates how Lynch's idiosyncratic style introduced the term 'Lynchian' to the colloquial speech of new Hollywood and helped establish Lynch as the leading light among contemporary American auteurs. Through the evidence of critical and promotional ephemera and the texts carrying Lynch's name, Todd explores contemporary manners and attitudes for artistic reputation building. He also reviews the standards by which Lynch's reputation was dismantled following the release of Wild at Heart and Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me, only to be reassembled once more through films such as Lost Highway, Mulholland Dr. and INLAND EMPIRE.
This book also ventures beyond its empirical findings by addressing authorship concerns pertaining to the ways in which, and to whom, the contemporary auteur has meaning. In its account of the experiences at play in the encounter between ephemera, text and reader, Authorship and the Films of David Lynch explores how authors functions for pleasure in the modern filmgoer's everyday consumption of films."-BOOK BLURBNotes: includes bibliographical references; includes indexISBN: 9781848855809Contents: -- introduction -- 1.Towards a Textual Historicity -- 2.David Lynch: The Making of a Post-classical Auteur -- 3.Meanings and Authorships in Dune -- 4.Critical Theory and `Cruel Jokes': Principles of Ethics and Pleasure, and the Reception of Blue Velvet -- 5.Twin Peaks: The Rise and Fall of a Public Auteur -- 6.Brand Lynch -- 7.Receiving Mulholland Dr.: `A Contemporary Film Noir Directed by David Lynch' -- conclusion -- notes -- bibliography -- index --

Autism in Film and Television brings together more than a dozen essays on depictions of autism, exploring how autistic characters are signified in media and how the reception of these characters informs societal understandings of autism.
Editors Murray Pomerance and R. Barton Palmer have assembled a pioneering examination of autism’s portrayal in film and television. Contributors consider the various means by which autism has been expressed in films such as Phantom Thread, Mercury Rising, and Life Animated and in television and streaming programs including Atypical, Stranger Things, Star Trek: The Next Generation, and Community. Across media, the figure of the brilliant, accomplished, and “quirky” autist has proven especially appealing. Film and television have thus staked out a progressive position on neurodiversity by insisting on screen time for autism but have done so while frequently ignoring the true diversity of autistic experience. As a result, this volume is a welcome celebration of nonjudgmental approaches to disability, albeit one that is still freighted with stereotypes and elisions. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781477324912Contents: -- -- Preface: Two Meditations: Who Am I?

Avengers Assemble! is a vibrant and theoretically informed interrogation of one of the defining and most financially successful film franchises of the new millennium. In the first single-authored monograph on the topic of the Marvel cinematic universe, this book asks, "Why has the superhero genre reemerged so emphatically in recent years?" In an age where people have stopped going to the cinema as frequently as they used to, they returned to it in droves for the superhero film. What is it about these films that has resonated with audiences all around the globe? Are they just disposable pop culture artifacts or might they have something interesting to say about the fears and anxieties of the world we live in today? Beginning with Iron Man in 2008, this study provocatively explores both the cinematic and the televisual branches of the series across ten dynamic and original chapters from a diverse range of critical perspectives which analyse their status as an embodiment of the changing industrial practices of the blockbuster film and their symbolic potency as affective cultural artifacts that are profoundly immersed in the turbulent political climate of the era in which they were made." -- BOOK BACK COVERNotes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references and index; Also issued onlineISBN: 9780231186254Donation: Senses of CinemaContents: 1.

Or avocados? During the heady years of tax incentives and 10BA it didn't much matter to Australian investors where they put their surplus funds. For the Australian film industry, booming after the creative revival of the 1970s, the next decade became one of confusion and controversy. In THE AVOCADO PLANTATION, David Stratton gives us a comprehensive look at the making of 270 film features between 1980 and 1990. He discusses the big name attractions - GALLIPOLI, THE MAN FROM SNOWY RIVER, MAD MAX 2, CROCODILE DUNDEE, MAN OF FLOWERS, SWEETIE - and a host of lesser known films. Adventure films, horror films, love stories, comedies, they're all here: the smash hits, the turkets and the quality movies appreciated by discerning audiences. Stratton tells the behind-the-scenes stories of how the films were made - or in some casxes, un-made. He talks with directors such as Peter Weir, George Miller and Paul Cox, as well as producers, writers, actors, and crew members. Their reflections and revelations form a major part of THE AVOCADO PLANTATION." [Taken from book jacket]Notes: Includes indexISBN: 0732902509LON: 7520974Donation: Simon WincerID2: 255

Call No: 730.2 BISAuthor: Perkins, Claire ; Verevis, Constantine Source: USPlace: Albany, New YorkPublisher: State University of New York PressPubDate: c2014PhysDes: xi, 262 pages : illustrations ; 24 cmSubject: 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 BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9781438449951Contents: Introduction: B for bad cinema / Claire Perkins and Constantine Verevis; Part 1: Aesthetics -- Explosive apathy / Jeffrey Sconce -- B-grade subtitles / Tessa Dwyer -- Being in two places at the same time: the forgotten geography of rear-projection / Adrian Danks -- Redeeming cruising: tendentiously offensive, coherently incoherent, strangely pleasurable / R.

Call No: 45:93 MCGAuthor: McGee, Patrick Source: USPlace: New YorkPublisher: Palgrave MacmillanPubDate: 2012PhysDes: 209 p. ; 22 cmSubject: HISTORICAL FILMS ; HISTORY AND THE CINEMA ; HISTORY OF CINEMA ; PHILOSOPHY AND THE CINEMA ; THEORY ; AUSTRALIA (UK/AT/US, Baz Luhrmann, 2008) ; INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS (US/G, Quentin Tarantino, 2009) ; GANGS OF NEW YORK (GG/IT/US, Martin Scorsese, 2002) ; TITANIC (US, James Cameron, 1997) Summary: "In his latest book, Patrick McGee argues for the political and social significance of mass culture through the interpretation of four recent big-budget movies: Titanic, Gangs of New York, Australia, and Inglourious Basterds. Through philosophical and historical contextualization, he reveals the logic of what appears on the screen, a logic that shows how these films both represent and distort the historical record in order to articulate a truth that challenges conventional history as a discipline. Counterdisciplinary in its method, this exciting work asserts that no movie can ever be reduced to the absolutely authentic or the absolutely inauthentic." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9780230116511Contents: -- acknowledgments -- Introduction: truth, history, and counterdisciplinary practices in film studies -- 1: Terrible beauties: messianic time and the image of social redemption in James Cameron's Titanic. -- 2: Infinite history: Martin Scorsese's Gangs of New York and the production of the inexistent -- 3: "No dreaming, no story, nothing": Baz Luhrmann's Australia, the cinematic common, and postcolonial discourse-- Conclusion: the glorious truth about inglorious history in Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious basterds -- works cited -- index --

"Written by Sue Smith ('Brides of Christ', 'The Leaving of Liverpool', 'My Brother Jack', 'The Road from Coorain') and directed by Ray Quint ('The Secret Life of Us', 'McLeod's Daughters', 'Blue Heelers'), 'Bastard Boys' screened on ABC TV in 2007."

Call No: 722.71 BLOAuthor: Blocker, Jane Edition: 2016Place: MinneapolisPublisher: University of Minnesota PressPubDate: 2016PhysDes: 240 p. : illus. ; 22 cmSubject: MCQUEEN, STEVE ; Keaton, Buster Notes: Is there such a thing as contemporary art history? The contemporary, after all—as much as we may want to consider it otherwise—is being made history as it happens. By what means do we examine this moving target? These questions lie at the center of Jane Blocker’s Becoming Past. The important point is not whether there is—or should be—contemporary art history, Blocker argues, but how.
Focusing on a significant aspect of current art practice in which artists have engaged with historical subject matter, methods, and inquiry Blocker asks how the creation of the artist implicates and interrogates that of the art historian. She moves from art history and theater, to performance and literature as she investigates a series of works, including performances by the collaborative group Goat Island, the film Deadpan by Steve McQueen, the philosophies of science fiction writer Samuel Delany and documentary filmmaker Ross McElwee, the film Amos Fortune Road by Matthew Buckingham, and sculptures by Dario Robleto.
Many books have sought to understand the key directions of contemporary art. In contrast, Becoming Past is concerned with the application of art history in the pursuit of such trends. Setting the idea of temporality decisively in the realm of art, Blocker’s work is crucial for artists, art historians, curators, critics, and scholars of performance and cultural studies interested in the role of history in the practice of art. -- publisher's blurbISBN: 9780816696987

This new book, published in the BBFC's centenary year, traces the fascinating history of film classification, censorship and controversy in Britain, and marks an unparalleled collaboration between the BBFC and leading film critics, historians and cultural commentators. The book also features unique case studies, written by BBFC staff, focusing on significant films that have provoked debate and controversy both within the BBFC and more widely - Battleship Potemkin, The Snake Pit, A Clockwork Orange, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and many more." - taken from back cover.Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9781844574766Contents: Introduction: A Centennary Book -- 1.Censorship Under Siege: The BBFC in the Silent Era / Simon Brown -- Case Study: Battleship Potemkin (1925) / Aidan McDowell -- 2.`The People's Amusement': Cinemagoing and the BBFC, 1928-48 / Robert James -- Case Study: Island of Lost Souls (1932) / Karen Myers -- 3.From the Snake Pit to the Garden of Eden: A Time of Temptation for the Board / Steve Chibnall -- Case Study: The Snake Pit (1948) / David Hyman -- Case Study: Caged (1950) / Jason Green -- 4.The Trevelyan Years: British Censorship and 1960s Cinema / Tracy Hargreaves -- Case Study: Cape Fear (1962) / David Hyman -- Case Study: Blowup (1966) / Edward Lamberti -- 5.Wake of the Flood: Key Issues in UK Censorship, 1970-5 / Stevie Simkin -- Case Study: The Panic In Needle Park (1971) / Murray Perkins -- Case Study: WR - Misterije Organizma (WR - Mysteries of the Organism, 1971) / Craig Lapper -- Case Study: A Clockwork Orange (1971) / Karen Myers -- 6.The `Poacher Turned Gamekeeper': James Ferman and the Increasing Intervention of the Law / Alex Sinclair -- Case Study: Shivers (1975) / David Hyman -- Case Study: Die Blechtrommel (The Tin Drum, 1979) / Craig Lapper -- Case Study: Christiane F. - Wir Kinder Vom Bahnhof Zoo (Christiane F.-We Children From Zoo Station, 1981) / Craig Lapper -- 7.More Than Just a `Nasty' Decade: Classifying the Popular in the 1980s / Sian Barber -- Case Study: Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) / Edward Lamberti -- Case Study: Licence to Kill (1989) / Edward Lamberti -- 8.Head-On Collisions: The BBFC in the 1990s / Julian Petley -- Case Study: International Guerillas (1990) / Jason Green -- Case Study: Mikey (1992) / Jason Green -- 9.`The Last Days of the Board' / Robin Duval -- Case Study: Ichi the Killer (2001) / Murray Perkins -- Case Study: Lilo & Stitch (2002) / Jason Green -- 10.The Director's Commentary / David Cooke -- Case Study: 9 Songs (2004) / Caitlin O'Brien -- Case Study: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005) / Karen Myers -- 11.On the BBFC in the Digital Age -- Censorship and Classification in the Free Society / Gerard Lemos -- Reflections on the 1979 Williams Report / Geoffrey Hawthorn -- Future Technologies and How They Might Impact on Film Classification and Censorship / John Carr -- A Margin of Appreciation / Stephen Sedley -- How the World Has Changed for Children and Parents, 1912-2012 / Ann Phoenix.

GERMANY ; POLITICS IN THE CINEMA ; RUN LOLA RUN (G, Tom Tykwer, 1998) Summary: "In Berlin Replayed, Brigitta B. Wagner traces how old and new films set in Berlin created a collective urban nostalgia for the city's best and most conciliatory pasts in the face of its renewed prupose as the all-German capital. Exploring films such as Walter Ruttmann's Berlin: Symphony of a Great City, Wim Wenders's wings of Desire, Tom Tykwer's Run Lola Run, and Wolfgang Becker's Good Bye, Lenin!, the book illustrates how film has repeatedly remade the image of the city. Wagner focuses on four key periods: the golden 1920s, when the city was a major filmmaking center; the prewall 1950s, when Berlin had two idealogically opposed film industries; the politically transformative late 1980s and early 1990s; and the hyped start of the twenty-first century." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9780816691746Donation: donated by Senses of CinemaContents: Introduction: Auf wiedersehen, Berlin! -- Remake: Berlin symphonies and the myth of the weltstadt -- Generation: a 1950s place for us -- Virtuality: cinema, archive, and the interactive map of Potsdamer Platz -- Orientation: geographical didacticism and the X-films of new Berlin -- Epilogue: Berlin returns, again

The Berlin School and its global contexts : a transnational art cinema / edited by Marco Abel and Jaimey Fisher Detroit: Wayne State University Press, 2018.
Call No: 71(430) BERAuthor: Abel, Marco ; Fisher, Jaimey Edition: 2018Place: DetroitPublisher: Wayne State University PressPubDate: 2018PhysDes: viii, 356 pages : illustrated ; 23 cmSeries: Contemporary Approaches to Film and Media SeriesSubject: BERLIN SCHOOL ; ABEL, MARCO ; ADE, MAREN ; WEERASETHAKUL, APICHATPONG ; ARSLAN, THOMAS ; GRISEBACH, VALESKA ; HAUSNER, JESSICA ; HOCHHAUSLER, CHRISTOPH ; KIAROSTAMI, ABBAS ; KOHLER, ULRICH ; PETZOLD, CHRISTIAN ; TARR, BELA Summary: The Berlin School and Its Global Contexts: A Transnational Art-Cinema came about in light of the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA)’s 2013 major exhibition of works by contemporary German directors associated with the so-called Berlin School, perhaps Germany’s most important contemporary filmmaking movement. Christoph Hochhäusler, the movement’s keenest spokesperson, stated that "the Berlin School, despite what the label suggests, is not a specifically German phenomenon. All over the world there are filmmakers exploring related terrain." In response to this "transnational turn," editors Marco Abel and Jaimey Fisher have assembled a group of scholars who examine global trends and works associated with the Berlin School.
The goal of the collection is to understand the Berlin School as a fundamental part of the series of new wave films around the globe, especially those from the traditional margins of world cinema. For example, Michael Sicinski and Lutz Koepnick explore the relation of the Berlin School to cinema of Southeast Asia, including Apichatpong Weerasethakul and Tsai Ming-liang; Ira Jaffe and Roger Cook take a look at Middle Eastern film, with Nuri Bilge Ceylan and Abbas Kiarostami, respectively. The volume, however, also includes essays engaging with North American filmmakers like Kelly Reichardt and Derek Cianfrance as well as European auteurs like Antonioni, Tarr, Porumboiu, McQueen, and the Dardennes. Bringing German cinema into dialogue with this series of global cinemas emphasizes how the Berlin School manifests—whether aesthetically or thematically, politically or historically—a balancing of national particularity with global flows of various sorts. Abel and Fisher posit that since the vast majority of the films are available with English subtitles (and at times also in other languages) and recent publications on the subject have established critical momentum, this exciting filmmaking movement will continue to branch out into new directions and include new voices.
The Berlin School and Its Global Contexts folds German-language cinema back into conversations with international as well as transnational cinema. This volume will be of great interest to scholars of German and global cinema. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780814342008

(US, Robert Aldrich, 1962) ; WYLER, WILLIAM Summary: Bette Davis’s career becomes a vehicle for a deep examination of American race relations.
Bette Davis was not only one of Hollywood’s brightest stars, but also one of its most outspoken advocates on matters of race. In Bette Davis Black and White, Julia A. Stern explores this largely untold facet of Davis’s brilliant career.
Bette Davis Black and White analyzes four of Davis’s best-known pictures—Jezebel (1938), The Little Foxes (1941), In This Our Life (1942), and What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? (1962)—against the history of American race relations. Stern also weaves in memories of her own experiences as a young viewer, coming into racial consciousness watching Davis’s films on television in an all-white suburb of Chicago.
Davis’s egalitarian politics and unique collaborations with her Black costars offer Stern a window into midcentury American racial fantasy and the efforts of Black performers to disrupt it. This book incorporates testimony from Davis’s Black contemporaries, including James Baldwin and C. L. R. James, as well as the African American fans who penned letters to Warner Brothers praising Davis’s work. A unique combination of history, star study, and memoir, Bette Davis Black and White allows us to contemplate cross-racial spectatorship in new ways. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780226813868Contents: Historical Note -- Chapter 1 Introduction: Black and White -- Chapter 2 Little Foxes and Little Brown Wrens -- Chapter 3 The Poetics of Color in Jezebel -- Chapter 4 Melodramas of Blood in In This Our Life -- Chapter 5 The Whiteness of What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? -- Chapter 6 Bette Davis Black and White -- Acknowledgments -- Notes – Index.

In addition to Charles Warren's broad introductory history of the genre, the book takes a close look at ethnographic films, cinema verite, memoir and autobiography, docudramas, essay films, and newsreels, from classics like Night and Fog and Nanook of the North to more recent important work like Film about a Woman Who..., Harlan County, U.S.A., Sans Soleil, and Forest of Bliss.
Representations of reality are increasingly contested, in courtrooms and Congress, as well as in art. Asking what the art of film can achieve, Helene Keyssar considers the history of nonfiction films by women; Jay Cantor discusses film investigations of the Holocaust; Patricia Hampl looks at how autobiographical films render experience into narrative; Robert Gardner questions the filmmaker's "impulse to preserve"; and poet Susan Howe explores structures of mourning in several filmmakers. All of the books essays provide deeply felt understandings of documentary film, and of how we live with, and within, images." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 345-350) and indexISBN: 0819552879 (cl : alk. paper); 0819562904 (pbk. : alk. paper)LON: 11642141Contents: Words of welcome / Stanley Cavell -- Introduction, with a brief history of nonfiction film / Charles Warren -- Death and the image / Jay Cantor -- Memory's movies / Patricia Hampl -- Eternal Verites / William Rothman -- The toil of thought: on several nonfiction films by women / Helene Keyssar -- The camera people / Eliot Weinberger -- The impulse to preserve / Robert Gardner -- You are there / Maureen Howard -- Earth and beyond: Dusan Makaveyev's WR: Mysteries of the Organism / Charles Warren -- In search of the centaur: the essay film / Phillip Lopate -- Vertov's cinematic transposition of reality / Vlada Petric -- Sorting facts; or, nineteen ways of looking at marker / Susan Howe

In doing so, it interrogates some of the key assumptions concerning the relationship between aesthetics and the politics of identity, that have influenced and informed television drama criticism during this period.

This is the first full-length study of how contemporary entertainment technologies and media - from cable television and VHS to DVD and the Internet - shape our encounters with the movies and affect the aesthetic, cultural, and ideological definitions of cinema. Barbara Klinger explores topics such as home theater, film collecting, classic Hollywood movie reruns, repeat viewings, and Internet film parodies, providing a multifaceted view of the presentation and reception of films in U.S. households. Balancing industry history with theoretical and cultural analysis, she finds that today's cinema's powerful social presence cannot be fully grasped without considering its prolific recycling in post-theatrical venues - especially the home."--BOOK BLURBNotes: Formerly CIP.; Includes bibliographical references (p. 281-287) and indexISBN: 9780520245860Contents: The new media aristocrats: home theater and the film experience -- The contemporary cinephile: film collecting after the VCR -- Remembrance of films past: cable television and classic Hollywood cinema -- Once is not enough: the functions and pleasures of repeat viewings -- To infinity and beyond: the Web short, parody, and remediation -- Conclusion: of fortresses and film cultures

LADRI DI BICICLETTE Summary: "Bicycle Thieves (Ladri di biciclette, 1948) is unarguably one of the most important films in the history of cinema. It is also one of the most beguiling, moving and (apparently) simple pieces of narrative ever made. The film tells the story of one man and his son, as they search fruitlessly through the streets of Rome for his stolen bicycle; the bicycle which had offered the possibility of escape from the poverty and humiliation of long-term unemployment.".
"One of a cluster of extraordinary films to come out of post-war, post-Fascist Italy - loosely labelled 'neorealist' - Bicycle Thieves won an Oscar in 1949, topped the first Sight and Sound poll of the best films of all time in 1952 and has been hugely influential throughout world cinema ever since. It remains a necessary point of reference for any cinematic engagement with the labyrinthine experience of the modern city, the travails of poverty in the contemporary world, the complex bond between fathers and sons, and the capacity of the camera to capture something like the essence of all of these." "Robert S. C. Gordon 's BFI Film Classics volume shows how Bicycle Thieves is ripe for re-viewing, for rescuing from its worthy status as a neorealist 'classic'. It looks at the film's drawn-out planning and production history, the vibrant and riven context in which it was made, and the dynamic geography, geometry and sociology of the film that resulted."-- Extract taken from the back of the book.Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 122ISBN: 9781844572380Contents: 1.

In the past decade, Hollywood has endured a cataclysm on a par with the end of silent film and the demise of the studio system. Stars and directors have seen their power dwindle, while writers and producers lift their best techniques from TV, comic books, and the toy biz. The future of Hollywood is being written by powerful corporate brands like Marvel, Amazon, Netflix, and Lego, as well as censors in China. Ben Fritz chronicles this dramatic shakeup with unmatched skill, bringing equal fluency to both the financial and entertainment aspects of Hollywood. He dives deeply into the fruits of the Sony hack to show how the previous model, long a creative and commercial success, lost its way. And he looks ahead through interviews with dozens of key players at Disney, Marvel, Netflix, Amazon, IMAX, and others to discover how they have reinvented the business. He shows us, for instance, how Marvel replaced stars with "universes," and how Disney remade itself in Apple's image and reaped enormous profits. But despite the destruction of the studios' traditional playbook, Fritz argues that these seismic shifts signal the dawn of a new heyday for film. The Big Picture shows the first glimmers of this new golden age through the eyes of the creative mavericks who are defining what our movies will look like in the new era." -- Book jacket.Notes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 247-263) and index.ISBN: 9780544789760Contents: A notes on sources ix -- Introduction: Groundhog Day-How franchises killed originality in Hollywood xii -- Part 1: How Hollywood got here -- The Odd Couple: Lynton and Pascal's glory days at Sony -- Reality Bites: How everything went wrong for the movie business -- Inception: The secret origin of the superhero movie -- Revenge of the Nerds: The rise of Marvel Studios -- Spiderman: Homecoming- why Sony gave up its most valuable asset -- Star Wars: The decline of the A-list -- A Star is Born: Netflix, the new home for movie stars -- Frozen: Why studios stopped making mid-budget dramas -- Trading places: How tv stole movies' spot atop Hollywood -- Part 2: Where Hollywood is headed -- The Terminator: Disney, the perfect studio for the franchise age -- The Producers: Creativity meets franchise managment -- The Shop Around the Corner: Amazon saves the indie film business -- Apt Pupil: China's shifting relationship with Hollywood -- Field of Dreams: Studio defectors and the future of nonfranchise films -- The Last Picture Show?

Some speculation is that the downturn is due to the rise of DVD, home entertainment systems, and other recreational devices (ipods), coupled with the tightening of the film to dvd to pay tv release window. There is some talk that the older multiplex cinemas are in need of upgrading as they may no longer be up to standard for a modern cinemagoing audience.Notes: -- accessed from: Factiva.

In this volume, Coleman looks at the writers, directors, and actors who have faced the mood swings and behaviour that are hallmarks of this condition. In addition to recognizing the cinematic contributions of manic depressive filmmakers, the author also looks at movies that have portrayed bipolar disorder- with varying degrees of accuracy- including Citizen Kane, Breakfast at Tiffany's, The Aviator, and Silver Linings Playbook.
From early silents of the twentith century through critically acclaimed films of today, this book compares depictions of mood swings on screen with clinical examples of actual manic depression, carefully distinguishing real from stereotypical portrayals. This fascinating study is augmented by a concise filmograohy of more than 400 feature-length films from around the world with themes of characters relating to manic depressive illness. -- Extract taken from the back of the bookNotes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9780810891944Contents: 1.A Brief Overview of Manic Depression and How It Affects Creativity -- 2.The Early Cinema and Mental Illness -- 3.The Golden Age of Silent Films and Manic Depression -- 4.1930s: Bipolar Disorder Speaks at the Movies -- 5.1940s: The Effects of World War II on Bipolar Cinema

Black Panther was a cultural phenomenon that broke box office records. Yet it wasn’t just a movie led by and starring Black artists. It grappled with ideas and conflicts central to Black life in America and helped redress the racial dynamics of the Hollywood blockbuster.
Scott Bukatman, one of the foremost scholars of superheroes and cinematic spectacle, brings his impeccable pedigree to this lively and accessible study, finding in the utopianism of Black Panther a way of re-envisioning what a superhero movie can and should be while centering the Black creators, performers, and issues behind it. He considers the superheroic Black body; the Pan-African fantasy, feminism, and Afrofuturism of Wakanda; the African American relationship to Africa; the political influence of director Ryan Coogler’s earlier movies; and the entwined performances of Chadwick Boseman’s T’Challa and Michael B. Jordan’s Killmonger. Bukatman argues that Black Panther is escapism of the best kind, offering a fantasy of liberation and social justice while demonstrating the power of popular culture to articulate ideals and raise vital questions. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781477325353Contents: Preface -- Introduction: Tell Me a Story -- The Road to Wakanda -- Black Panther’s Black Body -- The Wakandan Dream -- The Killmonger Problem -- Conclusion: Why Do We Hide? -- -- Appreciations -- Notes -- Index

It won six Oscars and has been hailed as the greatest action film ever, but it is a miracle Mad Max: Fury Road ever made it to the screen... or that anybody survived the production. The story of this modern classic spanned nearly two decades of wild obstacles as visionary director George Miller tried to mount one of the most difficult shoots in Hollywood history.
Production stalled several times, stars Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron clashed repeatedly in the brutal Namib Desert, and Miller’s crew engineered death-defying action scenes that were among the most dangerous ever committed to film. Even accomplished Hollywood figures are flummoxed by the accomplishment: As the director Steven Soderbergh has said, “I don’t understand how they’re not still shooting that film, and I don’t understand how hundreds of people aren’t dead.”
Kyle Buchanan takes readers through every step of that moviemaking experience in vivid detail, from Fury Road’s unexpected origins through its outlandish casting process to the big-studio battles that nearly mutilated a masterpiece. But he takes the deepest dive in reporting the astonishing facts behind a shoot so unconventional that the film’s fantasy world began to bleed into the real lives of its cast and crew. As they fought and endured in a wasteland of their own, the only way forward was to have faith in their director’s mad vision. But how could Miller persevere when almost everything seemed to be stacked against him
With hundreds of exclusive interviews and details about the making of Fury Road, readers will be left with one undeniable conclusion: There has never been a movie so drenched in sweat, so forged by fire, and so epic in scope. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780063245419Donation: AUD 34.99

Blurred boundaries : questions of meaning in contemporary culture / Bill Nichols Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 1994.

Eisenstein, 1925) ; REALISM ON TV ; REALITY TV ; RACIAL ISSUES ON TV ; RACIAL ISSUES AND TV ; TRUTH IN FILMS ; VIOLENCE ON TV ; WAR AND THE CINEMA ; GULF WAR ON TV ; ETHICS AND TV Summary: "Blurred Boundaries explores decisive moments where the traditional boundaries of fiction/non-fiction and truth/falsehood blur. Nichols argues that the history of social representation in film, television, and video requires an understanding of the fate of both contemporary and older work. Traditionally, film history and cultural studies sought to place films in a historical context. Nichols proposes a new goal: to examine how specific works, old and new, promote or suppress a sense of historical consciousness. Examining work from Eisenstein's Strike to the Rodney King videotape, Nichols interrelates issues of formal structure, viewer response, and historical consciousness. Simultaneously, Blurred Boundaries radically alters the interpretative frameworks offered by neoformalism and psychoanalysis: Comprehension itself becomes a social act of transformative understanding rather than an abstract mental process, while the use of psychoanalytic terms like desire, lack, or paranoia to make social points metaphorically yields to vocabulary designed expressly for historical interpretation - such as project, intentionality, and the social imaginary. An important departure from prevailing trends in many fields, Blurred Boundaries offers new directions for the study of visual culture." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 149-182) and indexISBN: 0253340640 (alk. paper); 0253209005 (paper : alk. paper)LON: 10767942

One of the most comprehensive volumes on Bollywood so far, it focuses on the aesthetic-philosophical questions of the other, Indian diaspora's negotiations with national identity, alternative reading strategies/research methods, marginal genres (sci-fi, horror), marginal characters (flaneuse, vamps), marginal gender (non-normative sexualities), marginal cinema (Hindi avant-garde), marginal language (Hinglish), and marginal regions (the Kashmir valley).

Bollywood plays an important role in the increased dialogue between Australia and India.
Bollywood in Australia: Transnationalism and Cultural Production brings together scholars from India and Australia to explore the transnational impact of Bollywood on public spheres in Australia and to assess its contribution to Australian creative industries.
Countries of the West—Switzerland, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand—have gone out of their way to welcome Bollywood production teams, and Singapore and Bangkok are now using Bollywood to showcase an Asian modernity.
In an age when creative, information and services industries propel economic growth, Bollywood and its modalities of production, distribution and reception are seen as important players in global culture-industry networks."

Call No: 62(04)(73) MILAuthor: Miller, Mark Crispin Edition: 3rd ed.Source: USPlace: Evanston, ILPublisher: Northwestern University PressPubDate: 1989PhysDes: 349 p. : ill. ; 23 cmSubject: 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 BLURBNotes: Includes index; Bibliography: p. 333-335; Includes indexISBN: 080107929Contents: -- 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 --

AUSTRALIA ; PUBLIC BROADCASTING. AUSTRALIA ; SPECIAL BROADCASTING SERVICE ; STATE AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA Summary: "The life and works of 'Aunty', the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, continue to be the subject of public debate and often heated controversy, but they are seldom analysed in any depth. In this book Glyn Davis sets out to take the ABC apart, layer by layer, to reveal the contradictions in purpose and form which bedevil Australia's public broadcasting network. Emphasising the interplay between the ABC and its social and political context, Breaking Up the ABC subjects the recent internal reforms to careful scrutiny. Will these reforms end 'Aunty's' perennial difficulties? Or is the organisation doomed to permanent crisis? Can the corporation, as David Hill hopes, win back an audience and the political support crucial to its continuing existence? Having broken up the institution, how should the pieces be rearranged? This book offers new combinations to ensure the continuing viability of public broadcasting in Australia."--BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes list of abbreviations, bibliographic references and index -- cover illustration and design by John WindusISBN: 0043370047Donation: Donated by Mike Counihan

AUSTRALIA ; CONNOLLY, ROBERT ; LANTANA (AT, Ray Lawrence, 2001) ; LOOK BOTH WAYS (AT, Sarah Watt, 2005) ; BANK, THE (AT/IT, Robert Connolly, 2001) Summary: Mainly about the fortunes of the Australian film industry in 2005, in comparison to the earlier years in the decade. Some interesting stats on The Bank which shine a light on the importance of DVD sales and TV sales on top of Box Office.Notes: accessed from: Factiva. Dow Jones Reuters Business Interactive LLC. RMIT University Library. (14 May 2007). Quotations: -- Assessing the precise value of these additional revenue streams is difficult, but they are important. The experience of the 2001 film The Bank is instructive. Like several of this year's movies, this financial thriller earned about $2.6 million during its original box-office run, which means that about 260,000 Australians saw it on the big screen. But after being released on home formats, and screen on pay and free-to-air TV, its total audience has built to more than 3 million, according to director Robert Connolly.; -- This "accured interest" suggests that the theatrical release can account for less than 10 per cent of a film's eventual audience reach. "My suspicion is that because of the cost of a movie ticket people are increasingly going to the the cinema to see spectable and choosing to see Australian films at home," says Connolly, who also directed Three Dollars. Still, for most films it is the success, however measured, of the theatrical release that largely determines its subsequent fate in other formats, making a strong splash in cinemas just as critical as ever.

Despite this, this is the first book to examine cinematic representations of the father. Brining Up Daddy offers a broad perspective on the Hollywood dad looking at important Hollywood fathers from World War II to the present and discusses films for a variety of genres. The book looks at films decade by decade and adopts a multi-faceted theoretical approach, making use of psychoanalysis, sociology and masculinity studies and contextualising the father figure within both Hollywood and American history. Key films include Since You Went Away, The Search, Rebel without a Cause, The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit, Cape Fear, Kramer vs Kramer, Die Hard, Three Men and a Baby, Boyz n the Hood and Magnolia. In its treatment of the father this unique study discusses why the father is such a seminal character in so many narratives and what he has come to symbolise and represent.

Part guidebook and part manifesto, the book takes a fresh look at what it's like to create work in a world that has become increasingly fragmentary. Through casual and direct discussions Broken Screen offers a detailed navigation through the ideas behind the important yet under-documented visual language of nonlinear narratives, split screens, and fragmentary visual planes that define the most progressive moving images today.ISBN: 1933045264

Brutal vision : the neorealist body in postwar Italian cinema / Karl Schoonover Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 2012.
Call No: 64NEO SCHAuthor: Schoonover, Karl Source: USPlace: MinneapolisPublisher: University of Minnesota PressPubDate: 2012PhysDes: xxxiii, 283 pages : illustrations ; 23 cmSubject: NEOREALISM ; ITALIAN CINEMA Summary: "Film history identifies Italian neorealism as the exempler of national cinema, a specificially domestic response to wartime atrocities. Brutal Vision challenges this orthodoxy by arguing that neorealist films -- including such classics as Rome Open City, Paisan, Shoeshine, and Bicycle Thieves -- should be understood less as national products and more as complex agents of a postwar reorganization of global politics. In his readings on crucial films and newly discovered documents from the archives of neorealism's international distribution, Karl Schoonover reveals how these movies use images of the imperiled body to reconstitute the concept of the human and to recalibrate the scale of human community. Brutal Vision fundamentally revises ideas of cinematic specificity, the human, and geopolitical scale that we inherit from neorealism and its postwar milieu -- ideas that continue to set the terms for political filmmaking today." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9780816675548Contents: Introduction -- An inevitably obscene cinema: Bazin and neorealism -- The North Atlantic ballyhoo of liberal humanism -- Rossellini's exemplary corpse and the sovereign bystander -- Spectacular suffering: De Sica's bodies and charity's gaze -- Neorealism undone: the resistant physicalities of the second generation -- Conclusion

Leading scholars discuss Shakespearean films from a variety of perspectives - as works of art in their own right, as products of the international movie industry, in relation to cinematic and theatrical genres, and as the work of particular directors from Lawrence Olivier and Orson Welles to Franco Zeffirelli and Kenneth Branagh. A guide to further reading and a useful filmography are included." - BOOK BLURBNotes: Filmography: p. 318-324; Includes bibliographical references and index; FilmographyISBN: 0521630231; 0521639751 (pbk.)LON: 21340333Contents: Introduction: Shakespeare, films and the marketplace / Russell Jackson --; Part 1: adaptation and its contexts -- From play-script to screenplay / Russell Jackson -- Video and its paradoxes / Michele Willems -- Critical junctures in Shakespeare screen history: the case of Richard III / Harry Keyishian --; Part 2: genres and plays -- The comedies on film / Michael Hattaway -- Filming Shakespeare's history: three films of Richard III / H.R.

Cannibalilizing queer : Brazilian cinema from 1970 to 2015 / Joao Nemi Neto Detroit: Wayne State University Press, 2021.
Call No: 71-032(81) NEMAuthor: Nemi Neto, Joao Edition: 2021Place: DetroitPublisher: Wayne State University PressPubDate: 2021PhysDes: x, 170 pages ; 24 cmSeries: Queer ScreensSubject: BRAZIL ; HOMOSEXUALITY IN FILMS ; AIDS IN FILMS ; PORNOGRAPHIC FILMS ; CANNIBALISM IN FILMS ; MADAME SATA (BL/FR, Karim Ainouz, 2002) ; MARINS, JOSE MOJICA ; ORGIA OU O HOMEN QUE DEU CRIA (BL, Joao Silverio Trevisan, 1970) Summary: Through an analysis of contemporary Brazilian cinematic production, Cannibalizing Queer: Brazilian Cinema from 1970 to 2015 discusses which queer representations are erased and which are acknowledged in the complex processes of cultural translation, adaptation, and "devouring" that defines the Brazilian understanding of sexual dissidents and minorities. João Nemi Neto argues for Brazilian cinema studies to acknowledge the importance of 1920s modernism and of antropografia, a conceptual mode of cannibalism, to adopt and extrapolate a perverse form of absorption and raise the stakes on queer theory and postcolonialism, and to demonstrate how they are crucial to the development of a queer tradition in Brazilian cinema.
In five chapters and two "trailers," Nemi Neto understands the term "queer" through its political dimensions because the films he analyzes represent characters that conform neither to American coming-out politics nor to Brazilian identity politics. Nonetheless, the films are queer precisely because the queer experiences and affection explored in these films do not necessarily insist on identifying characters as a particular sexuality or gender identity. Therefore, attention to characters within a unique cinematic world raises the stakes on several issues that hinge on cinematic form, narrative, and representation. Nemi Neto interviews and examines the work of Joao Silverio Trevisan and provides readings of films such as AIDS o furor do sexo explícito (AIDS the Furor of Explicit Sex, 1986), and Dzi Croquetes (Dzi Croquetes, 2009) to theorize a productive overlap between queer and antropofagia. Moreover, the films analyzed here depict queer alternative representations to both homonormativity and heteronormativity as forms of resistance, at the same time as prejudice and heteronormativity remain present in contemporary Brazilian social practices.
Graduate students and scholars of cinema and media studies, queer studies, Brazilian modernism, and Latin American studies will value what one early reader called "a point of departure for all future research on Brazilian queer cinema." -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9780814346105Donation: Senses of Cinema

What prompted these changes and how and when did this decolonisation of documentary film production occur? Taking a long historical perspective, this book is based on a study of a selection of Australian documentary films produced by and about Aboriginal peoples since the early twentieth century. The films signpost significant shifts in Anglo-Australian attitudes about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and trace the growth of the Indigenous filmmaking industry in Australia.
Used as a form of resistance to the imposition of colonialism, filmmaking gave Aboriginal people greater control over their depiction on documentary film and the medium has become an avenue to contest widely held assumptions about a peaceful colonial settlement. This study considers how developments in camera and film stock technologies along with filmic techniques influenced the depiction of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. The films are also examined within their historical context, employing them to gauge how social attitudes, access to funding and political pressures influenced their production values. The book aims to expose the course of race relations in Australia through the decolonisation of documentary film by Aboriginal filmmakers, tracing their struggle to achieve social justice and self-representation. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781789974782Contents: Acknowledgements -- Cultural Warning and Acknowledgement -- Abbreviations -- Introduction -- Aboriginalities -- Media Ecology -- The Longue Durée -- Decolonising the Documentary Film in Australia -- Stages of the Journey -- Part I Exotic Subjects, 1901–1966 -- Chapter 1 The Last of Their Kind: Aboriginal Life in Central Australia (1901) -- Chapter 2 Physical Traits: Life in Central Australia (1931) -- Chapter 3 Benign and Iconic: Aborigines of the Sea Coast (1950) -- Chapter 4 The “Last” of Their Kind, Again: Desert People (1967) -- Part II Voices for Change, 1957–1972 -- Chapter 5 Not Dying Out Quietly: Warburton Aborigines (1957) -- Chapter 6 A Discomforting Assimilation: The Change At Groote (1968) -- Chapter 7 Challenging White Indifference: Ningla-A-Na (Hungry for Our Land) (1972) -- Part III Counting the Cost, 1978–1987 -- Chapter 8 Telling My Story My Way: My Survival As An Aboriginal (1978) -- Chapter 9 On Being Stolen: Lousy Little Sixpence (1983) -- Chapter 10 Picking Up the Broken Pieces: Link-Up Diary (1987) -- Part IV Digital Directors: Decolonising Documentary Film, 2002–2017 -- Chapter 11 Setting the Records Straight: Whispering in Our Hearts: The Mowla Bluff Massacre (2002) -- Chapter 12 The Sounds of Spaces Between: Willaberta Jack (2007) -- Chapter 13 Breaking the Drought at the Sydney Film Festival: We Don’t Need a Map (2017), Occupation Native (2017), In My Own Words (2017)and Connecting to Country (2017) -- Bibliography -- Index

Censorship and sexuality in Bombay cinema / Monika Mehta Austin, TX: University of Texas, 2011.
Call No: 440.2(540) MEHAuthor: Mehta, Monika Edition: 1stSource: USPlace: Austin, TXPublisher: University of TexasPubDate: 2011PhysDes: xi, 304 p. : ill. ; 24 cmSubject: SEXUALITY AND THE CINEMA ; CENSORSHIP. INDIA ; BOLLYWOOD ; WOMEN IN FILMS. INDIA ; DILWALE DULHANIYA LE JAYENGE (II, Aditya Chopra, [1995]) ; GUPT GYAN (II, B. K. Adarsh, 1974) ; KHAL NAYAK (II, Subhash Ghai, 1993) Summary: "India produces an impressive number of films each year in a variety of languages. Here, Monika Mehta breaks new ground by analyzing Hindi films and exploring the censorship of gender and heterosexuality in Bombay cinema. She studies how film censorship on various levels makes the female body and female sexuality pivotal in constructing national identity, not just through the films themselves but also through the heated debates that occur in newspapers and other periodicals. The standard claim is that the state dictates censorship and various prohibitions, but Mehta explores how relationships among the state, the film industry, and the public illuminates censorships' role in identity formation, while also examining how desire, profits, and corruption are generated through the act of censoring.
Committed to extending a feminist critique of mass culture in the global south, Mehta situates the story of censorship in a broad social context and traces the intriguing ways in which the heated debates on sexuality in Bombay cinema actually produce the very forms of sexuality they claim to regulate. She imagines afresh the theoretical field of censorship by combining textual analysis, archival research, and qualitative fieldwork (personal interviews and direct observation of censorship committees). By employing this interdisciplinary methodology and mobilizing Michel Foucault's insights on micropractices, Mehta places concerns of representation, film production, film reception, and state interventions in a productive dialogue. Her analysis reveals how central concepts of film studies, such as stardom, spectacle, genre, and sound, are employed and (re)configured within the ambit of state censorship, thereby expanding the scope of their application and impact." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Based on the author's thesis (doctoral)--University of Minnesota, 2001 -- Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9780292726925Donation: donated by Senses of Cinema, 2013Contents: Beginning -- Revisiting the history of film censorship -- Close-up: the Central Board of Film Certification -- The first sex-education film: a classification conundrum -- Satyam shivam sundaram: (im)proper suturing of sound, scar, and stardom -- An anomalous dilemma: to ban or to certify the self-sacrificial wife in Pati parmeshwar -- Tracking the twists and turns in the Khalnayak -- Debates on censorship -- Dilwale dulhania le jayenge: certifying a "family love" story -- From censorship to selections
