Summary: "FEATURING AUSTRALIA follows the exceptional career of Charles Chauvel and the films he made over a thirty-year span in the battling Australian film industry of the 1920s to the 1950s. Stuart Cunningham probes the work of Chauvel to examine his strange, ambitious and fascinating films and the industrial and cultural environment from which they emerged - giving an appreciation of the films which has never before been available. This book also offers new approaches to understanding Australian cinema, and show how Australian culture and society changed during the period of Chauvel's work. Running through these changes, however, are continuities based on Australia's status as an 'import culture' and the consequent frailties of its cultural identity." [Taken from book blurb]

Summary: This book comprises a collection of essays exploring aspects of gender, race and place in selected Australian films in various phases of Australian cinema: from Charles Chauvel’s 'Jedda' (1955), to the ‘period’ films of the New Wave in the 1970s, to the emergence of Indigenous filmmakers in the late 1990s, and the contemporary era of transnational productions in Australia. The spectacle of Australian cinema in these essays suggests the transitional energies of a growing industry and the regional nuances of gender, place and culture. The book draws on a range of scholarly sources and an extensive filmography in investigating Australian cinema history in the latter twentieth century, and in highlighting recent trends in promotion of Australia as a film-production destination

Summary: Filmed in 1955 Jedda was the first Australian feature film to use Aboriginal actors in lead roles, the first to be filmed in colour and the first to be shown at the Cannes film festival. It tells the tragic story of a young Aboriginal girl of the Arunte tribe, adopted by a white woman, Sarah McCann. In this book, Mills unpeels the layers behind the film's story making, explaining why it deserves a place in Australia's cinematic firmament.

Summary: "Set against the shifting social and political backdrop of a nation throwing off the shackles of one war yet faced with the instability of the new world order, Reel Men probes the concept of 1950s masculinity itself, asking what it meant to be an Australian man at this time. Offering a compelling exploration of the Australian fifties, the book challenges the common belief that the fifties was a 'dead' era for Australian filmmaking. Reel Men engages with fourteen Australian feature films made and released between 1949 and 1962, and examines the multiple masculinities in circulation at this time. Dealing with beloved Australian films like Jedda (1955), Smiley (1956), and The Shiralee (1957), and national icons of the silver screen including Chips Rafferty, Charles 'Bud' Tingwell, and Peter Finch, Reel Men delves into our cultural past to dismantle powerful assumptions about film, the fifties, and masculinity in Australia." -- BOOK BACK COVER
